These Rhubarb Muffins made with coconut flour are super easy, delicious, stay moist for days and are gluten free, dairy free and can be made nut free if you avoid a couple of ingredients. Baking with coconut flour can be tricky but as long as you follow a recipe, you're good to go. Coconut flour would probably be my most favourite gluten free flour to bake with for it's flavour and the way it keeps baking moist. If you don't have any rhubarb or it's out of season, you can just swap it out with any other seasonal fruit like blueberries, passionfruit, strawberries or just have them plain. You can find coconut flour generally at supermarkets now or your local health food store or Bin Inn.
