Saturday Morning Cinnamon Muffins

Since this morning is my son's actual second birthday, I decided to make a special breakfast treat. We had a nice serving of scrambled eggs and some of these delicious cinnamon muffins. Good luck not eating the entire batch.

Paleo Cinnamon Muffins

2 cups almond flour (I used Honeyville)
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 almond oil
1/4 walnut oil
1/4 cup agave nectar (or honey)
6 eggs
2 egg whites, beaten to stiff peaks

Topping
2 tbsp cinnamon
1/4 cup agave (or honey)
2 tbsp walnut (or almond) oil

Mix together topping ingredients in small bowl and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line muffin tins with paper liners. Mix together almond and coconut flours and salt. In separate bowl mix oils, agave and eggs. Combine wet and dry ingredients until well blended. Fold in beaten egg whites. Fill muffin cups until about 3/4 full. Top with a heaping teaspoonful of the topping mixture. Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!
