Scallion Goat Cheese Muffins

Preparation

1. Step 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 10 muffin cups with paper liners.

   Step 2

   In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, salt, baking soda, and black pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil and eggs. Blend the wet ingredients into the almond flour mixture with a handheld mixer until thoroughly combined, then stir in the scallions.

   Step 3

   Scoop 3 tablespoons of batter into each prepared muffin cup, then press 1 tablespoon of goat cheese into each muffin.

   Step 4

   Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted 1/2 inch from the edge of the muffin (to avoid the goat cheese center) comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then serve.
