I really enjoyed this recipe! Cassava is one of the only flours I can eat so I’m always on the search for good recipes with it. I did not experience any issues with the batter, baking, or flavor- just the muffins sticking to the paper liners. Nothing a little scraping with my fork couldn’t fix 🙂
If you are expecting the texture to be like gluten based products or even a grain based GF product you might be disappointed. Cassava just isn’t going to give you that. Being used to cassava, I thought the flavor was good and the texture was exactly what I expected it to be. They were so quick and easy to throw together- I will be making these again!

In reply to Mimi. Thank you so much, Mimi! I would recommend cutting down to 1 tsp of baking soda. Thank you for the kind review!

I followed the recipe exactly how it’s written and these turned out amazing. I love the taste however just one thing I didn’t like was a slight taste of baking soda- is there any way I can change this or is yours like this as well? Everything else is perfect I love this GF option for my diet.

Sorry I edited to give a 5 star rating!

I was a little scared about how these would come out after reading some of the comments. But they came out so good! They’re fluffy and moist. It has the consistency of what you’d expect from something with gluten. I did omit and add in some ingredients. I didn’t use lemon zest, and I added apple pulp (I made apple juice earlier today). I also used semi-thawed wild blueberries and 200ml of coconut milk (Menina Portuguese brand. It comes in a glass bottle). I’m not dairy-free, so I used the Kerrygold Irish butter. I also used date sugar. I melted some of the butter in the microwave and poured it on top of the room temp butter, softened it, and made it easier to mix. I’m glad I found this recipe. Since I learned I’m gluten intolerant, I haven’t baked anything from scratch that actually tastes good and I enjoyed being able to do it again!

I put 1/2 cup sugar instead of 1/4. They tasted baking soda even with the sugar increase.. After 20 minutes cooking they were in an almost liquid form, it took 20 minutes more of cooking to get spongy muffins that hold together. The recipe probably works with another flour like wheat or mixed gluten free but not cassava.

I agree with other comments that this needed more sugar and blueberries and mine turned out with kind of an odd texture. Kinda rubbery.

In reply to Chris. Grass fed butter is considered Paleo. Feel free to use ghee.

How is butter Paleo?
