Almond Cupcakes with Coffee-Cashew Cream (Gluten-Free)

So these healthy almond cupcakes with coffee-cashew cream are clearly my weakness. It's good they only contain healthy ingredients, no flour and are honey-sweetened. I don't even know, what do I like the most about them - either the fluffy almond base or the delicious coffee cream, apparently a combination of both.

Almond cupcakes are completely flourless and gluten-free, the main role in the dough plays the almond flour (prepared by mixing or grinding almonds), followed by eggs, honey, nut butter, milk, baking powder and cinnamon. If you want to cook the basis in cocoa version, you can add cocoa into the dough. Again, it is quite easy to prepare coffee-cashew cream, just mix the soaked cashew nuts with a little bit of ground coffee beans, yogurt, honey and cocoa. Yummy, I cannot wait to do this healthy dessert again.

Try to prepare these fit cupcakes just for yourself or for family parties, I'm sure you will impress with them. I recommend this recipe eagerly. And if you are not, by chance, a fan of cupcakes or you are lazy to decorate them (I don't judge), you can easily prepare gluten-free healthy almond muffins from the dough and serve them as they are.
