Gluten Free Passover Carrot Cake Muffins

Alright now I know there is a stigma around passover food in general but I think its because of all of the Matzah meal floating around that makes things takes like, well... CARDBOARD... And I don't know about the rest of you Ashkenazi folk out there but 4 days in and I'm DONE! This recipes uses none of that, and I find that the substitute of almond flour in any of your recipes will work just the same! I even made my usual banana bread subbing out the flour for almond meal... try it! You wont regret it!

Other amazing passover treats include:
Passover Caramel Crunch Candy
Passover S'mores
