Almond Flour Muffins - These amazing bakery-style chocolate chip muffins are grain, gluten, and dairy-free! Perfect for a delicious Paleo Breakfast!

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! Usually, hungry, and wanting to fuel for the day, I never miss breakfast! But, I also stick to grain, gluten, and dairy-free, so it has to be tasty, right?!
These muffins are best served and eaten the day they are made but will keep in an airtight container for a day.
