Spelt Gingerbread Muffins

Did I listen to Christmas music while I created these? I may have. Did I enjoy every second? you can bet your boots on it. I'll link my favorite Christmas station here just in case you want to imagine Thanksgiving is already over, there's snow on the ground, and your trying to keep your fire going. Also my first go at creating this recipe was not great. Flavor was there, 100%. But this is the first time since I have started this series that I had to try again. Also if you have special requests for a muffin recipe, let me know! I am happy to create on for you that has fresh milled flour and doesn't have refined sugar!

Also these are completely delightful. We discussed making an icing, but ultimately they can stand on their own just fine. Why ruin a good thing.

Grease the muffin tin with coconut oil or butter, or use muffin paper. Fill each 3/4 full, will make a perfect dozen. Bake 18-20 minutes.
