Thank you SO MUCH !

These muffins fill the house with Holiday Scents, mine stayed moist with tones of flavor and the icing was delightful and gently spicy. If you are into Paleo Coffee, I use the icing for that too.

Can I substitute the almond flour for something else as I have an allergy with almonds & peanuts?
Elena Wistey says
I bet we could do a combo of other nut flours… like pecan, walnut, and coconut. I will experiment with what I have in mind this week and reply to your comment again with what I find.

I was diagnosed with SIBO but also going dairy free. Could I substitute Ghee for the butter and get the correct consistency for the icing?
Elena Wistey says
Hi Susan!
Ghee acts very differently than butter. You will not get the same consistency. Ghee has a much higher fat content so it will act more like coconut oil. You may need to warm up the Ghee to soften it to be able to mix it, then let it cool to a thicker consistency. I think the best option would be to try to get a bit of a glaze out of it instead of a thicker butter.
