    Ingredients for rice flour cacao muffins.
    • White rice flour: I use plain white rice flour, but you can substitute it with brown rice flour.

    • Cacao powder: I use unsweetened cacao powder.

    A little girl is putting colorful chocolate on muffins.

    My 3-year-old daughter helped me put some chocolate on and made the muffins more cheerful! Feel free to add some toppings if you like!

    Here are topping ideas:

    • Chopped nuts
    • Chocolate chips
    • Sliced bananas

    Storage

    They will be good for two days at room temperature and three days in the fridge.

    They will last for one month when wrapped with cling film and stored in the freezer.
