I will admit that I was dreaming of my mom’s braided cardamom currant bread this holiday season. I started thinking about how fragrant and delicious the cardamom spice is. One thought leading to another, I decided to start simple, with some grain free cardamom currant muffins. These are easy to whip up in about 10 minutes, and bake in less than 20 minutes.

As you are making these don’t forget to inhale the heady fragrance of the ground cardamom! These pair beautifully with some hearty winter soup, or with eggs and bacon on a Saturday morning.

Enjoy, and let me know what you think in the comments below!
