Tapioca flour is derived from the cassava plant, which is a sticky root vegetable, making it hold some great binding properties. Baking with Tapioca is becoming more common with the Paleo movement as it helps give baked goods a better texture. In this recipe we have combined with flaxseed meal and coconut flour to create a paleo friendly combination, and a great nut-free version of savory muffins.
