Preheat the oven to 375 d F. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan with coconut oil.
Ground almonds and coconut flakes in a flour using a blender or food processor.
In a small bowl combine ground flax seed with 5 Tbsp of water and set aside for 5 minutes to make flax egg.
In a small saucepan heat frozen raspberries and coconut butter on medium-low until it forms a sauce.
In a blender or food processor blend dates + 1/2 cup water to make a date paste.
In a large mixing bowl combine dry ingredients: gluten-free flour, almond/coconut flour, collagen peptides, cacao powder, cacao nibs, cinnamon, and baking powder.
To the dry ingredients mix in raspberry/coconut butter sauce, date paste, and coconut oil.
