Almond Flour Breakfast Muffins or Bread Base

I found this basic recipe on a low carb site, and played around with it until I liked it.

Almond Flour Breakfast Muffins or Bread Base

6 cups 
almond flour/almond meal

4 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter, melted

8 eggs

2/3 cup water

2/3 cup honey

see note below for flavor variations
Preheat oven to 350 F.

Butter a 9 X 13 pan.

Mix dry ingredients together well.

Add wet ingredients and mix thoroughly.

Pour into the 9 X 13 pan.
Bake for 30 minutes, then drop the temperature to 325 and bake an additional 15 minutes or until done through.

Variations: 
Add 2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries for blueberry muffins. 
For fruit muffins, take a teaspoon of jam on each muffin and push it in slightly (it will sink more during baking). 
You can add a tsp of vanilla, some mashed bananas and nuts for a banana bread variation. 
I baked this plain, as-is and warmed home canned strawberries to pour over squares of the bread. It would be wonderful with fresh whipped cream and freshly sliced berries, too.
