Low Carb Lemon Ricotta Muffins

I have been trying to stay away from sugar lately to control my migraines (no fun when you bake to relieve stress but can't eat it!) So I thought I would try to come up with a lemon muffin that not only was low carb but had a bit of protein in it too. These were a hit in our house, River has been calling them cake, and seem to help quell that sweet craving that hits mid afternoon.  I have baked with almond flour a few times and know it can be tricky due to his fat content. It doesn't absorb moisture like other baking flours-wheat, rice, bean, tapioca ect. The batter for these muffins is very thick because we don't want extra liquid that will turn them soupy or custard-y.

Hopefully she doesn't kill me because I am not sharing her sauce recipe as she sent it to me. Its a mash-up of her recipe with a lasagna recipe I found online that I felt would be vastly improved if made the sauce like Tara's secret recipe.  So here we go. I have served this for many Christmas Parties, Sunday dinners, and any day that would be made better by a slice of homemade lasagna.  For the Meat Sauce: Enough Extra Virgin Olive Oil to cover the bottom of a heavy stock pot 1 Onion, diced 5-6 cloves of Garlic, chopped 4 14 oz cans Diced Tomatoes 2 14 oz cans Tomato Sauce 1 6 oz can Tomato Paste 1/2 C Red Wine Handful of fresh Pars...
