Bracha on Almond flour muffins

Question:

My wife baked some muffins with the main ingredient being White Almond Flour which is ground Almonds she also puts some Pumpkin puree my question is what bracha do I make on this muffin a Ha-aytz or a shehakol, thank you

Answer:

From your question it sounds like there isn’t any wheat flour etc. in the recipe, and only flour and puree. The bracha on almond flour and any puree is shehakol. The reason is because foods that were ground up and lost their original identity lose their hoadomo etc. status and become shehakol.
