Healthy Blueberry Muffins

You guys! When my mom tasted this recipe, she said…” I think that’s one of the best things you’ve ever done”! I have to say, it’s one of my top five favorites! A Saturday morning experiment turned into the best Healthy Blueberry Muffins ever! They have the same texture as a bakery-style blueberry muffin, but they’re made with whole ingredients, and they’re gluten, dairy, and nut-free.

Healthy Blueberry Muffins

These muffins are sweetened with coconut sugar and maple syrup, and their base is gluten-free all-purpose flour. I think you all know I’m a chocolate lover, I already tasted Peanut Butter Chocolate Marble Muffins and so many chocolate muffins before, I rarely love a recipe that doesn’t have chocolate in the name, but these are just to die for! The recipe makes 8 muffins, I typically like to make things in smaller batches since I do so much baking, but if you have a bigger group or want to make more, you can double the batch and make 16!

These muffins can be a dessert, or you can pair them with some fresh fruit and coffee for a tasty breakfast. They’re also great for meal prep, if you want to make a large batch, store them in the freezer, and take them out for breakfasts during the week!
