No reviews

These Paleo Blueberry Muffins are light, fluffy, and naturally gluten-free. Made without almond flour, they combine coconut flour and golden flaxseed for a soft texture, sweetened with maple syrup and packed with fresh blueberries. A perfect grain-free and healthier muffin option for breakfast or a snack!

  • Total Time: 30-35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

2 eggs

2/3 cup pure maple syrup (or 1/2 cup honey)

1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons ground golden flaxseed

1/4 cup coconut milk

2 Tablespoons oil (light-tasting olive oil recommended)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Zest of 1 lemon

1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons coconut flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

Generous 2/3 cup fresh blueberrie

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, maple syrup (or honey), coconut milk, oil, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until fully combined.

  • In a separate bowl, mix together coconut flour, ground golden flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until smooth. The batter will be thicker than traditional muffin batter due to the coconut flour.

  • Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to break them apart.

  • Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

  • Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 2 months.

For a different flavor, swap the blueberries for other berries like raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries.

To make these muffins vegan, substitute eggs with flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water per egg).
