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).
