These muffins use almond flour and a sugar-free sweetener to create a tender, moist crumb filled with fresh blueberries. The batter is seasoned with vanilla extract and baked until golden to mimic the style of a traditional bakery treat. The result is a soft, fruit-filled muffin made with simple ingredients.

About This Recipe

To prepare the muffins, the almond flour and leavening agents are combined with eggs, melted butter, and almond milk to form a thick, rich batter. The blueberries are gently folded in at the final stage to prevent the juice from discoloring the mixture before it is divided into a lined muffin tin. It is important to bake the muffins until a toothpick comes out clean, ensuring the center is fully set while the exterior remains light and buttery.

The flavor relies on the natural sweetness of the blueberries balanced by the nutty undertones of the almond flour and the aromatic notes of vanilla. Using powdered erythritol or allulose allows the sweetener to dissolve completely, resulting in a smooth texture without any grainy residue. Since the recipe uses butter or coconut oil, the muffins maintain a decadent mouthfeel that complements the tartness of the fruit.

These muffins work well for breakfast and can be prepared ahead of time for easy storage. It’s easy to customize the batch by adding lemon zest for a bright citrus note or swapping the blueberries for raspberries to vary the flavor. These muffins are best served warm, offering a structured and portable meal that pairs well with coffee or tea.
