Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with a little coconut oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are well mixed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, and melted coconut oil until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 6 muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Jumbo Paleo Blueberry Muffins warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
Tips
- Choose Fresh Blueberries: For the best flavor and texture, opt for fresh blueberries. If using frozen, be sure to thaw them and pat them dry to avoid excess moisture in the batter.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until everything is incorporated. Overmixing can lead to dense muffins, so a gentle hand is key!
- Perfectly Measure Almond Flour: Use a spoon to scoop almond flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife. This prevents packing, which can result in dry muffins.
- Add a Crunch: For an extra texture boost, consider sprinkling some chopped nuts or seeds on top of the batter before baking.
- Check for Doneness: Ovens can vary, so start checking your muffins at the 20-minute mark. They should be golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
- Cool Before Storing: Allow the muffins to cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container. This helps maintain their moisture and freshness.
- Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to mix in other ingredients like lemon zest or cinnamon for a unique twist on the classic blueberry muffin. Enjoy baking and savoring these delicious treats!
