Paleo blueberry muffins
Tender almond flour muffins that are packed with blueberries and brightened with lemon, sweetened with just three spoonfuls of honey. The batter is thick enough to hold the fruit in place, so you get berries in every bite.

Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour, finely ground
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 4 large eggs
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups blueberries, fresh, or frozen and not thawed
Steps
- Heat the oven to 325°F and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
- Whisk the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
- Whisk the eggs, honey, lemon juice and vanilla in a second bowl, then stir them into the dry mix. Leave for 3 minutes, so the coconut flour thickens the batter.
- Fold in the blueberries and divide the batter among the cups.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden and a skewer in the center comes out clean; these are soft with fruit, so go by the skewer. Let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then move them to a rack. They keep 4 days in the fridge and freeze for 3 months; warm them for 20 seconds in the microwave.
Good to know
Can I use frozen blueberries?
Yes. Fold them in straight from the freezer and add about 3 minutes to the baking time.
Can I use maple syrup in place of honey?
Yes, it is a straight swap, for about the same score.

Computed from the ingredients with our published formula, not yet kitchen-tested. How
As written, 1999 kcal goes into the pot and 799 g of ingredients comes out as about 706 g of food: 283 kcal per 100 g. Cooking moves water and energy density is the score's biggest lever, so the dish is scored as cooked, not as an average of its parts. Every ingredient links to its food page, with the same data and score. The label's percentages are each macronutrient's share of the calories. The full formula.
