Just make sure to double the batch, they’ll be gone in no time!

    These are absolutely delicious! I substituted coconut sugar for the raw sugar, but other than that followed the recipe exactly. They are moist and each muffin is full of blueberries. Will definitely be making them again.

    Great recipe, as always! I ended up putting half the batter with blueberries that needed to be used up in my fridge, and the other half with dark chocolate chips. I also subbed the cane sugar for coconut palm sugar and baked as full size muffins. Both inclusions turned out yummy and surprisingly, the blueberry ones are sweeter tasting. I might add a little more sugar to the dark chocolate chip ones if I make again.

    I made this using blueberry yogurt and olive oil – they are fantastic. I gifted to three families and have already heard back these were the best they every had. Definitely a keeper recipe.

  4. Loved these! My favorite blueberry muffins hands down. Did half reg flour and half almond flour, half olive oil and half avo.oil, didn’t have sourdough discard so used yoghurt instead… delicious!!!! will be making these on repeat. Thank you!!

    Made these with strawberries over the summer and we gobbled them up. Just did a fall batch replacing the avocado oil with butter, the blueberries with chopped apples and topped them with streusel. My kids love this recipe!

    These were a big hit in my house! This is a good use of sourdough discard, the kids gobbled them up! I used a regular sized muffin tin and it made 12 which I baked for roughly 30 minutes until just barely golden on top and a toothpick inserted in teh middle came out clean.
