- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup tapioca starch
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
- ⅓ cup melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, maple syrup, applesauce, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- You can use a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water, let sit for 5 minutes) for a vegan option.
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the batter.
- Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
