Description

Easy recipe for healthy blueberry muffins.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour (180 grams)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 cup apple sauce (63.75 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup honey (84 grams)
  • 1/3 cup milk (75.7 grams)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries (150 grams)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line your muffin tin with paper liners in 6 spots. Fill the rest of the muffin holes with a small amount of water.
  2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
  3. Add in the apple sauce, oil, honey, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Only stir until there are no streaks of flour left. The batter will be very thick.
  4. Gently fold in the frozen blueberries.
  5. Fill 6 muffin cups all the way to the rim of the muffin liners.
  6. Bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 13 minutes, do not open your oven. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 12 to 14 more minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out with just a few crumbs.

Notes

  • Frozen blueberries should not be thawed first. If you use fresh blueberries, your muffins will cook faster. Be sure to start checking on them after about 7 minutes of turning down the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Starting the muffins out at a high temperature and then reducing the temperature, allows for high muffin tops. Keep your oven closed for it to work.
  • Cinnamon and lemon zest can be added. Add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon in step two or 2 teaspoons of lemon zest in step three.
