You won’t believe that these blueberry muffins are gluten-free, but they are! The recipe has much in common with my Healthy Blueberry Muffins, but it uses almond flour instead of regular flour. No xanthan gum, no starches, just simple ingredients built around one gluten-free flour.

Transitioning a recipe from conventional wheat-based flour to almond flour is never straightforward. It requires reducing the amount of liquid, since almond flour is less absorbent, and fat, since almond flour naturally contains some. It took over ten tries to get the texture of this muffin just right, but it was worth the effort.

Like any great blueberry muffin, they’re golden on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and punctuated by jammy blueberries. Unlike most blueberry muffins, this recipe is quite wholesome but still tastes like a treat.

These chocolate chip muffins are divine—they’re fluffy, tender and studded throughout with chocolate chips. They’re our three-year-old daughter’s current favorite muffin in my muffin repertoire, and I understand why! She loves dark chocolate as much as I do, so I can vouch that these muffins delight kids and adults alike.

These muffins follow the same formula as my other popular “healthy” muffin recipes, but you won’t guess it upon your first (or last) bite. They’re made with whole wheat flour if you wish, and they’re sweetened with honey instead of plain sugar, which makes them extra delicious. Greek yogurt offers a subtle sour cream-like tang that makes these taste like bakery-style muffins, while providing some extra protein.

If you’re a fan of my popular banana muffins or blueberry muffins, you must try this recipe!
