Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups almond flour finely ground, not almond meal
  • 1/3 cup granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add-Ins
  • 3/4 cup fresh blueberries or frozen, not thawed

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well with butter or coconut oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt until well combined and no lumps remain.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined. Do not overmix—a few small lumps are fine.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them. If using frozen berries, add them directly from the freezer to prevent bleeding.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-22 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
  8. Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days, refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
Frozen Blueberries: If using frozen, do not thaw—add directly to batter to prevent purple streaks throughout.
Sweetener Swap: Allulose works well if you prefer a sweetener without a cooling effect.
Make It Dairy-Free: Substitute melted coconut oil for the butter.
