These Vegan Blueberry Muffins come together in one bowl and are so ridiculously fluffy and delicious! You’re going to want this recipe on REPEAT- trust me :)
I’ve teased about these muffins on my Instagram for the past couple of weeks and I’m excited to be sharing them today! This banana blueberry muffin recipe is actually the same recipe as this chocolate chip vegan muffin recipe BUT with blueberries instead of chocolate.
It almost seems silly to share the same recipe twice but I can’t tell you HOW many times people have asked me if they can make the muffins with blueberries. I figured I would just make it an official recipe and put that question to rest. The answer is YES these muffins taste amazing with blueberries. In fact, in a way, I like them significantly more with the blueberries! THEY’RE SO GOOD AND FLUFFY! Easily the BEST Blueberry Muffins I’ve ever made.
Another comment that I often get about the chocolate muffins version of this recipe is how much it tastes like banana. Personally, I love the subtle banana taste that these muffins has but I know that it is not for everyone. If banana muffins are not your thing then you can actually swap the banana out for other purees including apple sauce or even pumpkin/ butternut squash puree. Apple sauce ends up rather tasteless in the muffins but it does make the muffins a bit denser and more moist (but still totally delicious!).
How to make these Healthy Blueberry Muffins
I have a video down below on how to make these muffins but it’s super easy and I’ll walk you through it :)
To get the homemade blueberry muffins as FLUFFY as possible, I like to start by sifting all of the dry ingredients in a large bowl. To keep things easy, I mix the wet ingredients right into the same bowl and mix it up.
Lastly, the blueberries get folded in. I actually prefer using frozen berries in muffins. I find that they mix in better but still taste great. However, you can use fresh blueberries as well. I like to buy berries when they are in season and cheap so that I can freeze a bunch of them for later use.
This vegan blueberry muffin recipe makes just SIX muffins. I know that muffin recipes typically make 12 but I often find that to be too many. For a family of 3, eating 12 muffins in the matter of a few days just seems a little excessive, right? BUT, this recipe is easy to double if you would rather make 12. Might I suggest making a half batch of chocolate chip muffins and a half batch of blueberry muffins?? (I’ve never tried that but will be doing so asap!)
Do you need muffin liners?
I find muffin liners completely unnecessary and even a waste. The only time that I find them useful, I guess, is if you’re making muffins/ cupcakes to take to a party. Then it can be nice to have some sort of barrier between the muffins and lots of hands that might be touching them. Otherwise, I just spray the pan well and never have any issues with the muffins sticking at all.
Alternatively, you can use THESE silicon liners that are easy and reusable. I have some and they can be run through the dishwasher which I love! There is also THIS silicone muffin tin which looks rather handy!
That’s all for today!
If you end up making these Healthy Blueberry Muffins then PLEASE please don’t forget to share a pic with me and come back to rate the recipe. It means a lot to me and I always love seeing which recipes of mine that you are making and loving!
I hope that you have a lovely week, friends!

Hi! Is it possible to use oat flour or spelt flour? They look amazing btw :)
Do you know how many calories each muffin has?

Made these last night, they are the best vegan muffins i have made to date!! I dont bake a lot because it always ends in disaster. I had to use whole wheat flour because i was out of regular. Mine took about 30 mins in the oven to be fully done, and the batter made 6 very large muffins. Make sure your nut butter is very runny as it’s one of the wet ingredients, i used very creamy peanut butter

Wow this best dessert for vegan
These are awesome! Thank you so much for sharing. I even got me teenage kids to try them and the both loves them!
★★★★★
omg YAY! SO glad that y’all liked them and thank you so much for coming back to let me know!
I made these last night and they are so delicious! I had to stop myself from eating all 6 of them. They came out blue because the blueberries had melted a little but still an amazing taste. I was going to double the recipe to make 12 but I told myself I should see how they taste first (I now regret making only 6). I was surprised how much they grew without any eggs. I will definitely be making these again. ?

yay so glad that you liked them! I make these often and am constantly surprised HOW MUCH I love them. There’s a reason my recipe on calls for 6 LOL!
Do these freeze well? If so, how long do I microwave from the freezer?
Great, easy to follow recipe, had everything i needed in the house no dodgy flax seed mix. I made blueberry and raspberry muffins sprinkled with milled mixed nuts. Thank you.
★★★★★
I love these! Thanks for the recipe!
★★★★★
An awesome recipe. Mine turned out extremely delish and looked super amazing. Thanks a ton for the recipe❤️
Thank You!! Finally fluffy! An answer to a prayer! I’d been searching for a fluffy egg free muffin for a friend who required organic ingredients and Lakanto Monkfruit sweetener. I only had to switch out the sweetener. You made it it easy peasy to make a variety too!
★★★★★
Delish and easy to make. Will definitely make again.

I have made these with frozen blueberries, fresh blueberries, a chopped raspberry/blueberry combo, a combo of blueberries and chopped-up dried cherries, and most recently 2/3 goji berries & 1/3 chopped dried cherries (outstanding!). I chopped a few walnuts and added them also a few times. I added chocolate chips to blueberries once. It’s such a versatile recipe! The recipe is so easy and scrumptious! I used organic wheat flour. I love having control of all the ingredients in that all of the ingredients in these muffins are always certified organic. No soy lecithin or weird oils which you get from store bought muffins. These aren’t too sweet. They are amazing. We are nuts over this recipe! The only downfall is that it’s really, really hard not to have more than one in a day. REALLY HARD!
★★★★★
All of your muffin recipes are delicious and this one is no exception. Definitely a keeper. I wonder how it would taste if some lemon zest was added? I may try it next time :)
★★★★★
The BEST muffin in my vegan&glutenfree jurney so far!!! Love to make and eat it too, it’s so easy and delicious!
Thank you!!!
****I used self-raising gluten free flour, so I just skip the baking soda&powder****

I’m wondering how sugar free applesauce would work in place of banana? Thoughts?
