The Best Paleo Blueberry Muffins

The best paleo blueberry muffins ever! They have a great texture, like angel food cake, and a delicious almond taste. Grain-free, gluten-free and dairy-free.

I wanted to hold off on posting these paleo blueberry muffins until it got a bit cooler but they’re just so good I can’t keep them to myself any longer. After making my paleo chocolate chip muffins, I knew I had to make a blueberry version.

And I’m so happy I did because these are my favorite blueberry muffins ever. Scratch that. Favorite muffins ever. They’re light and have an awesome texture, almost like angel food cake!

The Best Paleo Blueberry Muffins Ever – their angel food-like texture and almond flavor make them totally irresistible! Grain-free, gluten-free and dairy-free.

You know how some paleo muffins have this eggy, weird texture thing going on? Not these. Beating the egg whites and then folding them into the batter seems to make all the difference and creates the angel food-like texture (here’s some actual gluten-free angel food cake!).

And the flavor?! I’ve probably mentioned it about 14 times, but I have something of an almond extract addiction. That + a whole bunch of blueberries and I can hardly contain myself.

I thought the coconut sugar would be a little strange in these or would conflict with the almond extract but nope. It was perfect.

I have to say that I made the hazelnut version of these muffins (these paleo hazelnut muffins) seven times before posting them and they came out a little differently every time. Sometimes they had the angel food cake thing going on and sometimes they were more like normal muffins.

I’ve only made these three times and they’ve been angel food cake-ish every time so I have hope that that’s just how they are.

Maybe the difference is unblanched hazelnut meal versus blanched almond flour? Or maybe it was just the weather.

One thing I’ve learned is to use a glass or stainless steel bowl when beating the egg whites. Oil residue on some plastic bowls can prevent the egg whites from beating properly.

It worked in some of my plastic bowls, but in one, I couldn’t even get them to soft peaks. It happened a few times so I’m sure it’s not a coincidence. One time all I could get was soft peaks and I decided to bake them, anyway. They still came out perfectly!

If this egg beating business sounds too cumbersome, try these gluten-free mini blueberry muffins from What The Fork Blog!

The Best Paleo Blueberry Muffins
  • Prep Time:
  • Cook Time:
  • Ready in:
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs, divided, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (100 grams) coconut sugar (please weigh this! If you don't have a scale, pack your cups super tight)
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons water
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons almond extract
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 160 grams (this is about 1 cup + 9 1/2 tablespoons) blanched almond flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups (280 grams) fresh blueberries, divided
  • about 1/4 cup (20 grams) sliced almonds, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 °F (167 °C) and line a muffin pan with 12 liners.
  2. Place the egg whites in a medium glass or stainless steel mixing bowl and the egg yolks in a large mixing bowl (glass or plastic is fine). If you don't have a glass or stainless steel bowl for the egg whites, make sure your plastic mixing bowl is super clean and free of any oil residue as this can interfere with beating the egg whites.
  3. Beat the egg whites and 2 1/2 tablespoons (31 grams) coconut sugar at high speed until stiff peaks form (about 30-90 seconds). Keep the beaters in the mixer.
  4. In the bowl with the egg yolks, add the remaining 69 grams coconut sugar, water, vanilla extract and almond extract. Beat for about 30-60 seconds at high speed or until thickened and lighter in color. Mix in the salt and then use a silicone spatula to fold in the almond flour.
  5. Fold in the egg white mixture to the egg yolk mixture just until combined. Do not over mix but make sure it's thoroughly combined.
  6. Fold in 1 1/4 cups (175 grams) blueberries. Fill each liner almost all the way full. Sprinkle some sliced almonds on top, if desired, and then sprinkle a tablespoon of blueberries on top of the almonds.
  7. Bake for 21-23 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops of the muffins no longer appear wet. They should feel springy when touched. The muffins will rise quite a bit but will fall back down during cooling.
  8. Let cool for 3 minutes in the pan and then carefully remove the muffins from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. Cover and store at room temperature for 24 hours or refrigerate for up to 3 days. These get quite moist on the second day! I prefer them straight from the oven or some hours after baking.

    Made these for the first time today with my toddler son and they turned out great!

    Was wondering if I could add some coconut flour next time maybe they turn out to be a little bit more firm and less moist? What is your opinion on this?

    Trying your peanut butter cookies next :) your banana chocolate chip muffins are always a hit btw, I keep making them every time I have over-ripe bananas!

      I’m sorry for just now seeing your question! Adding a little coconut flour should work fine. I haven’t tried it so I don’t know how much, though. I wouldn’t add any more than a 1 tablespoon as it’s super absorbent. I love that you made these with your son. :) I hope you’ll enjoy the cookies just as much! Thanks so much for your comment!

    These muffins are so good!! My 5 year old helped me make them and even though she probably over-stirred the egg whites, the muffins came out great. The almond extract gives them an amaretto-like flavor (one of my faves). The texture is so light and fluffy! The almond flavor is strong so if isn’t one of your faves consider switching it up for another or just using vanilla. But we liked it just as it is! My daughter really wanted to make strawberry muffins so we will try that with this recipe next. Thanks for a GREAT recipe!!

    The flavor of these is delicious! However, mine fell apart. I used a silicone muffin pan and when I tried to get them out (running a toothpick around the edge of each muffin cup), they started coming apart. Ate with a spoon and enjoyed but am wondering if I did something wrong or if maybe I just can’t use a silicone muffin pan with this recipe.

      I don’t bake with silicone because I often had problems with it when I did (especially with grain-free recipes) so I haven’t tested this recipe with silicone. I would definitely recommend using liners!

      I’ve never used it so I’m not really sure. Does it say on the bag that it’s a 1-to-1 sub for granulated sugar? If so, it’d probably work. Sorry I don’t have a better answer for you!

    Hi!

    Plan on making these over the weekend. I don’t see any leaveners in the ingredients list. Will the egg white foam be enough to help the muffins rise? Could I add a 1/4 tsp of cream of tartar to stabilize the egg whites?

    Thanks in advance!

      Hi! Sorry for just now seeing your question. The recipe is correct as written. :) I haven’t tried adding cream of tartar to these muffins (or anything other than angel food cake) so I can’t really recommend it. But it’s really not needed! How I and the reviewers made them is as you see in the recipe.

    I was wondering if you have the nutritional breakdown of these? Like how much fat and protein and carbs, etc.
    my coconut sugar is brown and the muffins came out pretty dark. Could that be the reason? The batter was medium beige color

    Thank you.

I don’t know if you can tell by the pictures, but my muffins were also kind of beige. They’re definitely not white like regular muffins made with all-purpose flour. I hope you still enjoyed them!

    These are really good! I was really scared when baking as it was my first time baking with almond flour. Also, the resultant batter looked too “foamy” because of the folded in whipped egg white. My very picky hubby said this is a keeper. He was also glad that a paleo muffin can taste so good.

    I made these this morning — great recipe! I don’t have a food scale, so did my best with the measurements provided and my muffins came out great. The separating of eggs, separate processes and careful folding are well worth the extra effort (I’m a lazy and reluctant baker).

    My Modifications:

    I flip-flopped the amounts of almond extract and vanilla extract, as I like almond as a “hint” but love vanilla. Happy with how this came out… the almond note is still there. :-)

    The recipe is much appreciated!

    Hi Erin,
    I tried these muffins today. They were very good! The problem for me was that I don’t have a mixer; I just have a Braun food processor. So when I mixed the egg whites I never got them to beat up to a fluffy egg white. The coconut sugar is quite sweet too. Anyway I just kept following the recipe and somehow they turned out okay. I used pecans instead of almonds. The food processor is plastic so maybe that’s why the egg whites never beat up to nice peaks. Anyway they were’nt a failure. I might get a hand mixer and try them again.

      Hi Elizabeth! I’m so sorry that I just now saw your comment. I hope you’ll try them again with a hand mixer so that the egg whites will beat properly. Then I really think you’ll find them better than okay. :) And if you don’t get one but want to try them again, just make sure the plastic bowl is totally free of any oily residue. I definitely had that issue a few times when I used plastic bowls! Thanks for your comment.

        You can ALWAYS use a whisk to make fluffy egg whites…..and a metal bowl (glass in a pinch) copper if you have it. It just takes a lot of whisking.

    These came out so fabulous! I was worried because I was trying to use up some sour blueberries and the coconut sugar doesn’t taste very sweet to me. But once they cooked, the blueberries were much better and these are just sweet enough. The texture is AWESOME!! They are so light and fluffy, and they do not taste eggy at all. Also, I don’t have a kitchen scale, and they still came out perfect even though the coconut sugar I bought doesn’t really pack (not like brown sugar does). Thank you for such a great recipe!!

          Hi Erin,
          I did the recipe but with strawberries instead of blueberries. The flavor was fine, however, the texture was way too “moist” for my liking. I think this is probably because of the strawberries since you said it might make them too watery.I will try again later this week with blueberries as the original recipe intended and will let you know how they turn out ;)

If you’re not worried about some blue streaks, I’d thaw them first and pat them dry. That way, you don’t have to adjust the baking time. Hope you’ll enjoy them! :)

    Help! What did I do wrong? I just made these blueberry muffins, followed the recipe to the letter & they went in stiff & came out unmoved, blueberries still not well combined (I thought when in the oven the batter would soften & all would blend in) & I didn’t/couldn’t fold any more as the dough was so stiff it wouldn’t allow. They didn’t rise at all & not very sweet either :( reluctant to use another batch of almond flour are you sure no either raising agent is needed? I whisked the whites well as directed.

      August 10, 2016 @ 4:27 pm

      I’ve made these and a hazelnut version about a dozen times so I’m sure no other raising agent is needed! It really sounds like something went wrong. The egg yolk + almond flour mixture may be a little thick, but adding the egg whites shouldn’t be a problem at all. And once the egg white and egg yolk mixture is combined, it shouldn’t be stiff at all. It should be puffy and light. Do you live in the US? Sometimes ingredients can vary from country to country. Did you use almond flour that’s made of blanched and ground almonds or did you use defatted almond flour, which is like a powder? That kind of flour is very rare in the US (I’ve never seen it and have never come across a recipe calling for it) but perhaps it’s more common in other countries. That could explain the problem. Did you use something other than coconut sugar? I ask because I think these muffins are plenty sweet, so perhaps you accidentally didn’t add the right amount? That kind of things happens to me all the time. I’m positive I followed the recipe and then realize that I added the wrong amount or something like that. I’m sorry it didn’t work for you! Hopefully we can figure out what the problem was. :)

        Hi Erin, I live in the UK where Almond Flour, as opposed to ground almonds, is available although expensive & I fear this is where I went wrong & should have used ground almonds which is mealy whereas the flour is a fine flour (as the name suggests!)I am so upset as I have tons of ground almonds & am pretty sure this would have made the light & moist muffins as pictured. So I’ve now used precious almond flour unnecessarily & ruined the muffins :( I will have to try again just to see if this is the case as everything else is as the recipe states.

          Hi Katherine! There are only two other reviews from people who have made these muffins, but they’ve both been positive so I’m sure the flour must have been the culprit. I’m so sorry they didn’t come out for you! In the US, almond flour refers to what you’re calling ground almonds (almond flour is indeed ground almonds, but it’s still called almond flour). As far as I know, defatted almond flour isn’t even sold in the US. I just googled it and couldn’t find a source. I only know about the defatted kind because I once ordered something that translated to “almond flour” in Germany and it was the defatted kind, which I wasn’t even aware existed up until this point. I hope you’ll have better luck using the other kind of almond flour. :)

        Yep, that was definitely the cause! Just made them again with Ground Almonds & they came out perfectly! So, assuming I’m not the only UK follower, perhaps a language/terminology note to use ground almonds and NOT Almond Flour in case anyone is unsure. Thanks for another wonderful Paleo treat, your recipes make all the difference to maintaining abstinence from regular sweet treats. Hope my feedback was helpful rather than negative :)

          Yay! I’m happy they came out well this time. Your feedback wasn’t negative at all! And I appreciate you not leaving a bad rating after you made them the first time. ;) I just checked the stats on this post and less than 1% of the people who viewed it are from the UK and in the list showing the breakdown of where people are viewing it from, the UK is #8. It’s hard for me to anticipate ingredient differences for all those countries so I think what I’ll do is make a note at the bottom of the recipes saying something like, “If you live outside of the US, please check out my ingredients page, where I talk about ingredient differences.” I need to do a lot updating to it first, though. For example, since I wrote that, I’ve discovered that German (and I’m guessing all EU) eggs are sized differently. So when I write large eggs in a recipe, Europeans need to use medium eggs. I didn’t know this the first few years I blogged and used large German eggs (which are actually American medium) and very, very rarely get a comment about a recipe not coming out well so it must not make a big difference… but still. And thanks for the kind words about my recipes! That’s great that they help you abstain from the regular stuff. :)

    Coconut sugar? Can you use anything else? They look so yummy!

      Because you have to beat the egg whites together with the sugar, I don’t think anything would work other than coconut sugar or granulated sugar. Sorry about that! If you try them out, I hope you’ll enjoy them. :)

    I’ve tried making almond flour muffins just once so far, and I felt like they turned out too gooey (even after baking longer than the recipe called for and having a toothpick come out clean). Is this the problem that beating the egg whites fixes? If so, I’d really like to try this recipe! :)

      These are moist but not like other almond flour muffin recipes that seem kind of wet and eggy. I definitely recommend giving these a try! :)

    I have just started enjoying blueberries – for years, I couldn’t stand the taste but finally, my taste buds have adjusted haha! I know exactly what you mean; there are a ton of paleo baked goods I don’t like because all I ever taste is egg. Can’t wait to try these bad boys!!

    Almond flour and almond extract must give these muffins the most lovely flavor. I’m so into blueberry muffins for breakfast and have to make these tomorrow because I’m craving them so very much!!
