    Homemade bakery-style blueberry muffins are deliciously fluffy with a classic bakery flavour. My version is also vegan-friendly and made with just 7 ingredients!

    Why you'll love this recipe

    I just know you'll love this recipe! It's:

    • Made with seven simple ingredients found in your store cupboard
    • Packed with juicy blueberries and delicious flavour
    • Yields fresh hot muffins in just 35 minutes!

    How to make bakery-style blueberry muffins

    These muffins couldn't be easier to make! Simply mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl, then add in the wet ingredients and a flaxseed egg. The flaxseed egg is key here for acting as a binding agent in our muffins.

    Then we'll stir through some fresh or frozen blueberries to complete the batter. How pretty does it look?

    Finally, decant the mixture into muffin cases and bake for 18-25 minutes or until golden brown and domed on top. Then enjoy with a cup of hot masala chai. YUM.

    Notes on this recipe

    • Don't overmix the batter. It's been said that muffins only need to be stirred 40 times - make sure you don't overmix the batter or you'll overwork the gluten.
    • Don't open the oven during the first 15 minutes of cooking. This can cause your muffins to dip in the middle which is not cool.
    • Make extras! Because if your family is anything like mine, they'll be gone in minutes.

    FAQ

    Can I make these muffins naturally sweetened?

    Yes! Simply swap out the caster sugar for date or coconut sugar.

    Can I make blueberry muffins using fresh blueberries?

    Yes, you can use fresh or frozen blueberries in muffins.

    Can I replace the flax eggs with chicken eggs?

    I have tested this myself however it should work fine.

      2 medium sized egg replacement?
