Equipment

  • muffin tins
  • mixing bowl
  • measuring cups
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 cups blanched almond flour we use Bobs' Red Mill Super Fine Almond Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup milk or dairy-free milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 0.25 cup butter or dairy-free butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 0.5 cup sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 cup blueberries divided

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line full size muffin tins with paper liners. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl combine almond flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt with a large whisk, pastry cutter or fork. Set aside.
  • Add apple cider vinegar and milk together to a liquid measuring cup or small bowl. Let sit while you whisk the eggs. The mix will curdle a bit mimicking a buttermilk.
  • In a large mixing bowl, lightly whisk eggs. Then add milk mix, melted butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract and sugar and mix to combine.
  • Add almond flour mix to the wet ingredients, and mix to combine. Batter will be smooth. Do not over mix.
  • Stir in ½ cup blueberries to just combine. NOTE: the reason I divide the blueberries is so that they don't all sink to the bottom of the muffin when they bake.
  • Scoop batter into prepared baking tins. Top with remaining blueberries. Bake for 25 minutes or until top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
  • Let sit in baking tins about 10 minutes, move to baking rack to cool and enjoy!
  • Store in a sealed container at room temperature for 1-2 days, in the refrigerator for up to a week or freezer for several months.
