How To Make Healthy Blueberry Muffins
It all starts with these fresh, healthy ingredients:
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1/2 cup Konsyl Daily Psyllium Fiber
- 1 large, mashed banana
- 3/4 cup milk (any variety to suit dietary needs)
- 1/4 cup natural sweetener (maple syrup or honey)
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 large egg whites
- 1/4 cup tapioca flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Streusel Topping Ingredients
Some would argue that the top is the tastiest part of the muffin. Here’s what you need:
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, solid
1. Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with oil.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together oat flour, Konsyl Daily Psyllium Fiber, tapioca flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, mix mashed banana, milk, sweetener, melted coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and egg whites until well combined.
4. Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries to avoid crushing them.
5. Make Streusel Topping
In a small bowl, mix the oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add solid coconut oil and pinch together with your fingers until the mixture becomes crumbly.
6. Assemble and Bake
Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the streusel topping over each. Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Cool and Serve
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
