Best Ever Blueberry Muffins

Its been a quest to come up with what I would call, Best Ever Blueberry Muffins.  I’ve made many different healthy blueberry muffin versions, but none of them taste like these? Why? Well my friends, because these… almost taste like cupcakes! Not only are they gluten-free, they also have other wholesome ingredients like eggs, greek yogurt, applesauce and blueberries.  I will now be forgetting any other recipe and making these my go-to blueberry muffin recipe. If you try them, you’ll understand why. Hard to believe they’re a healthy muffin.

I’ve even gone back to make these twice since I first made them. I’ve got some in the freezer so they stay fresh when I pull them out. I highly recommend doing a double batch and storing the extras in the freezer, as I can pretty much guarantee, these will go fast….

Some readers have been kind enough to report back to tell me how much they love them.. Some, with husbands proclaiming its the best blueberry muffin they’ve had. So they really do live up to the name. Great for the whole family, I hope you give them a try soon.

NOTE: As healthy muffins have a tendency to stick to paper liners, I recommend not using them. Read my post about How To Get Get Your Healthy Muffins Not Stick.
