How to Make Better Than Starbucks Blueberry Muffins

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-cup muffin tin with paper liners and lightly grease with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup almond flour, ½ cup walnut flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs until light and frothy. Add ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ cup xylitol (or your preferred low-carb sweetener). Whisk until fully combined.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup frozen blueberries.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
