Blueberries Know No Season!
Or maybe I know no season? Probably more accurate. Why be shackled to the apples and gourds of fall when the produce department at Harris Teeter offers up the fruits of summer all year long?
Especially if the berries are on sale and you really need a break from pumpkin, before your skin turns an unflattering hue of orange to rival a discount spray tan. It’s for the best.
Off-Season, On Point
You may be wondering what the big deal is and why I took the time to make this very regular, run of the mill keto muffin recipe—and you’d be right to wonder.
What makes these cute little b-berry muffins worth 500 words and two-too many photos is the way they taste. Basically, really really good! I’d wager a full 3x better than the Little Debbie Mini Blueberry Muffins in the white plastic packages. That’s saying something.
If that doesn’t sway you, how about the fact that they are bursting at their blueberry seams with health? That they have a subtle sweetness and truly tender crumb that screams gluten without actually having gluten? Or maybe because when eaten warm from the mini muffin tin, they will make you believe in magic again.
And to love a heavy-handed pour of vanilla.
The End. 🥧
Soft & Fluffy 🥛🥧 Mini Blueberry Muffins!
Suitable for all seasons, breakfast, lunch, dinner, or in place of cake at your freaking wedding.
Remember, these muffins are mini.
I would love to tell you how they work in a full-size muffin pan,
but I haven’t tested that and I don’t want to mislead you.
If you try it, let me know!
You may also notice the sparkling sprinkles of sugar.
Not only is it beautiful and fancy as heck, but it’s also sweet and adds a fun texture.
Just dust them with Granulated Swerve mid-baking for an
an extra special touch.

I need to make two adjustments – I need to use olive oil instead of butter (as per dr) and I need to use frozen blueberries instead of fresh. Any hints?
I’m sorry for the late response!! I have never tested this with oil but I do know that swapping in oil will make them a little more dense. The frozen blueberries should work just fine!!
Hubby says they are *delicious”!! Only problem was that they kind of fell apart. I used 1/4 cup of the eggs that come in a carton (egg whites, I’m sure) and will up this to 1/2 cup next time. This recipe is a keeper!!
These look amazing… Gorgeous even 😜
Well thanks Simon! Better Gorgeous than GOURDgeous, right? 😂
Oh I would say so for sure 😂
What gave you the idea for the inspector gorgeous? It was it just you looking in the mirror every day?
It was actually due to the fact that this also used to be a beauty/makeup blog. Even though I’m only a foodie now, the name has grown on me too much to get rid of!
I would say so it’s a great name 😀
I’m liking the ooziness of these mini blueberry muffins!
They were mini and bursting with berry juice. Thanks for the baking tin!!!
I like the looks of these. Maxi flavor 🙂
Haha! Yes! Maxi in the mini 😅
