Happy Friday, friends! It’s time for another breakfast recipe! 🙂 While these Paleo lemon blueberry muffins are great for breakfast, they are also perfect for an afternoon snack or a treat with your afternoon coffee/tea.
These muffins are made with almond meal and coconut flour, sweetened with a touch of maple syrup, and bursting with fresh lemon zest and juicy blueberries. They are also gluten free and grain free. I used almond meal (which is ground almonds) and coconut flour, and a little bit of maple syrup to sweeten them. I also added some lemon juice and lemon zest. They provide a great burst of tart flavor which is perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the maple syrup and the juicy blueberries. And when I took them out of the oven, they smelled like cake. So good!
A delightful morning treat? Absolutely! You can make a whole batch of these and grab one (or two and three.. :)) in the mornings when you are in a hurry. These paleo lemon blueberry muffins are not overly sweet which is great because I usually crave more savory foods than sweets in the mornings.
I loved how easy it was to make them. I made these last night, it literally took me 5 minutes to combine all ingredients and then in 25 minutes breakfast was ready.
