Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 C tapioca starch
  • 1/2 C coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup refined coconut oil, melted
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/3 C raw cane or coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, if using frozen, do not thaw

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin or line with mini muffin liners.

Dry Ingredients:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca starch, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt until well mixed and free of lumps.

Wet Ingredients:

  • In a separate bowl, whisk the melted coconut oil, maple syrup (or honey), almond milk (or coconut milk), eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Combine wet and dry

  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix to ensure a tender texture.

Fold in Blueberries:

  • Gently fold in the blueberries, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter. If using frozen blueberries, fold them in directly from the freezer to prevent the batter from turning blue.

Fill Muffin Tin:

  • Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tins, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Bake:

  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Cool:

  • Allow the little bites to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve and Store:

  • Enjoy these healthy blueberry “Little Bites” as a delightful, guilt-free treat. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for extended freshness.
