These lemon blueberry muffins are soft and moist, loaded with juicy blueberries, and full of bright lemon flavor. Finished off with a a sweet lemon drizzle.

Hello, sweet friends…

I’m not gonna lie, I’m ready for summer. I am NOT a winter girl AT ALL. Today I’m dreaming of warm weather and flip flops. But alas, it’s snowing outside here in the mountains of North Carolina.

These little muffins are my way of calling in what I want more of: summer berries and bright sunny flavors.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350’F. Line muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
Mix together almond flour, arrowroot, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together eggs, fat of choice, maple syrup, lemon juice, and zest. Add wet to dry and mix until well incorporated. Fold in blueberries.
Divide batter evenly into 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle a few blueberries on top of each muffin. Bake for 17-20 minutes, until golden on top and toothpick comes out clean in center. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
When muffins are cool, prepare glaze by melting coconut butter and coconut oil in a small double boiler (I place a small glass bowl over a small pot). Whisk in 1 tablespoon of sweetener and lemon juice. Taste and add more sweetener if necessary. Don’t worry if it gets clumpy. Remove from heat and whisk in hot water 1 teaspoon at a time until glaze is smooth and glossy. Keep whisking. It will get there.
Drizzle glaze over muffins. ENJOY!
