I feel like the blueberry muffin has been a very popular grab and go breakfast option for a lot of people over recent years. It has been paired with a coffee at coffee shops as a quick breakfast option for a while now. Whilst I was probably never a massive blueberry muffin person, I have fallen in love with these keto blueberry muffins. This keto blueberry muffin recipe is so simple to make and they taste just as good as the real thing to me. They are so good even Erika’s Dad approves!

Easy Keto Muffins
Muffins have long been a tricky one for many in the keto community, as many of the recipes out there have a very heavily egg base and many find that they taste too eggy. These keto blueberry muffins are not at all eggy and I feel Erika has nailed the muffin texture here.
They taste much more like a keto cake than an egg loaf type muffin. The key to the delicious flavour for this recipe is the lemon. I absolutely love the lemon flavour in this keto blueberry muffin recipe.
Berries on Keto
Berries are really the only fruit that are low enough in sugar and carbs to be part of a ketogenic lifestyle. When we are looking for a quick and simple sweet treat, we love to grab some strawberries from our local strawberry farm and mix them with some double cream for the perfect keto dessert.
- Strawberries 8g total carbs per 100g
- Raspberries 12g total carbs per 100g
- Blueberries 14g total carbs per 100g
- Cranberries 12g total carbs per 100g

Our favourite Keto muffin recipes
I believe we have 3 of the best keto muffin recipes out there. Our cheesecake muffins, breakfast muffins and these keto blueberry muffins are just so good. We cooked the cheesecake muffins and breakfast muffins at Ketofest 2018 and they were both a massive hit. All of these muffins are great for the kids and have been loved by all our non-keto family and friends.
Here is a list of some of our favourite keto muffin recipes;
Low Carb Baking
Baking your favourite desserts and cakes using low carb replacement ingredients can be tricky. When you start replacing flour with low carb replacements like almond flour and coconut flour, it’s important to know they don’t work the same as normal flour.
When using sweeteners in place of sugar it’s important to check if the sweetener acts as a 1:1 replacement. The Sukrin sweeteners we love are 1:1 and act the most like sugar of all the sweeteners we have tried.
Even though these things make keto baking more difficult, it is really easy to find a keto version of most of your favourite baked goods.
Keto Sweeteners
We love to use Sukrin sweeteners in our keto baking and these keto blueberry muffins. We have tried loads of the sweeteners available on the market and have found this to be the best tasting option with no bitter after taste. Our family and friends, who are not keto, love our keto baking too when it is made with Sukrin. Also, it is made with our preferred sweeteners, a combination of stevia glycosides and erythritol.
Australians! Don’t worry, the Sukrin products are available for us too. If you are interested check out Sukrin Australia.
Our favourites from the Sukrin products are;
- Sukrin 1 – which substitutes one for one for white sugar
- Sukrin Gold – which substitutes one for one for brown sugar
- Sukrin Melis – which substitutes one for one for icing or powdered sugar
- Sukrin Gold Fibre Syrup – this reminds me of golden syrup that we use in baking in Australia. It tastes delicious and is great for making any caramel recipes
Tips
- Make sure the butter and cream cheese have been left out of the fridge to soften slightly so they blend up easily
- I like to put the eggs into the bottom of the blender first, as the liquid helps to ensure it blends easily
- They are best served at room temperature or warm
- With keto baking it is best to use a silicon muffin tray to avoid them sticking to traditional muffin tins or paper cases
Suggestions
- You could try using a different berry if you don’t have blueberries available
- For a choc chip muffin you can use sugar-free choc chips in place of the blueberries and lemon zest in this recipe

Keto Blueberry Muffins
These keto blueberry muffins are the perfect fluffy texture, paired with the freshness of the lemon and the sweetness of the blueberries. You will love the flavour of these keto blueberry muffins so much that you will be making these often. We also love to serve these to our non keto family and friends. Erika’s dad came for a visit one day and we had some we could offer him with his cup of tea. Let’s just say there wasn’t any left for me by the time he left.

- ½ cup sweetener
- ½ cup almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- zest of 1 lemon

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160C/320F. Grease and line your muffin trays. We prefer to use silicon muffin trays to avoid the muffins sticking, which does happen with low carb baked goods
- Place all the ingredients except the blueberries into a blender and blend for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and all the cream cheese and butter is combined
- Remove the mixture from the blender and place in a bowl. Add the blueberries and stir through gently
- Divide the mixture between 6 muffin cup moulds and place in the preheated oven
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the muffins are golden brown on top and cooked through
- Allow to cool in the muffin tray for 5 minutes and then remove and place on a wire rack to continue cooling
I make and freeze for kids lunch boxes.
Great idea to freeze then for lunches.
So delicious.
Just made these, and they were truly delicious. Will have to double the amount next time
So glad you enjoyed them Pauline!
Made these muffins and they are very good. I forgot the lemon zest and wish I hadn’t I did add some blueberry extract though. Taking them on our fishing trip and hope the captain enjoys them.
The lemon definitely adds some flavour.
These are so quick and easy and taste delicious! I made them in the Thermomix and used silicone cupcake cups in my muffin tray and it made 12 mini muffins. The smell of the lemon and blueberry as they came out of the oven was too much to resist and we had some before dinner! LOL
Yay, so glad you enjoyed them Kristen – we love them too!
Are these for 6 jumbo muffins or 6 standard sized?
Just a regular size muffin
Great, easy recipe. They turned out perfectly.
Absolutely love these, so light and fluffy. Thanks for a great recipe ladies.😁
Thanks Colleen! So glad you enjoyed them
Absolutely delicious. You wouldn’t know they were Keto or made with Almond and coconut flours.
Definitely make again. No to try not to eat them all in one day 😊
Awesome! Thanks Lyn
This has been the saviour in our house from having eggs for breakfast everyday! It is AWESOME! I think I’ve made this one no less than 5 times in the past 3 weeks. It’s simple and it’s delicious. Give it a go, you won’t regret it
