Why You Need for Blueberry Muffins
The ingredient lineup for these healthy blueberry muffins is simple, nutritious, and uses items you probably already have in your kitchen.
- White whole wheat flour: make sure to use white whole wheat flour instead of regular whole wheat as it’s lighter and better for baking.
- Blueberries (fresh or frozen): fresh or frozen blueberries will work for this recipe.
- Eggs: eggs are used as a bind and also to make this blueberry muffins recipe nice and fluffy.
- Honey: honey is an all-natural sweetener that pairs really well with blueberries.

- Banana: banana is another all-natural sweetener that we used in this recipe.

When it comes to nutritious swaps and baking, there are 3 things to keep in mind –> Flour + Sugar + Fat. Check out the swaps we make below.
Unfortunately, we do not recommend using a nut-free flour such as almond or coconut. You’ll need to find a different recipe if this is what you’re hoping for!
Don’t love bananas? We know that there is a big debate when it comes to the flavor of bananas. If you’re one of those people that can’t do it, feel free to sub about 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce. Your muffins won’t be as sweet, but you won’t taste any banana. Check out our homemade applesauce recipes:
- Instant Pot Applesauce
- Slow Cooker Applesauce
I’m sure you’re wondering how we got these healthy blueberry muffins to be so dang fluffy. The answer? GREEK YOGURT.
Greek yogurt not only helps moisten your muffins, but the acidity actually helps activate the baking soda, making these super fluffy. We’re not mad about this at all and pretty much use this method in all of our muffin recipes.
We prefer to use plain Greek yogurt and you can use any % fat that you want.
