Healthy Lemon Blueberry Muffins are refined sugar-free, gluten-free, and a super yummy breakfast, snack or dessert recipe for Spring!
This past weekend I got to celebrate my baby sister’s upcoming wedding by attending/hosting her bachelorette party. We had a blast!!
A crew of six girls went out to Fredericksburg, Texas where we sipped on vino all day and were escorted around by a very nice driver. He definitely had some patience with all of the T-Swift music going on.
The following night we came back to Austin and crashed at our place. The hubby was out of town so I had the chance to go all out and decorate with a Kate Spade theme… Pink, black, white and gold… polka dots, stripes and tons of balloons. And oh ya… did I forget the bubbly?
Knowing there would already be a few sweet items being brought by the other girls, I decided to make a batch of these healthy lemon blueberry muffins.
Let me tell you a few things about how awesome these healthy lemon blueberry muffins are…
- They are refined sugar-free!! Yup, no processed, refined sugar needed. Only pure, wildflower, super tasty honey is used to sweeten these healthy lemon blueberry muffins.
- Coconut oil!! And of course, a bit of butter. The combo of equal coconut oil and butter gives these muffins their fluffy texture, amazing rise and rich flavor.
- Lemon + Blueberries?! All things Spring can be found in these healthy lemon blueberry muffins. No need to choose between your two favorites anymore!
