Moist Vegan Blueberry Muffins (gluten-free, oil-free)

Hello my beautiful healthy friends!

I hope this recipe excites you because it sure does for me! This recipe is inspired by Feasting On Fruit’s blueberry muffins. She has an awesome blog. I can’t wait for you to taste these Moist Vegan Blueberry Muffins as they are both gluten-free and oil-free! So delicious!

I am not much of a baker, I definitely prefer cooking as baking definitely is more of a science. Just so you know, whenever I upload a baking recipe to my blog it’s going to be SUPER simple and doesn’t take up a lot of your time in the kitchen. Healthy, delicious and super simple to make?!

With only a few key whole foods plant-based ingredients, these muffins are literally SO healthy!

The majority of store-bought muffins that you’d find at your local store or bakery are filled with refined flour, sugar, all kinds of toxic oils and chemical additives and artificial sweeteners.

Often times, a muffin may seem like the healthier option but when you’re not making it at home yourself, I’ll bet that muffin has the nutritional profile of a candy bar.

Questions:

Can I use applesauce instead of banana in this recipe? YES! Substitute about 1/2 cup applesauce for the banana. It will provide the moisture you need. You can also use about 1/4 cup coconut oil if you don’t have either of those ingredients.

Is there another kind of flour I can use besides oat flour? I have only tried it with oat flour but if you decide to test the recipe out with other flours, let me know in the comments if you were successful.

Can I make oat flour from my oats? Yes, that is exactly what I did! I add 1.5 cups of oats into my Vitamix and made homemade oat flour – way cheaper than buying pre-made oat flour in the store!

Do the muffins store well as leftovers? 100%. Keep them in a sealed Ziploc or air-tight container to keep them moist. For freshness, you can microwave them for about 10 seconds before eating them.

    Hello! Can you post the nutritional info for one muffin?

    Thanks!5 stars

  10. Angelique Cooper says:

    First- thanks for the time and effort in posting these recipes. SO appreciated! The first batch I made were delicious but a bit on the dense side. So for next batch I added 1 tsp baking soda – along with the baking powder. I also added one banana with 1/3 c applesauce and found the muffins to be a lot fluffier.
    Also- if people are concerned with sugar monk fruit is a great sub.4 stars

  11. Tiffany says:

    Thanks for the recipe! I’ve been following The Starch Solution and eating a whole food plant based oil free diet for about 7 years and always on the lookout for recipes to try. Today is my shopping and batch cooking day for the workweek and this recipe was perfect for the items I had on hand. I added some lemon zest for tang, and some finely chopped spinach alongside the blueberries since I prefer a bit of green in all of my food. Used the banana and the applesauce and would sift the oat flour next time since the rise during the bake was okay, though my flour was a bit ‘cakey’. The muffins will be great for my afternoon tea. 🙂4 stars

  12. Jamie says:

    Thanks! Can’t wait to make them!!
