Enjoy them as breakfast, a dinner side dish, or as a snack.

easy blueberry muffin no egg no dairy

My family adores a simple muffin for breakfast, at dinner, for a snack…

and even on the road.

For any reason, really.

And to me, the best recipes use basic ingredients from your pantry.

This blueberry muffin does just that.

Long ago, we figured out how to make basic blueberry muffins…

milk-free and egg-free for our food allergy family. 

There are three options for egg in this recipe. 

Use egg if you can. 

But since there’s only one egg in the recipe, 

it can easily be replaced with flax egg.

Or simply replace the one egg with applesauce!

Easy peasy.

This recipe also does call for milk, 

so just replace that with your favorite dairy-free milk. 

We use almond or coconut. 

But flax, hemp, oat, soy would work, too.

And don’t forget the crunchy sugar on top!

That’s the secret to making muffins that taste like they came from a bakery. 

Something many of our food allergy kiddos haven’t experienced. 

So mama, don’t forget the crunchy sugar on top! (affiliate)

I keep it stocked for muffins.

BEST MUFFIN PAN

If you are a family with food allergies, 

you may find yourself baking safe goodies on the regular, like me. 

That’s why I’ve invested in the very best baking pans at our house. 

And I’m still happily adding to my collection!

USA pans on Amazon are my absolute favorite. 

I even buy them at Christmas for friends and family. 

What makes USA pans so awesome?

They made with durable aluminum.

They are not made with teflon. 

They are coated in food-grade, non-stick silicone. 

Everything I make in these pans pops right out!

With all the baking I do, these pans eliminate the need for disposable muffin liners. 

They wash up like a dream, with no effort at all. 

They are made in the USA! 

I especially love the muffin, mini muffin, and donut pans. 

Here’s the Amazon link to USA Pans we love (affiliate).

FRESH OR FROZEN BLUEBERRIES IN MUFFINS

Honestly, I use either one. 

Both fresh and frozen blueberries work great in this recipe!

I mostly use frozen because they are more affordable that way, 

and we always have frozen blueberries on hand. 

Walmart has bulk, organic frozen blueberries on Walmart grocery pick-up

Holla!

DO I SMOOTH THE MUFFIN BATTER

No, muffin batter does not have to be smoothed flat before baking. 

Just spoon the batter into the muffin wells. 

And bake them as is. 

Muffins actually come out better when left with their rugged shape. 

It’s what we see at coffee shops, right? 🙂

@Jamie Kaufmann, the thing is I usually have to mix 2 or 3 flours together in my recipes I have coconut, cassava and tigernut flour

Hi Jennifer. Oftentimes readers sub 1:1 flour in our dairy and egg free recipes but we haven't heard of it being done with our blueberry muffins yet. If you try, we'd love to hear. :) Thanks for the question.

Sorry anonymous, I added those missing points! I think it was about 1 cup of diced berries and they get folded into the batter last, before baking.
