With blueberries in abundance at the moment (in North America), I couldn't resist overusing them in this simple cornbread muffin recipe, using both almond and coconut flour.
I have a recipe for blueberry corn muffins using corn flour. It's not grain free but readers have asked me to keep, so I've left it so. And you may be familiar with this no-corn cornbread recipe, which I used to guide me a bit with this recipe.
I tried silicone baking cups for the first time, and I'm happy to report that they worked out well. As I thought would happen, the muffins were easy to get out of the liners and looked perfect. The cups are fairly easy to clean, and my last test will be the dishwasher. And how long they last.

Hi Erica! I was thinking of including vanilla extract in the batter. Would you recommend? If so, how much?
Hi Norah, Sure! I'd add about 1 teaspoon.

Hello! I love all of your recipes. I am not a baker at all, but you make baking without wheat flour so easy. One question for this recipe. What is the best way to add lemon to the recipe?
thank you,
Lisa
Erica says
Thank you!! If you want to add lemon juice to this recipe, replace some of the milk with lemon juice. Another option is to add lemon zest to the batter.

These are amazing!! I used frozen blueberries and they were perfect! My husband and 20 month old loved them! Thank you for making my transition to the gluten & grain-free world much easier.
Erica says
So good to hear! thank you 🙂
Haley says
Are these measurements correct? 1/2 cup almond flour and 1/4 cup coconut flour does not seem like very much compared to the amount of liquid in the recipe.
Thanks! I love your recipes
Erica says
thanks. yes, it works!

I don't see corn in the muffins. Why are they called Corn Blueberry Muffins?
Erica says
It's "corn" because this recipe is grain-free. For my recipe using real corn meal/flour, go here: https://comfybelly.wpengine.com/2010/09/blueberry-corn-muffins
Joanne says
Do you use the coconut milk in a carton or can?
Erica says
I use a carton; the Aroy-D brand. Here's more on coconut milk: https://comfybelly.wpengine.com/2010/06/coconut-milk/

Whenever I see "coconut milk" in a recipe, I never know if it's the canned variety or what comes in a carton. They are very, very different. Can you elaborate on which one you used? I want to make these muffins this weekend! Thank you!

Just finished eating the first one of these and I think they're gonna be my favorite blueberry muffin! I used the ghee (such a rich flavor) and a little more honey than called for. Thanks for the great recipe 🙂
Erica says
Good to hear! Yes, I like them a bit sweeter sometimes as well 😉
