My favorite muffins are my blueberry muffins recipe. I make them at least once a month. But, due to spring recipes, I thought why not add a hint of lemon flavor to them. Whoa! Keto friendly lemon blueberry muffins are amazing and moist. The sweetness of the blueberries along with the tangy flavor of lemon pair together perfectly.

How To Make Keto Lemon Blueberry Muffins

First, you need to cook your blueberries. Some people just add blueberries into their desserts but that doesn’t serve the blueberries justice to me.

In a small pot add blueberries on a medium heat. Continue stirring because as they darken and burst they can start to stick. Once water starts to release continue stirring for 3 minutes. Next, add in sweetener and xanthan gum mix. Now watch, the blueberries will thicken and start to coat your spoon. Remove from heat and add a little extract.

Place that to the side then add all your ingredients of your dry mix together. Melt your butter, not too hot then mix in eggs, lemon extract and liquid monk fruit.

Combine dry and wet ingredients. Carefully, add blueberries and fold in very easily. Swirl them to avoid turning the batter blue/purple.

Bake for 25 minutes and allow to cool completely.

Helpful Recipe Tips

  • Do I need to cook the blueberries? No, you don’t have to but I highly recommend it if you want that classic blueberry flavor in desserts that you’re use to.
  • What extract to use? I suggest blueberry extract but if you’re cooking the blueberries you will get a good blueberry flavor already. In that case, vanilla extract can be used in place because the blueberry extract I always order. And I make blueberry desserts often!
  • Add lemon juice? I don’t add actual lemon juice due to the nature of almond flour and coconut flour. There’s no gluten so with the blueberries already being water based adding more water wouldn’t be the best option. But, you can test it and see what I mean! Check recipe below and I will give an icing using lemon juice.

How Many Carbs In Blueberries

Yes, blueberries are keto friendly. Berries are one of the few fruits we can continue to have. An entire cup is only 17g net carbs and that’s a lot of blueberries! There isn’t even half of that in this recipe.

Hi, I'm Darius. I am aware that I'm rather young but I started caring about my health years ago. I think it's truly important because at a young age I knew the food they were feeding us was complete b.s, can I curse up here?
