Dit Blueberry Almond Muffins are the perfect week-end baking to share with family and friends. You will love the light almond flavor in these fluffy, light, and juicy muffins, naturally sweetened with maple syrup.
I created this recipe to combine two of my favorite ingredients – blueberries and almonds – in a delicious, plant-based treat. As someone passionate about vegan baking, I’m always looking for ways to make classic recipes dairy-free and egg-free without compromising on taste or texture.
These muffins prove accessible, delicious vegan options that everyone can enjoy, a bit like my Oatmeal Vegan Muffins, Veganistiese Framboosmuffins, of 3-bestanddeel piesangmuffins.

Notes
Voeding
Bestanddele en vervangings
- Meeldoelige meel: Choose unbleached flour for best results. For a gluten-free version, use my glutenvrye omskakelingsgids.
- Amandelblom: Use blanched almond flour for a finer texture. While this might work with other nut flours like hazelnut or cashew flour, I haven’t tried them yet.
- Esdoringstroop: Choose pure maple syrup. You can also use agave nectar or coconut nectar.
- Klapperjogurt: Look for unsweetened varieties. You can also use any other plant-based yogurt like almond yogurt. It might also work with applesauce or mashed banana for a different flavor profile.
- Canola olie: Choose a neutral-flavored oil. It would also work with melted coconut oil or vegetable oil.
- Amandelmelk: I use unsweetened almond milk, but any plant-based milk can be substituted.
- Amandel uittreksel: This adds depth to the almond flavor. You can skip it and only use vanilla extract if you need.
- Vanielje-ekstrak: Choose pure vanilla extract for best flavor. Vanilla bean paste is a good alternative.
- Bakpoeier: Make sure it’s fresh for proper leavening.
- Suurlemoensap: Fresh is best, but bottled will work in a pinch.
- Sout: Fine sea salt or kosher salt work well.
- bloubessies: Fresh or frozen can be used. If using frozen, don’t thaw before adding to the batter.
- Gesnyde amandels: For topping. Chopped almonds or other nuts can be used as alternatives.
Carine se Bakwenke
To achieve perfect Blueberry Almond Muffins every time, you need to read these tips:
- Avoid overmixing the batter – a few lumps are okay and will result in tender muffins.
- Bevrore bloubessies – if using frozen blueberries, add them to the batter while still frozen to prevent color bleeding.
- Amandel geur – for a more pronounced almond flavor, toast the almond flour before adding it to the batter.
- Bakery-style domed tops – start baking at a higher temperature (400°F/200°C) for the first 5 minutes, then reduce to the recommended temperature for the remaining time. This initial burst of heat helps create that raised muffin top.
