📝 Ingredients You’ll Need
(Makes 12 muffins)
| Ingredient | Why It Works | Keto Swap Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Almond flour | Gives fluffy texture | Nut-free? Use sunflower seed flour |
| Erythritol | Sweetens without spiking blood sugar | Monk fruit works too! |
| Fresh blueberries | Bursting with antioxidants | Frozen berries are okay (thaw first) |
| Butter or coconut oil | Adds moisture | Use avocado oil for dairy-free |
Full List:

🔥 Step-by-Step Guide
1. Prep Work (5 minutes)

Stir until smooth – no lumps!
4. Fold in Blueberries

(Watch them rise like regular muffins – so satisfying!)

❓ Common Questions
“Will these taste eggy?”
Nope! The vanilla and butter balance the eggs. My taste-testers didn’t notice!
“Can I use xylitol?”
Yes, but keep it away from pets – it’s toxic to dogs!
“Why did my muffins sink?”
Overmixing causes this. Fold ingredients gently – think “soft clouds”! ☁️
