Need A Healthy & Convenient Breakfast or Snack Idea?
I’ve got you covered! These Blueberry Flax Mini Muffins are absolutely mouth-watering and are a delicious way to stay healthy on-the-go.
Y’all know I’m all about packing in the most nutrients as possible when prepping recipes. And, this one does not disappoint.
The combination of coconut flour and ground flax seeds gives you a power-house of nutrients and (especially) fiber.
One serving (4 mini muffins) contains about 11g of fiber!! That’s 1/3 of your necessary daily intake of fiber.
So, I suggest indulging in these little minis guilt-free. I know I did!!
Links to Ingredients Used in This Recipe Video…
- Organic Coconut Flour
- Organic Ground Flax Seeds (or even better, ground your own seeds in a coffee grinder)
- Aluminum Free Baking Powder
- Organic Vanilla Extract
- Grass-Fed Ghee or Butter (ghee is great for baking because it’s a very stable fat)
- Xylitol (Coconut Palm Sugar or Raw Honey for Paleo…. but use Xylitol to keep in really low carb)
- Fresh Blueberries (local grocery store)
- Lemon Juice (local grocery store)
- Egg (local grocery store)
- Almond Milk (homemade or local grocery store)
Thanks for the recipe! I made them and forgot the sweetener but they still tasted great! I added 3T of hemp seeds and quite a bit of water. I also substituted coconut oil instead of ghee. Thanks for sharing!
Yummm the hemp seeds sound like a great addition 🙂 Glad you enjoyed them!
HI – What is the nutritional info on these? carbs? cal? just the basics! thanks!
1 serving of 4 Mini Muffins (or 2 regular sized muffins) = approximately 335 cals, 8.5g pro, 16g fiber
Hello how many grams of fat, and carbs are these?
Hey Janeth! For 4 mini muffins or 2 reg size muffins… it’s approximately: 335 cals, 8.5g pro, 16g fiber
Can you use frozen blueberries?
Yes, but I would let them thaw out for a few minutes beforehand.
How many crabs, you still haven’t given this info
Hey Janice… sorry you were asking how many carbs (my fault)… Here’s the info.. hope it helps 🙂 Regarding the carb content.. Since xylitol contains 0g net effective carbs per serving, we will not be counting it towards the carbs count, only the calorie count. In a quick (& interesting) comparison, sugar has a GI of 100 while xylitol has a GI of only 7, which is why it’s so good for low carb diets and diabetics.
Having said that, the carb count per serving (4 mini muffins or 2 regular sized) is approximately 16.5g carbs and 6.5g net carbs Hope this helps 🙂
In reading the posts which ask the carb content I still do not see anything that states the carb content of these muffins. You have listed the calories, 335, the protein 8.5g, and 16g of fiber..how do I find the actual carbohydrate content? Thank you! I love your site and recipes!

Looks like a good recipe. I see nutritional info for protein, calories, and fiber…. No carb count?

I made these yesterday and we loved them. My kids gobbled them up so fast! We made a double batch today with peaches (since theyre in season right now) Theyre in the oven now and smell fantastic! We can’t wait for them to finish baking. Probably the best thing I’ve found on Pinterest to date.
Hey Jessica! I’m so glad y’all liked the muffins… the peaches sound super delish!! I’ll have to give the peach version a try 🙂
I just made a batch. The flavor is great but my muffins are very crumbly. What did I do wrong? Should I add an extra egg or more almond milk next time?
Hey Donna! You could add another egg. If the texture is too dry after adding another egg, you could also add a bit more butter/ghee or whatever fat you’re using or more coconut milk.
Could I use almond flour instead of coconut flour?
Yes, it may yield a slightly different texture, but it should still taste delicious.
