The Best Keto Blueberry Muffins Recipe
The Humble Muffin
Before we discovered the best keto blueberry muffins recipe, life was hard. Because when you start a keto diet, it feels as though you will miss out on yummy treats. Many people even have some basic savory recipes to get them through the day and everything else is off limits. It’s also common to feel discouraged and abandon your diet, if you find what you think is a good treat recipe, and then after attempting to make it, the result is just an inedible disaster. It truly feels like you can never be healthy and satisfied at the same time.
Well, here at The Keto Cookbook, we don’t end people’s diets. We save them. Because right at your fingertips is a website jam-packed full healthy sweet treats that ANYONE can make. You don’t even need to be a whizz in the kitchen or know how to properly pronounce ingredients like “quinoa”. All you need is a little bit of encouragement and guidance, which is what we do best.
So, you can either click the close tab on your browser or jump over to our point of view. Because look at it this way, there is always going to be loads of junk food in the supermarket. But instead of seeing it as a list of foods you can’t have, check out our recipes to see if we have not only made it healthier, but in many cases even tastier!
Which leads us to the best keto blueberry muffins recipe in the world!
Recipe Information
This recipe contains many of the ingredients you’ll already have on your usual grocery list. E.g. eggs, baking powder, almond flour, sweetener, and mayonnaise. And yes, we did say mayonnaise! Because one of the keto secrets that hasn’t fully been announced in the “normal” baking world, is that mayonnaise is a very special ingredient. When used in a recipe like this, it is pretty much flavorless but adds every single muffin with the all-important moisture that cake lovers crave. Honestly, there is nothing worse than a batch of bone-dry muffins, so do trust us on the mayonnaise.
Nutritional Information
Keto lovers will swoon when they read the nutrition of this recipe. While these are not completely zero carb muffins, each muffin only has 2.7 grams of net carbs, which means it fits in perfectly with any Ketogenic or Atkins style diet. They also contain a whopping 5.5 grams of protein and 19.5 grams of fat, which is great for getting your macros in check. Finally, each muffin only contains 220 calories, which is less than half of the calories that are usually found within the usual sugary blueberry muffins. Perfect for anyone watching their weight!
So, what are you waiting for? Get your baking apron on and bake yourself the ultimate keto treat!

Step 88. Bake at 350°F/175°C for 20-25 mins, until muffin tops have browned. *Note, you do not taste the mayo AT ALL. It provides necessary fat and moisture for the muffins and adds 0 carbs. I have tried substituting with sour cream and Greek yogurt and the muffins come out dry, dense and hard to swallow. Don’t be afraid of the mayo (it’s basically just eggs, vinegar and lemon juice anyway). |

Made these twice with raspberries. Great for Keto!
These would be amazing if they came out of the pan! I would reduce the mayonnaise-as I could discern the flavor, but they are flavorful and moist as described, but they came out in pieces which is not acceptable for serving.
