Homemade blueberry muffins are the quintessential breakfast comfort food.

Soft and lightly sweet with juicy mounds of fresh fruit throughout, blueberry muffins are bits of hand-held summer flavor. These fluffy quick breads provide us with filling nutrition for the body in a quick and portable fashion.

Sadly, once summer has passed, those muffins can be a rare delicacy. Muffins made from frozen berries are never quite the same in texture or flavor as their fresh counterparts.

Freeze-Dried Blueberries = Blueberry Muffins Any Time Of Year!

Now the home baker can skip the less-than-ideal frozen berries and infuse the entire muffin with blueberries.

These gorgeous, vibrant purple muffins are sure to please the eye and delight children and adults alike. More than just their charming color, these are full of intense blueberry flavor without a single whole globe of fruit inside.

These blueberry muffins with freeze-dried blueberries are sure to be the talk of any breakfast or brunch buffet table.

Perfect For Kids To Bake, Too!

As there are no berries to tenderly fold into the batter, there’s no need to worry about crushing the berries. This alone makes these muffins an ideal beginning recipe for a child baker.

Using melted coconut oil and avoiding the creaming step further makes it a wonderful beginning recipe for the new baker.

Like the more familiar blueberry muffin, these are perfect for quick breakfasts either at home or on the go.

In addition to being a delicious fresh meal, these muffins can be frozen for even busier mornings. Simply bake, cool, and freeze in an airtight container. Thaw at room temperature and it will likely be ready by lunch.

Your local fresh blueberry season may have passed but that should not keep anyone from enjoying homemade blueberry muffins.

Whip up a batch of these blueberry muffins with powdered, freeze-dried blueberries any time of year for a feast for the eyes and the stomach.
