These 100-calorie blueberry muffins are a great breakfast or snack option.
Anyone else not a huge fan of raw uncooked blueberries, but love them in baked goods? I think the taste and texture are completely different, and something about them being cooked, especially in baked goods, makes me want to gobble them up.
What are blueberries?
Blueberries are perennial flowering plants with blue to purple colored berries. They are small in diameter and actually start out green, but then change to purple and blue as they ripen.
What are the benefits of eating blueberries?
Blueberries are low in calories but high in fiber, vitamin C and vitamin K. They are also incredibly high in antioxidants.
These are perfect for those busy mornings when there’s not time to make breakfast. Just grab one as you’re headed out the door. They are also a quick and healthy snack option for kids.

Thanks Morgan, I hope you enjoy!
I so agree with you that blueberries are even better in baked goods than raw. These look so light and yet so flavorful. I bet the applesauce gives it a nice touch of tartness as well.
I love blueberries in baked goods. 🙂
The perfect healthy breakfast or snack bite, love the applesauce it makes for super tender muffins!
Thanks, they make a great breakfast or snack. 🙂
Just made them…. there really nice! Instead of normal sugar I used half no calorie sugar and half brown sugar and a added crumbles on top.
That sounds great, Ria. I’m glad you enjoyed with the substitutions! 🙂
