Okay guys. This muffin recipe is going to change.your.life.

FOR REAL though.

These Blueberry Cardamom Blender Muffins are healthy, completely gluten-free, AND dairy-free. There’s also no added oil or refined sugars.

“But how is that possible?!” you might ask.

I know, it seems hard to believe. 😉

The base of the muffins is oats and cashews. The oats are blended down into oat flour and the oils from the cashews work as a binding agent. Then there’s a little bit of plant-based milk, maple syrup for sweetness, and a generous shake of cardamom and cinnamon. And of course a heaping 1 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries.

The best part about Blueberry Cardamom Muffins is that they are made 100% in the BLENDER. Which means less mess and only one dish for you to wash! (Okay, okay, you might have to wash a measuring scoop or two.)

I bet you could go from clean kitchen to muffins into your oven in 5-10 minutes. Seriously. If a muffin snack attack strikes, you know which recipe has your back 😉

I guarantee your kids (or even your husband) will have no idea that there’s no flour in these muffins, or that they’re vegan! Because even though they are gluten-free and dairy-free, they are also still moist like a regular muffin.

I told you these Blueberry Cardamom Bender Muffins were the magical unicorn of muffins!

Recipe Notes

I make these muffins in my Vitamix, but you do not need a high-powered blender to make them.

If you don't have cardamom in your spice cabinet, increase the cinnamon to 1 tsp.

    These muffins were delicious! I could not believe it. Living in Italy, I used a spice grinder for the cashews, and an immersion blender for the rest. They were moist and delicious. I increased the cardamom, as the flavor is prominent in baked goods in Sweden. So glad I found the recipe!
