Vegan Blueberry Zucchini Crumble Muffins

Imagine a delicious zucchini bread and a blueberry muffin had a love child… that’s pretty much exactly what these muffins are like. Truly the best of both worlds!

Being a huge fan of baked goods, i’m currently obsessed with these muffins because not only are they vegan, but they are also gluten free, paleo and refined sugar free too!

These are great for a quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Im already on my second batch this week because my family just gobbles them up. Im totally okay with it though because I love that I can use up the fresh blueberries and zucchini from the summertime.

If you are a sucker for a crumbly top like i am, you will definitely love these muffins. Give them a try and let me know what you think. 🙂

  • Fold in your blueberries gently into the mix, trying not to smash them to much
  • Fill each muffin liner 3/4 of the way full with your mixture
  • In a separate smaller bowl combine all of your cinnamon crumble topping ingredients
  • With your hands just crumble a small handful of the mix over the top of each muffin
  • Bake for about 27 mins
  • Let cool and enjoy! (I like them with a little vegan butter)

Notes

When you are making the muffin batter, you’ll notice that it is a sticky batter due to the nut butter. It might be hard to get the scoops into each muffin tin, but just do your best using a spatula or even a spoon. For best results use a high quality coconut flour that is finely ground. I like this brand and have found it to be lighter than other brands. These muffins will last for about 5 days in the fridge or can be frozen for a couple months.
