Blueberries and chocolate chips go very well together in these moist muffins. Gluten free Blueberry Chocolate Chip muffins. Vegan Soyfree Recipe. Makes 7 to 8 regular size muffins
Blueberries and chocolate chips actually work very well together! Especially for someone like me who might not be too fond of blueberries 😉
These muffins are filled with both and are soft and moist and gluten-free. Almond flour, coconut flour and oat flour keep these muffins moist without needing any gum. Lightly sweet for breakfast. Coconut flour adds extra softness and non dairy yogurt adds the moisture needed in this gluten-free muffin. To substitute, use more almond flour.
Make these for a quick grab in the morning. To make a regular version of these, make my Spelt Almond Blueberry Muffins and add a load of vegan palm-oil free chocolate chips such as enjoy life or other brands!

Vegan Gluten free Blueberry Chocolate Chip Muffins
Ingredients
Dry
- 1/2 cup oat flour , or use other gf flours or gf blend
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup almond flour, ground raw almonds
- 1/4 cup starch such as corn starch or arrowroot
- 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Wet
- 1/2 cup non dairy milk
- 1 Tbsp flax seed meal
- 1/4 cup non dairy yogurt, I used So delicious cultured coconut milk plain
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp oil , or melted vegan butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar of choice, 2 Tablespoons more for sweeter
- 1/2 loaded cup blueberries, I used frozen
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F / 220ºc. In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients and keep aside. In another bowl, mix the almond milk, flax meal, yogurt and vinegar and let sit for 2 minutes. Add the rest of the wet ingredients and mix well until the sugar is combined.
- Add the wet to the dry and and mix till just about combined. Do not let the mixture sit too long at this point as it keeps thickening. Toss the blueberries in 1 tbsp oat flour to coat and then add to batter. Add the chocolate chips. Fold in to just combine. Spoon the batter into lined or greased muffin pan.
- Bake for 21 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick from the center comes out clean. (frozen berries will need a minute or 2 longer - 22 to 23 minutes). Remove the muffins from the pan, cover with parchment or towel while they cool for 10 minutes. (important to cover the muffins so they dont dry out). Serve.
Notes
Add spices of choice like ginger, cloves, nutmeg, all spice for a spice muffin.
Use blended silken tofu instead of yogurt. To make these regular, use spelt/whole wheat pastry flour/unbleached white flour instead of oat flour and coconut flour. You might have to add a bit more or less non dairy milk. Nutritional values based on one serving

Looks great…what can I sub for almond flour as we have nut allergies herw
maybe pumpkin seed flour. I havent tried these with anything other than some kind of nut flour.
Hi Richa,
Thanks for this lovely recipe. I would definitely like to make this! I just have one question, if you don’t mind. I don’t want to ruin your recipe or anything but I’m trying to use natural things as much as I can. I have a whole batch of date syrup that I’ve just made from medjools, so I’m wondering if you have any tips of how to substitute the dry sugar in your recipe at all? I’d really appreciate your advice as I am not that good at baking, let alone vegan baking.
Thanks!
Polly
P.S. I bought your book a couple of years ago and I love if when my boyfriend used it to make your daal 🙂
I wouldnt substitute all of the dry sugar with date syrup since the consistency would be very different. Try a 1/4 cup date syrup + 1/4 cup milk instead of 1/2 cup non dairy milk and use 2 to 3 tbsp sugar or coconut sugar or other dry sugar.
Yay! thanks for getting my book!
This is really delicious and would like to share it with my family and friends.
These look perfect and i can’t wait to make them! When you say powdered sugar, can you use any type for granulated sugar? Or do you specifically mean icing sugar?
any would work. i usually use granulated sugar that I powder in a blender.
FINALLY a vegan recipe where I can use some of the coconut flour I have….I’m pretty sure I have a 3-lb bag. So hard to find recipes without eggs! Thanks so much, can’t wait to try these!
Awesome! Let me know when you do. I also have coconut flour brownies on the blog. no eggs, all coconut flour 🙂 https://fettabbau-trim.today/2014/10/coconut-flour-brownies-vegan-gluten-free-recipe.html%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E
Any substitutes for almond flour/grinding my own almonds? I ran out and am trying to avoid a trip to the store 🙂
I havent tried anything else. grinding almonds doesnt take much time. Blend then up with a little starch or oat flour so they wont become almond butter.
