Because of all of the requests I have had for more videos as well as for recipes using coconut flour… I have created a short video tutorial using coconut flour.
In this quick and easy tutorial I invite you into my kitchen to be taken step by step through a recipe for mini blueberry muffins. These muffins are mighty tasty.
My children and their friends (who can eat as much gluten as they want) fought over these muffins after I was done baking and shooting them for my video purposes. They ended their little row in a civil fashion, by dividing the muffins evenly amongst themselves.
Mini Blueberry Muffins
Ingredients
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¼ teaspoon celtic sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup grapeseed oil or palm shortening
- ¼ cup agave nectar or honey
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup frozen blueberries
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine coconut flour, salt and baking soda
- In a large bowl, combine grapeseed oil, agave and eggs
- Stir the dry ingredients into the wet, then gently fold in the blueberries
- Grease a mini muffin pan with grapeseed oil
- Spoon the batter 1 tablespoon at a time into the mini muffin pans
- Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, or until firm
- Cool and serve
As you can probably tell, these muffins are a favorite in our house for breakfast (served with scrambled eggs), snack or dessert.
I hope you like them as much as we do and that you find this video tutorial to be of much assistance in your baking endeavors. Enjoy!

How lovely to see you again in the video, you are a natural! As far as ‘food blog soulmates’ doesn’t say it all, you look exactly like my sister…! (No wonder I feel so at home here) This gives the concept ‘family’ a whole new touch to it :-)
Great that your summer has kicked off, I hope you have a lot of fun!

Great tutorial! I do the same thing with putting my oil in first when doing measurements, it helps with heavy things like nut butters too.
I looooove your kitchen– some girls loves shoes, some love clothes, but I love kitchens! Yours looks so spacious and organized.
You look fabulous too :-)

Elana, I just had to write to say thank you for all of your time and care! Your video is great and I appreciate all your efforts. Your recipes are wonderful. I am allergic to wheat and I have found your website a great resource. I am looking forward to purchasing your recipe book in July. Thanks for giving us all hope for tasty, and healthy food.

I have made these and they are wonderful. I make a few without blueberries for one of my sons and they are yummy as well.
Thanks

Yum! These will be perfect for our damp, chilly Colorado morning today. I was already planning on making the fruit salad recipe from last week. We’ll add some scrambled eggs to these muffins and have a feast. Thanks Elana! You are lovely-in all respects.
elana says
Stacie, I know, it’s been so damp and rainy here in Colorado, though I’m not complaining, we need the moisture. Where are you located? We are in Boulder. Your breakfast sounds delicious and delightful! xoxo
Theresa Watson says
You are so adorable!!! The video was great and all of your recipes are wonderful!! I am home recouperating from a partially collapsed lung so this will give me something to do today. I don’t have blueberries so I am going to try it with frozen raspberries. I will let you know how they turn out.
Thanks for all of the wonderful things you do!!

Thanks for the video Elana! I wish I could get coconut flour here in Israel but I have not seen it.Could I substitute it with almond flour , for example?
elana says
Hi yaelian, for the answer to your question about substituting coconut flour with almond flour, please see my FAQ. Thanks and Shalom :-)

You are such a classy lady, Elana! Love the way you do your hair. :) The videos are great! Keep ’em coming. I bet those muffins would be yummy with some strawberries from the Farmer’s market!
