Vegan Healthy Banana Blueberry Muffins Recipe (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Refined Sugar-Free)
Vegan Banana Blueberry Muffins (GF): moist ‘n healthy vegan muffins bursting with bananas & blueberries! The ultimate vegan breakfast muffins—Gluten Free, Refined Sugar Free.
Healthy Banana Blueberry Muffins Recipe. Well, well, well. We meet again. Okay, we’ve never met. But I just wanted that start to be appropriately dramatic. If y’all knew the shenanigans we’ve been through these past few days with blueberries!! Ah, blueberry shenanigans. When shall you stop tormenting us?
While gathering ingredients for these vegan banana blueberry muffins… Erik and I’ve recently had a ridiculous time hunting down fresh, tasty and, well, non-spoiled blueberries. Everywhere we went, the blueberries were past their… edible prime.
We searched high and low. We even searched through my mom’s fridge (Sorry, Mommy!). We even searched through my sister Jenny’s fridge (Sorry, Jammy!). We even made a pit stop and baked these gluten free banana oat muffins, then gluten free dark chocolate muffins, and then this best vegan gluten free moist chocolate muffins recipe.
For energy, a morale booster, and some good muffin mojo, of course.
Guess what? The good muffin mojo worked. Make that good healthy vegan muffins mojo. We actually found all the fresh blueberries we needed. We bought those. Then we bought even more because: caution. Hehe.
Vegan Banana Blueberry Muffins
First, I made these delicious blueberry-upgraded muffins aka my the best vegan banana blueberry muffins. Then I started munching on a few warmed-up and totally deliciously melty vegan chocolate chip cookies (if good muffin mojo worked, why not throw in some good cookie mojo?)
Then then, I started thinking about all the other spring- and summer-ready recipes I could make with my ample blueberry supply. Any guesses as to what I made? I’ll just munch on these amazing blueberry vegan breakfast muffins while I wait for your response…
Any requests? 🙂
Before I began baking, I requested Erik’s fine recall powers (he has the best memory ever… it’s pretty annoying) and suggested we rap about reader favorite recipes–and not just healthy vegan muffins bc that’s all we were thinking about.
Yes, rap.
Why does it give me so much joy to say “rap” instead of talk?

We rapped about the most popular recipes on the site, ranging from our popular refined sugar free muffins: double chocolate banana muffins to banana chocolate chip oatmeal breakfast bars to paleo apple crisp and easy vegan peanut butter banana breakfast cookies.
We went through a ton of feedback and requests from readers and settled on a few upcoming blueberry recipe ideas. We even had some time to test them. 😉 And eat them. Then switch over to healthy vegan muffins for good measure.
Come on, you’re totally intrigued right? Are you on the edge of your seat waiting for a hint? (Yep, I really do need to find some hobbies).

Healthy Banana Blueberry Muffins Recipe (Gluten-Free, Vegan, Dairy-Free, Refined Sugar-Free)
- Total Time: 43 minutes
- Yield: 10-12 muffins 1x
Description
Vegan Banana Blueberry Muffins (GF): moist ‘n healthy vegan muffins bursting with bananas & blueberries! The ultimate vegan breakfast muffins—Gluten Free, Refined Sugar Free.
Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 3 medium, very ripe bananas (1 cup mashed)
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax + 3 tablespoons water, whisk together, set for 15 mins)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten free oat flour – if using homemade oat flour, make sure it’s very finely ground (not coarse)*
- 3/4 cup almond meal**
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Add-ins
- 1 cup fresh blueberries, washed and dried
Optional for topping
- 2–3 tablespoons blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners.
- Add peeled bananas to a large mixing bowl. Using a sturdy whisk or pastry cutter, mash bananas until smooth. Add the oil, sugar, flax egg, and vanilla. Whisk until well incorporated.
- Add oat flour, almond meal**, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk together until just incorporated, making sure no flour patches remain. Fold in blueberries.
- Using a large scoop, scoop and drop batter evenly into muffin cups. I use this ice cream scoop for easy scooping and a beautiful round top***. If not using the scoop, smooth batter into an even layer, with a domed top (rise) in the center. Optional: press blueberries on top of the muffins.
- Bake for 16-22 minutes. Mine took 18 minutes. Allow to cool on a cooling rack for about 1 hour. Lift out and enjoy!

Notes
- Where to Buy Ingredients: Gluten Free Oat Flour (or try Homemade Oat Flour) | Almond Meal 13 oz | Coconut Oil | Coconut Sugar | Bob’s Red Mill Ground Flaxseed | Coconut Sugar 3pk | Pure Vanilla Extract
- *If using homemade oat flour, make sure to sift the flour to remove coarse bits of oats that could create grainy muffins.
- **To substitute almond meal with oat flour: use a TOTAL of 1 ¾ cups + 2 tablespoons gluten free oat flour. Muffins will be just a touch drier and not as fluffy, but still good!
- ***I like to use this ice cream scoop to scoop and drop one scoop into one muffin cup. This scoop helps control the batter, prevent messes and gives you a nice rounded top. Tip: after dropping scoops, lightly tap the pan to even out the batter.
- Storing Notes: Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week in the refrigerator. Best the first few days.
- Recommended Tools: Muffin Pan | Cupcake Muffin Holder | 4 Event Timer | Muffin Batter Scoop | Parchment Cupcake Liners | Pastry Cutter
- Freezing instructions: These muffins freeze well. Store in an airtight, freezer-friendly container for up to 1-2 months. Allow to thaw at room temperature for 15 minutes before enjoying. Or, heat in 20-second increments in the microwave until warm.
- Nutrition Information: is an estimate based on the best-selling, most common brands per ingredient. Also, it’s estimated based on 12 servings per recipe, made without optional topping.
