Lavender Lemon Blueberry Muffins are perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert! This flavor combo is light, sweet, and just what you need for a sunny warm day. Or maybe for those times you are dreaming for some warm weather! Grain-Free, Paleo, and kid-friendly.
It’s a healthy breakfast treat sharing day! I am absolutely obsessed with this flavor combo. Lavender anything and everything is my current jam.
Ever since I took a trip to Nashville with the girls and took a sip of my first lavender latte, I knew became one of those who can both slather up with lavender lotion or soap, but also eat the flavor for breakfast.
I know some of you lavender loving weirdos feel the same way. So let’s get to it!
In my cookbook (set to release in December 2018), I played around with a lavender lemon shortbread cookie. It has since become my favorite afternoon snack with a cuppa tea!
Playing around with a similar flavor, I developed these blueberry muffins for my kids. The additional lemon and lavender flavor makes the blueberry flavor POP. And if anything says, “Happy Spring” or “Happy Summertime” it’s a blueberry muffin.
These muffins are naturally sweetened with coconut sugar, honey, and blueberries. You’re going to love the buttery texture with the almond flour, lemon juice and zest to balance the blueberry and lavender, and the way these muffins melt in your mouth!
And in case you were wondering, they definitely pair well with a cup of coffee or tea. Freeze for later use throughout the week or month. These muffins make a perfect grab and go option!

These turned out great! You mentioned they could be stored in the freezer but how long are they good before that? Should they be stored in the refrigerator or can they be left out?
You can leave them out at room temperature for 2-3 days. But I prefer to freeze, and defrost so they taste as fresh as possible!
