This week’s Breakfast recipe is Vegan and gluten free Blueberry breakfast Muffins. Blueberry Muffins for Breakfast is a classic, perfect with a filter coffee and a good book, albeit not the healthiest start to a morning, so that is where this recipe steps in. These muffins are filled with healthy ingredients that will keep you feeling satisfied whilst also providing you with that sweet fix. These guys are perfect for making the night before, ready to grab and go the following morning. I like to double up this recipe and make a big batch to last me through the week, the should keep well for 3 days in a air tight container or for a month or so in the freezer. If Blueberries aren’t your thing then swap it up with your favourite Berries or fruits.
