These Paleo Breakfast Muffins are the perfect grab-n-go breakfast. Lightly sweetened with a nice burst of fresh fruit and so simple to make. There’s no excuse not to eat breakfast anymore.
I don’t have a lot of paleo baked goods on my site and there’s a reason for that- we don’t eat them that often. Since they’re not allowed on the Whole30 we just got used to not having them around. I do like to make something special for the weekends though and that’s when I got the idea for these muffins. Very lightly sweetened so they’re okay for breakfast. The protein from the almond flour and eggs help keep you full. I used fresh blackberries and raspberries, but use whatever berry or fruit you have. I think cinnamon and raisins would be delicious as well- one of my favorite pairings.
My husband had a hard time not eating all of these on the night I made them. I needed to take pictures the next day- otherwise they would have disappeared. Once pictures were taken he had approximately 634 for a snack. Or something like that.
The inside is so moist, yet fluffy. Not dry at all. These can be stored on the counter for 2 days. After that put them in the fridge (if there are any left) to keep them fresh.
Did I mention this come together in one bowl? How awesome is that!?! I love simple, quick recipes and I always try to use as few dishes as possible.
These are a great make ahead breakfast that you can bake on the weekend and eat all week long. But they’re also easy enough to whip up on a weekday too!
You will love how incredibly delicious these are, how fast and simple they are, and how they’re healthy too! You can feel good about eating these muffins for breakfast or any time of day.

Bon Farmer says
Any adjustments needed if I use frozen berries?
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Bon- I’m not completely sure, but it should be the same. Maybe bake for a couple extra minutes, just keep an eye on them. Hope you enjoy!
Laurine says
Hello!
What’s “½ cup unsweetened apple sauce” in french ? I don’t understand…
Thanks!!!!
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Laurine- apple sauce is apples cooked down until they are liquidy and smooth. Here in the US you can buy it in the store, but a lot of it is sweetened. Unsweetened has 1 ingredient- apples! Or you can make it homemade by cooking peeled, chopped apples on the stovetop until the breakdown. I hope that helps and let me know if you have any other questions.
Madame Laillet says
Applesauce is compote de pomme for the French speakers out there! 🙂
Jessica DeMay says
Thanks for that info!

Hey There! These taste amazing but do you have an idea as to the nutritional facts for these muffins?
Jessica DeMay says
Thanks, Tim! I don’t calculate nutrition facts for my recipes, but you can use a site like My Fitness Pal to calculate it if you want. Thanks for trying my recipe!
Martha says
Have you ever tried to just mix the berries in? I was thinking of mixing blueberries in.
Jessica DeMay says
Hi Martha- I haven’t, but I think that would work great. Enjoy!
