Healthy Single-Serving Blueberry Microwave Muffin

I think this is going to be my breakfast all week long. I’ve made it 3 mornings in a row, and I can sense that I’ll never get tired of it. It’s delicious, filling, satisfying and secretly good for you… what more could you ask for in a simple 4-minute recipe?!

Hi Jessica,
This recipes looks awesome! What would the sugar/sweetener equivalent be if I don’t have packets on hand? Would it be about a tablespoon of sugar?
I believe each packet is the equivalent to 2 tsp of sugar, but I find that it really depends on what it’s used in and who is eating it. I’d suggest using 1 tbs of sugar, and if it’s not sweet enough for you, just top the muffin with banana slices or a drizzle of pure maple syrup 🙂
I tried this and subbed banana for the applesauce and carrot juice for the nondairy milk and also added chia seeds. I used 4 scoops of Trader Joe’s pure stevia extract. It turned out so great! Sorghum really is perfect for achieving a soft texture for gluten free quick breads. Thanks so much for sharing, Jessica. I look forward to seeing more of your recipes!
Wow, great subs for the applesauce and milk! I never would’ve thought to add chia seeds in here either, but that’s genius. I agree, I’m starting to really appreciate how awesome sorghum is! 🙂

I made this recipe, but instead I subbed the sorghum flour with oat flour, and used yogurt instead of apple sauce. I microwaved it and… IT EXPLODED IN MY MICROWAVE. Now my microwave is fine, I tried the muffins and, not half bad. But I’m not sure what went wrong. I still have a cup left of batter
I have no idea what could’ve happened there because that’s NEVER happened to me! Maybe it was your subs, or maybe the power of your microwave, I’m not sure.
I’m so excited to try this! Would almond, brown rice, or coconut flour be okay subs for the sorghum flour?
Brown rice flour can substitute the sorghum, but definitely not coconut flour. I haven’t tried almond flour but that MIGHT work too. Hope you like the recipe! 🙂
Hi Jessica!
I am really looking forward to making this! I am currently in Ireland and Sorghum flour apparently seems to be out of stock etc. so as you said in another comment; i’ll be using Brown rice flour instead.
Although I do have a question: can I use Coconut milk as an alternative to almond milk?
Many thanks!
Definitely! Any other milk can replace the almond milk 🙂
