If you are a chocolate lover like Heart is, you will absolutely love this Chocolate Chip Blueberry Muffins Recipe. It’s the perfect amount of chocolate so it’s not too rich but still has the sweet flavor for your sweet tooth. These muffins are also gooey with the melted chocolate chips and blueberries.
Jewels loves making muffins. Muffins make the perfect recipe for kids to start baking with. Not too many ingredients and they usually have all the baking staples you most likely have on hand anyway.
It’s not unusual to see muffins in our kitchen every few weeks. Along with these Chocolate Chip Blueberry Muffins, you can find these Delicious Pumpkin Crumb Muffins and Raspberry Peanut Butter Muffins.
We are always trying to change our current recipe and experiment with different flavor combinations. This Chocolate Chip Blueberry Muffin combination happened because we had a basket full of blueberries that were starting to get too ripe and I thought we better use them before they go bad and moldy.
Baking Supplies You Will Need
Only takes 30ish minutes to bake
If you are like me, you don’t have time to spend hours baking a snack for the kiddos. I always need something quick, easy, and easy clean up. These Chocolate Chip Blueberry Muffins take about 10-15 minutes to get all the ingredients measured out and mixed in the bowl. Take another 10 minutes to bake at 425 degrees and another 5 minutes at 350 degrees and wa la! Muffins are done!
Storage and Freezing
Storing: Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature. They are best if you eat them within a couple of days, but they should be good for up to 5 days possibly even longer if you put them in the refrigerator.
Freezing: If you don’t want to eat all of the muffins now, you can freeze them. I like to wrap the cooled muffins in Handi Wrap then in Aluminum Foil. I then place them in a gallon sized freezer bag and then lay flat in the freezer. You can freeze these muffins for up to 3 months. You can remove them one at a time and let them thaw at room temperature or place them in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds.
Create your own Variation
Not a fan of Blueberries? You can try any cut up, drained, fresh fruit you’d like. Top with some cinnamon sugar before baking, or even try some shredded coconut.
