I was looking for a healthy alternative to make this recipe and couldn’t find any. I was never a fan of fresh blueberries in muffins, I preferred muffins with imitation blueberries, but those are filled with sugar and chemicals.
One day I was shopping in Trader Joe’s and I came across their selection of freeze-dried fruits and wondered if they would work?
I first tried using the dried blueberries whole but felt they were too hard and didn’t have much flavor. On my second attempt I ground them in my mini food processor, viola! They came out delicious!!
I have since made other variations using Trader Joe’s freeze-dried strawberries and freeze-dried bananas which are equally as good!
