Been craving strawberries and chocolate lately, so here we go!
Home-Style Blender Strawberry & Chocolate Breakfast Muffins!
The ingredients in these muffins are pretty healthy overall and you can’t beat home-style muffins, now can ya?These are best warm right out of the oven or microwaved. The chocolate gets all melty and I like slathering them with just a little butter.
Aren’t they so pretty? 🙂
If you want to lighten them up even more, of course you can leave the chocolate chips out completely or sprinkle the tops of the muffins with some random mini chocolate chips for a little chocolate flava!
So what is your favorite fruit in a muffin? I love apples! You should make these Country Apple Fritter Muffins! They are the bomb! And so are these Best Blueberry Crumble Muffins!
But these Blender Strawberry & Chocolate Breakfast Muffins will steal your heart. (and stomach!)

Love that this recipe uses healthy ingredients.
Thanks Teresa! 🙂 I hear ya–I like healthy for sure!
Thanks for stopping by my website. These look great! Love the blender part…not sure why, just seems different from the same old blender. Going to go pin these (and check out your Pinterest page) so I don’t forget about them. I’m always looking for new breakfast ideas.
Thanks Jennifer! I am so glad you stopped by! Pin away 🙂 Hope you enjoy them!
These look AMAZING!!! Considering I have an entire flat of strawberries sitting in my kitchen right now, this is also quite timely! Thanks so much for taking the time to join us over at the #HomeMattersParty – we hope to see you again next week! Feel free to bring a friend 🙂
Sweet Kristin! Very good warm! Enjoyed the party! 🙂
These sound delicious! I love the strawberry and chocolate combination. Thanks for sharing at What’d You Do This Weekend? I hope you will join us again tomorrow morning 🙂
Thanks so much Joy! I love sharing and seeing what others are sharing and I’ll be there! 🙂
Amazing blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?
I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you advise starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option?
There are so many options out there that I’m totally confused ..
Any ideas? Bless you!
Hi. Thanks for the healthy recipes. Can you please let me know what I can substitute Greek yogurt with and maple syrup. Thanks.
Hey Jordan! Well, typically for Greek Yogurt, you can substitute 3/4 cup of sour cream, butter, cream cheese, buttermilk, mayo or oil and for the maple syrup you can substitute aguave syrup, honey or 1 cup of your granulated, organic, coconut or Stevia. I hope you find something that works. I don’t know what the outcome will be when changing up the ingredients, because using different ingredients can cause the texture to change somewhat sometimes. I would love to know what you come up with! 🙂
Can you substitute almond milk for the cashew?
Sure, you can substitute any milk actually. Hope you enjoy!
