12 Must-Try Muffin Recipes

As a self-proclaimed muffin fanatic, I’m excited to share twelve of my go-to, easy muffin recipes! I’m obsessed with them, and I think you’re going to love them too.

The Best Muffins!

These aren’t just any muffins. They’re my family’s absolute favorites, the ones we bake again and again. From our top-rated blueberry muffins and healthy banana blueberry muffins to indulgent strawberry chocolate muffins, this list covers all the bases.

Best of all, these are wonderfully simple to make, call for ingredients you probably already have, and leave you with fewer dishes to wash! I hope you find a new favorite here. Happy muffin making!

The Reader Favorite!

If you don’t have time for all of the muffin recipes we’ve shared over the years, these Easy Blueberry Muffins are the most loved by our readers. We love the recipe so much that it’s been used as a base for other muffins on Inspired Taste. You can easily substitute the blueberries for other fruits and berries and it even works well with chocolate chips.

    I have lost count of how many times I’ve made the blueberry muffins and the strawberry muffins! They are to die for! My 5th grade son had to present a favorite recipe for a school project and he decided to bring samples of it to share with his group. Guess which recipe he chose? It was a huge success, everyone asked for seconds. We love love your recipes! Can’t wait to try more!

    Hi inspired taste is a very suitable name for your muffins. Today I tried the simple blueberry muffins made with frozrn blueberries and they are soooo delicious! I will be sharing them with all my friends who love blueberries.The best thing about this recipe is the fact that I could use frozen berries. Here in New Brunswich the winter is long and cold and sometimes it’s hard to find fresh anything. Also the directions were super easy.Thank you for a delicious recipe.
