No Sugar Added Orange Blueberry Muffins Perfect for Breakfast

These Orange Blueberry Muffins are moist and delicious with plenty of fresh blueberries but no sugar added, making them a great choice for breakfast or dessert.

Many people pair lemon with blueberries in muffins; like these Mutagen Lemon Blueberry Muffins. (No, you don't taste the spinach)

However, I did not have any lemons, only an orange. So, I mixed and matched a few recipes and came up with these scrumptious blueberry swirled beauties. And to make them a bit healthier I swapped stevia for the sugar to reduce the calorie load.
