Gluten Free Blueberry Muffin, dense, full of flavor, and easy to make. It's mostly a dump, stir, bake recipe for a "bran" muffin made of oats. Yum!
Gluten Free Blueberry Muffins with Oats. These are SO good.
Here's a Blueberry Muffin that's packed with flavor.
Saturday's breakfast was a success! Real comfort food. This Gluten Free Blueberry Muffin recipe is like a blueberry bran muffin (except you use oats). I like to have them on hand for a grab and go breakfast.
I think this the best Gluten Free Blueberry Muffin recipe made with oatmeal. And why wouldn't it be? It's from Bob's Red Mill Everyday Gluten-Free Cookbookk (affiliate link) by Camilla V. Salisbury. Bob's Red Mill makes terrific gluten-free flour blends. This muffin has the texture of a good bran muffin.
What If You Need Dairy Free Recipes?
If you have been following my blog awhile, you know I am sensitive to gluten and dairy. (You can read more about my health challenge here.) I'm lucky because I can tolerate milk and butter when it's cooked in something, so I usually use the real thing. If you need to be dairy free, substitute olive or canola oil for the butter (or even coconut oil) and swap out the milk with your favorite milk alternative.
Sweetness
Honey and blueberries make this muffin just a tad sweet. It's moist, has a wonderfully dense texture, and is tasty. Because it's like a bran muffin, don't expect light and airy.
No Need to Add Jam
I eat these muffins without adding any butter or jam to them, but Don spreads them with butter, just for the added flavor. Be sure to spray your cupcake liners with a little oil (such as Pam) and they will slip right out of the liners.
This Gluten Free Blueberry Muffin recipe places in my Top Recipes category, hands down!
What You Really Need
You will, obviously, need a muffin pan (affiliate link). A good food processor is essential too, along with measuring cups and spoons. When you are equipping your kitchen, buy the good stuff. It will last your lifetime. There's no point buying something that is going to rust or deteriorate quickly. If you need your recipe to be gluten free, like I do, be sure to buy Gluten Free Oats.
