If you have read my site for long then you know we love muffins. I usually make them at least once a week and am always looking for new versions, especially gluten free versions.
These muffins are perfect right now because it is blueberry season in many parts of the country. And if you do not have fresh blueberries, frozen ones would work fine here.
I first saw these muffins over at Two Peas and Their Pod and I knew that I had to come up with a gluten free version of them. First of all we love muffins and blueberries, but when I saw that Two Peas and Their Pod adapted this muffin recipe from one of my favorite cookbooks from before I was gluten free, I really knew it was a must try.
Adapting this one to be gluten free really was not hard. I choose to use a few of my favorite gluten free flours and it turned out great the first time I tried it.
My kids loved these and they made a great treat for breakfast.

These look great! I am just starting a gluten-free diet. Will have to try to adapt these to be dairy free for my daughter…
