My blueberry plants were loaded with blueberries this year. We have been eating a lot of them and I was able to put quite a few away in the freezer. Now, I just need to find ways to use them all.
I used to make a blueberry muffin that we all loved, however it was full of gluten. I recently adapted the recipe to be gluten free and it worked perfectly. We loved these.
I have made two versions/sizes of these muffins. The regular sized ones were really good, however I think I liked them a little better in the mini muffin size. I am not sure why, but the texture seemed to be a little better in the mini ones, or maybe it was just the fact that mini ones make me feel like I am eating a lot less.
What is your favorite way to use blueberries?

- 3/4 cup rice flour

They look great. We like blueberry buckle and blueberry pancakes at our house or just handfuls of blueberries 🙂
I love anything with blueberries in it! What is corn flour? is it corn meal ground again to make it flour? ina food processor or a grain mill? I grind my brown rice to make flour.
Yes it is basically corn that has been ground into flour and you can make your own, but I have never tried it.
Hi Lynn, I’m attempting to do some trial and error to created the best gluten-free cinnamon rolls (by blending together 4 recipes…two gluten free recipes and 2 regular recipes…one from The New Best Recipes cookbook). Would you recommend adding baking soda to cinnamon rolls too?
Can I use sorghum flour in place of corn flour? Can I use arrowroot in place of cornstarch?
I am corn intolerant. I use Guar Gum in place of Xanthan gum.
I am enjoying your recipes
I am open to your suggestions.
I think sorghum would work in place of corn flour but I haven’t tried it so I can’t say for sure. I also have not done a lot of baking with arrowroot so I am not sure about that either. I would say if you have tried it in other recipes and it works it is worth trying here. Maybe make a smaller batch the first time to see how it works.
