Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups certified gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder (gluten-free)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk or dairy-free milk
  • 1/3 cup neutral oil or melted butter

  • 1 teaspoon gluten-free flour (for tossing blueberries)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, oil (or butter), and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Toss the blueberries with 1 teaspoon of gluten-free flour, then gently fold them into the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly, filling each muffin cup about 3/4 full.
Baking
  1. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  2. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Enjoy these muffins warm or at room temperature. You can serve them for breakfast with a cup of coffee or tea, and add a pat of butter or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor.
