Ingredients

  • For the Muffins:
  • 2 C All-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 C granulated sugar
  • 1 C milk room temperature
  • 2 eggs beaten room temperature
  • 1/4 C canola oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1 C blueberries fresh or frozen
  • Topping:
  • 1/2 C sliced almonds
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Pre-heat Oven to 400 degrees
  • Lightly spray a 12 cup muffin tin or line with paper liners
  • Stir together cinnamon and sugar for the topping and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt and sugar. Whisk to combine.
  • In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, combine milk, eggs, canola oil, vanilla extract and almond extract.
  • Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  • Stir in blueberries.
  • Spoon batter into the prepared muffin tin. Try to distribute the batter between the 12 cups as much as possible. The cups will be almost filled.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar topping onto muffins and top with almonds.
  • Lightly press almonds into batter to help them stick.
  • Back in preheated oven for 15-17 min or until tester comes out clean.
  • Cool in pan 5 min. before removing to cool on a wire cooling rack.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container up to 2-3 days. These muffins freeze really well so I usually just freeze them as soon as they're completely cool. This recipe can be easily doubled.
