Ingredients
  

OR FROM SCRATCH

  • 1/4 cup white OR brown sugar OR coconut palm sugar OR other alternative baking sugar note: for sweeter muffins, add up to 1/4 cup additional sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups 202 grams gfJules® Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon optional

PLUS

  • 6 Tbs. butter or non-dairy substitute e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup OR honey OR agave or coconut nectar OR date syrup
  • 2 eggs OR egg sub like 2 Tbs. flaxseed meal steeped in 6 Tbs. warm water
  • ½ cup milk of choice
  • ½ cup+ blueberries chocolate chips, etc. (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F (static) or 325° F (convection).
  • Cream the butter and sugar (if baking from scratch) OR or around 1/2 of gfJules® Muffin Mix until the mixture is lighter and fluffy.
  • Add syrup ingredient and eggs and beat well. Gradually stir in the remaining dry ingredients listed or the rest of the Muffin Mix, adding the milk while stirring.
  • Lastly, gently fold in blueberries or any other mix-ins.
  • Spoon batter into oiled or lined muffin tins, filling 3/4 full.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Bake time will depend on size of muffins; if using convection setting, start checking for doneness at 20 minutes.
  • Cool on a wire rack and store in zip-top or tupperware-style containers. Do not refrigerate; muffins do freeze well.
  • Makes 8-12 muffins, depending on size.

Notes

Reader Barb A. recommends adding 1/4 cup applesauce if traveling or wanting extra moist muffins! Muffins stay fresh for several days if stored properly at room temperature.
