Hi All, I have been searching for a good blueberry muffin recipe. I can't believe I didn't think to post here and ask all you fabulous bakers.

I want to be able to freeze them after they are cooked for quick breakfast in the morning.

Thank you in advance!

Kristi

I use The Gluten Free Pantry Scone Mix. I generally add cranberries or dried cherries and chopped pecans. It would work well with blueberries.

I haven't tried many recipes but I tried this today and it was very good.

I made some modifications because of allergies:

rice milk

1 Tb less sugar because I like not overly sweet and the rice milk already has some sugar in it-so 7 Tb. of sugar.

I didn't have a blend on hand so made up just enough for the recipe based on a link the recipe poster provided. I modified the blend because I have both tapioca and potato allergies.

Blend:

2/3 c. white rice flour

1/4 c. plus 2 Tb. cornstarch

2 Tb. mochiko-sweet rice flour-glutinous rice flour

And I added blueberries.

Blueberry Muffin Recipe from Gluten Free Baking Classics by Annalise Roberts (hope it is OK to do this)

First you have to mix up her flour blend: 2 cups brown rice flour (very fine...or white rice flour works too), 2/3 cup Potato Starch, and 1/3 cup Tapioca Flour

2 cups of the flour mix

2/3 cups sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

3/4 tsp Xanthan Gum

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1 cup blueberries

1/2 cup milk

1/2 canola oil

2 large eggs

1/2 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 375*. Grease muffin pan with cooking spray.

Mix dry ingredients together in large bowl. Add blueberries, stir to coat evenly.

Combine milk & oil in a small bowl, remove 1 tablespoon of the combined liquid and discard. Beat in eggs & vanilla. Stir until just blended.

Spoon into muffin pans. The recipe says to bake 18-25 minutes, but mine were done at 16. My oven is spot on, too.

I like to experiment and the last time I made them I used 1 1/2 cups of the flour blend and 1/2 of almond flour. Almond flour is expensive, but I think the texture was much better. And a bag of almond flour will last quite a while if you only use 1/2 cup in a recipe. :)

Blueberry Muffins

1 1/2 cups gluten free flour blend (I actually use 1 cup plus 1/2 cup Pamela's baking mix)

3/4 cup white sugar

1/2 teas salt

1 teas baking powder

1 teas baking soda

1/2 teas xanthan gum (If not using Pamela's above then up quantity to 3/4 teas)

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1 egg (lightly beaten)

1/2 cup milk

1 cup blueberries (I use the frozen wild blue berries - their small)

Crumb topping

1/2 cup white sugar

1/3 cup gluten free flour blend

1/4 cup butter (softened but not melted)

Preheat oven to 400 deg F. Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.

Combine all dry ingredients. Mix in all wet ingredients. This was an adaptation of a former gluten recipe. If the batter is too thick, add more milk (It should be batter, not dough - about the consistency of what you would think gluten muffin batter should be). Fold in blueberries. Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full and sprinkle with crumb mixture.

Crumb mixture: Mix together sugar, flour, and butter until crumbly. (You don't need this much topping. I make less but keep about those proportions . . . it's forgiving, no need for exact measurements here)

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in oven or until done. (I use the toothpick method to check.)

Also, this is my baseline muffin recipe. If I make banana, I take out the blueberries and use 1 to 2 mashed ripe bananas (no crumb topping but sometimes some chopped pecans or walnuts mixed in or on top). Will also mix in chocolate chips with these.

I will take some cinnamon and sugar and fold that into the batter so that it's kinda swirly for Cinnamon muffins. I do use the crumb topping for those.

This is adapted from my grandmother's recipe.

Sour Cream Blueberry Cake

Cream together 1/2 c butter and 1 c sugar. Add 3 eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Sift together:

2 c sifted flour (I use Bette Hagman's original blend, but any white rice/tapioca/cornstarch or similar flour should work)

1 t baking powder

1 t baking soda

1/2 t salt

1 t xanthan gum

Add the dry ingredients to the egg-sugar-butter in several batches, alternating with 1 c of sour cream, ending with flour.

Stir in 1 t vanilla extract. Fold in blueberries, about 1-1/2 cups fresh or canned. If fresh, toss them with a little flour first, to prevent them sinking to the bottom.

Spoon into cupcake papers. Bake at 400 for 15 - 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. You could also put this in a 9 x 9 pan and bake for about 55 min. Either way, cool it and freeze cupcakes or pieces of cake.

I also like Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix for muffins. They do contain dairy though so don't know if you can tolerate it or not.

No you are NOT stupid...and age-wise, I have you beat by a long shot!!! laugh.gif

BTW, I've also made her pumpkin bread recipe but skip the crumble-nut topping as it's impossible to cut the bread. But it might be good on muffin-top muffins. smile.gif

I have NEVER had a bad result using and following King Arthurs gluten-free flours and recipes. If it's available to you try it.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I had the same thing happen to me at around your age, and to this day it's the most painful experience I've ever had. For me it was the right side of my head, above my ear, running from my nerves in my neck. For years before my outbreak I felt a tingling sensation shooting along the exact nerves that ended up exactly where the shingles blisters appeared. I highly recommend the two shot shingles vaccine as soon as your turn 50--I did this because I started to get the same tingling sensations in the same area, and after the vaccines I've never felt that again.  As you likely know, shingles is caused by chicken pox, which was once though of as one of those harmless childhood viruses that everyone should catch in the wild--little did they know that it can stay in your nervous system for your entire life, and cause major issues as you age.

      Gluten free nuts

      By Clear2me · Posted

      Thanks for the info. I recently moved to CA from Wyoming and in that western region the Costco and Sam's /Walmart Brands have many nuts and more products that are labeled gluten free. I was told it's because those products are packaged and processed  in different  plants. Some plants can be labeled  gluten free because the plant does not also package gluten products and they know that for example the trucks, containers equipment are not used to handle wheat, barely or Rye. The Walmart butter in the western region says gluten free but not here. Most of The Kirkland and Members Mark brands in CA say they are from Vietnam. That's not the case in Wyoming and Colorado. I've spoken to customer service at the stores here in California. They were not helpful. I check labels every time I go to the store. The stores where I am are a Sh*tshow. The Magalopoly grocery chain Vons/Safeway/Albertsons, etc. are the same. Fishers and Planters brands no longer say gluten free. It could be regional. There are nuts with sugar coatings and fruit and nut mixes at the big chains that are labeled gluten free but I don't want the fruit or sugar.  It's so difficult I am considering moving again. I thought it would be easier to find safe food in a more populated area. It's actually worse.  I was undiagnosed for most of my life but not because I didn't try to figure it out. So I have had all the complications possible. I don't have any spare organs left.  No a little gluten will hurt you. The autoimmune process continues to destroy your organs though you may not feel it. If you are getting a little all the time and as much as we try we probably all are and so the damage is happening. Now the FDA has pretty much abandoned celiacs. There are no requirements for labeling for common allergens on medications. All the generic drugs made outside the US are not regulated for common allergens and the FDA is taking the last gluten free porcine Thyroid med, NP Thyroid, off the market in 2026. I was being glutened by a generic levothyroxin. The insurance wouldn't pay for the gluten free brand any longer because the FDA took them all off their approved formulary. So now I am paying $147 out of pocket for NP Thyroid but shortly I will have no safe choice. Other people with allergies should be aware that these foreign generic pharmaceutical producers are using ground shellfish shell as pill coatings and anti-desicants. The FDA knows this but  now just waits for consumers to complain or die. The take over of Wholefoods by Amazon destroyed a very reliable source of good high quality food for people with allergies and for people who wanted good reliably organic food. Bezos thought  he could make a fortune off people who were paying alot for organic and allergen free food by substituting cheap brands from Thailand. He didn't understand who the customers were who were willing to pay more for that food and why. I went from spending hundreds to nothing because Bezo removed every single trusted brand that I was buying. Now they are closing Whole foods stores across the country. In CA, Mill Valley store (closed July 2025) and the National Blvd. store in West Los Angeles (closed October 2025). The Cupertino store will close.  In recent years I have learned to be careful and trust no one. I have been deleberately glutened in a restaurant that was my favorite (a new employee). The Chef owner was not in the kitchen that night. I've had  a metal scouring pad cut up over my food.The chain offered gluten free dishes but it only takes one crazy who thinks you're a problem as a food fadist. Good thing I always look. Good thing they didn't do that to food going to a child with a busy mom.  I give big tips and apologize for having to ask in restaurants but mental illness seem to be rampant. I've learn the hard way.          I don't buy any processed food that doesn't say gluten free.  I am a life long Catholic. I worked for the Church while at college. I don't go to Church anymore because the men at the top decided Jesus is gluten. The special hosts are gluten less not gluten free. No I can't drink wine after people with gluten in their mouth and a variety of deadly germs. I have been abandoned and excluded by my Church/Family.  Having nearly died several times, safe food is paramount. If your immune system collapses as mine did, you get sepsis. It can kill you very quickly. I spent 5 days unconscious and had to have my appendix and gall bladder removed because they were necrotic. I was 25. They didn't figure out I had celiac till I was 53. No one will take the time to tell you what can happen when your immune system gets overwhelmed from its constant fighting the gluten and just stops. It is miserable that our food is processed so carelessly. Our food in many aspects is not safe. And the merging of all the grocery chains has made it far worse. Its a disaster. Krogers also recently purchased Vitacost where I was getting the products I could no longer get at Whole Foods. Kroger is eliminating those products from Vitacost just a Bezos did from WF. I am looking for reliable and certified sources for nuts. I have lived the worst consequences of the disease and being exposed unknowingly and maliciously. Once I was diagnosed I learned way more than anyone should have to about the food industry.  I don't do gray areas. And now I dont eat out except very rarely.  I have not eaten fast food for 30 years before the celiac diagnosis. Gluten aside..... It's not food and it's not safe.  No one has got our backs. Sharing safe food sources is one thing we can do to try to be safe.

      Thank you kindly for your response. I have since gotten the other type of bloods done and am awaiting results.
