What you need for these Blueberry Muffins with Lemon Coconut Glaze!

  • oat flour
  • almond flour
  • coconut sugar
  • almond milk
  • eggs
  • olive oil
  • maple syrup
  • baking powder
  • vanilla extract
  • blueberries
  • lemon juice
  • coconut butter

First off, these Blueberry Muffins with a Lemon Coconut Glaze are dairy free and refined sugar free. They can also be gluten free depending on how you view oats and oat flour. Also, to ensure these are gluten free you can use certified gluten free oats. Speaking of oat flour, I know sometimes people find it difficult to find. If this is you, it is super easy to make yourself and it what I always do. You simply blend oats in a high speed blender or food processor until a fine flour is formed. That is literally it! In these muffins the oat flour is combined with almond flour which I think creates an absolutely perfect texture. The muffins are sweetened with coconut sugar and a splash of maple syrup, my two absolute favorite sweeteners! They make these muffins refined sugar free. Then lastly the muffins get their flavor from the vanilla extract, lemon juice, and of course blueberries!

Now time for the lemon coconut glaze! The base of this glaze is coconut butter and is so simple. It takes five ingredients and thirty seconds. Those five ingredients are the coconut butter, vanilla extract, maple syrup, lemon juice, and almond milk. You simply mix the specified amounts together and microwave for thirty seconds! I also think this glaze is extremely customizable. I recommend adding more maple syrup if you want it sweeter or more lemon juice if you want more of that lemon flavor. Totally up to you!
