Healthy Gluten Free Morning Banana Blueberry Oat Muffins
With my simple staple muffin recipe – I just had to change it up with some flax, oats, minimal sugar and gluten free flour.
I just love muffins. Cut them in half, grill the sides, slather some butter and sip your coffee. So good.
I over filled my 6 muffin cups; the batter is thick so it won’t run over. They puff up nicely and stay together without many crumbs. Dense from the flax and oats but juicy from the blueberries and brown sugar.
Let's eat more fiber!
Adding Flax meal into these muffins, makes the hearty, gives them texture and dare I say, gives us great fiber and healthy fat.
I love flax meal because it’s gluten free – unlike whole wheat flour – it gives a similar texture and taste but keeps it gluten free.
