Gluten-Free Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins
These gluten-free Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins are packed full of fresh berries, are dairy-free and refined sugar free. You can make them with either gluten-free quick oats or old fashioned oats. There’s instructions for both options below!
I used the Greek style plain unsweetened yogurt from Kite Hill in these gluten-free Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins. I highly recommend seeking it out if you can! You can also use frozen blueberries, just make sure to not defrost them.
A couple of things to remember:
- Don’t overmix the muffin batter! If you do, the muffins may come out dense, gummy and uneven.
- You can freeze the muffins. Let them cool completely and place them in a freezer-friendly container for up to 3 months.
Muffins are always great for a breakfast treat or as a snack – maybe with a dollop of almond or peanut butter? Perhaps a drizzle of honey? I’ll let you decide!
