Almond flour
The use of almond flour in this recipe is two-fold. It makes for a delicate crumb while also providing a good dose of protein.
Gluten-free oat flour
Adding fiber, antioxidants, and more protein to the mix, oat flour supplies the whole grain goodness.
Maple syrup
No white sugar in these muffins. Maple syrup makes these easy blueberry muffins just the right amount of sweet.
Unsweetened almond milk
With a little lemon juice added to your almond milk, the result is a dairy-free way to get that buttermilk flavor.
