Gluten Free Blueberry Banana Muffins (updated)

Blueberry banana muffins

A recipe from my mom.

This is a somewhat old recipe at this point and wasn't documented perfectly, so this is the closest I've got to what it was.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (Amazon)
  • 1 teaspoon potato starch
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 2 bananas
  • 1/2 cup avacado oil (Amazon)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt or Celtic sea salt (Amazon or Amazon)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 cups King Arthur Gluten Free Measure for Measure Flour (Amazon)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar (if you don't have an apple allergy, Costco or Costco, otherwise use regular vinegar)
  • 1/3 cup vanilla coconut milk
  • 1/2 large package of instant vanilla pudding (Amazon)
  • 2 cups frozen blueberries
  • Spray avacado oil
Morton Iodized Sea Salt
Chosen avocado oil

 


Dishes you'll have to wash:

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Bowl for full mix
  • Silicone muffin tin

 


Instructions:

  1. Mix all ingredients together.
  2. Place muffin cups into silicone muffin tray (helps them cook better to not have the batter in contact with the silicone).
  3. Spray avacado oil on the paper muffin cups to keep the batter from sticking.
  4. Spoon a bit of batter into each one.
  5. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
