  • ¾ cup (6 ounces, 180 ml) milk
  • 1 Tablespoon (0 ounces, 15 ml) lemon juice 
  • ½ cup + 1 Tablespoon (4 ounces, 130 ml) vegetable or other neutral oil 
  • 1 large egg 
  • Zest of 1 lemon 
  • 1 cup (8 ounces, 200 grams) sugar 
  • 1 teaspoon (0 ounces, 4 grams) baking soda 
  • ½ teaspoon (0 ounces, 2 grams) baking powder
  • 1⅔ cups (11 ounces, 300 grams) of QUeen Milling Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Blend , reserving 1 teaspoon 
  • 1½ cups (8 ounces, 225 grams) fresh blueberries 
  • 5 Tablespoons (2 ounces, 65 grams) brown sugar 

 


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with 12 paper muffin cups.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the milk and lemon juice together. Let the mixture stand for approximately 10 minutes, or until the milk begins to curdle
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil, the milk mixture, the egg, and the lemon zest. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Add the sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and the QUeen Milling Gluten Free All Purpose Flour Blend  to the wet mixture. Whisk until just combined.
  5. Take the reserved 1 teaspoon of flour and sprinkle it over the blueberries. This helps prevent them from sinking. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups and sprinkle the tops with brown sugar.
  7. Bake for approximately 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Cool the muffins in the tin for 10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.
