This past Saturday we lucked out with a snowy, freezing day and two days off in a row for Brian. What better way to celebrate than with some homemade, healthy blueberry muffins? I hadn’t cooked with oat flour or almond meal before and I loved the way the both came together in this recipe. If you don’t have oat flour and want to try making it at home, you can pulse rolled oats in your food processor until it’s a flour like consistency. One cup of rolled oats should yield one cup of oat flour.
These have no added refined sugar, are dairy and gluten free and even sneak some apple cider vinegar in them (I promise you can’t taste it). They’re also some of the best, healthy muffins I’ve ever had. Brian devoured two and even gave them the man seal of approval. Always important for healthy recipes, right? Make these. I can’t even explain how insanely good they are.
