Gluten-Free and Sugar-Free Banana Blueberry Muffins

I just picked picked 5 pounds of blueberries and wanted to make some yummy muffins, gluten-free and sugar-free of course! These resemble traditional muffins more so than my my previously posted Blueberry and Banana Muffins, and I think these came out better!

Ingredients

1 stick of unsalted butter, melted

2 eggs

3 ripe bananas, mashed

1 tablespoon of milk

1/3 cup of applesauce

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon orange extract/oil

2 cups of gluten free all purpose flour (I used Trader Joe’s)

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325˚ and line muffin tins with baking cups.

2. Combine butter and eggs in a bowl. Add the mashed bananas, milk, applesauce, vanilla and orange extract/oil.

3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir in blueberries.

4. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Makes 12 muffins. Enjoy!
