Preparation

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, oil (or butter), and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined.
  5. Toss the blueberries with 1 teaspoon of gluten-free flour, then gently fold them into the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly, filling each muffin cup about 3/4 full.
Baking
  1. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  2. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
