I love bread – any kind of bread. I cannot imagine life without bread. It would be sad. Muffins are one of my favorite forms of bread because they don’t take as long to bake and they are already in individualized servings. My go-to muffins are blueberry and cornbread. LOVE them both so much, I could eat them all day. BAD! BAD! BAD! My hips would not appreciate that. With winter over and spring bouncing from hot to cold I decided to combine the best of both worlds – wintry cornbread and summery blueberry – for these gluten – free blueberry cornbread muffins.

These gluten-free Blueberry Cornbread Muffins have the perfect blend of coarse rich cornmeal and burst of sweet berry that I was craving. Easy to mix together, make them for dinner or wrap them up well and freeze for another day. I definitely need to double my batch. I paired them with a hearty ham and lentil soup. Since I have so many friends who cannot have gluten, I am always happy to have a new recipe to add a taste of yummy-ness to their day.

These Gluten Free Blueberry COrnbread Muffins are perfect for breakfast or two pair with soup. Eat immediately or bake and freeze for easy meals

  1. This was yummy! I’m day 2 of gluten-free and I was NEEDING something bread-y and sweet. This did the trick! I went the 100% cornmeal route (as I’m new to GF and that’s what I had on hand). I subbed almond milk, since I”m dairy-free too. Used stevia instead of sugar and it wasn’t sweet at all…SO I sloshed some maple syrup on top and the result was very good. I’ll be adding pecans and shredded coconut next time. I really liked that my muffins were puffy like a muffin should be a not packy like a hockey puck. Thank you! 🙂

    1. I am so glad they did the trick. You are right. They are not very sweet. Maple syrup would be fantastic on them and pecans and coconut sound amazing.
