1/3 cup Gluten Free 1-to-1 Flour Blend
2 tablespoons Sugar
2 tablespoons Vegan Butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon Lemon Zest
1 cup + 2 tablespoons Gluten Free 1-to-1 Flour Blend
1 1/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Sugar
2 teaspoons Lemon Zest
1 Egg
3 tablespoons Olive Oil (or other light flavored oil)
6 tablespoons Non Dairy Milk (sub regular milk if not dairy free)
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
3/4 cup Fresh Blueberries
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 6-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest. Rub the zest into the sugar with your fingers to release the oils.
Add 1/3 cup gluten-free flour and 2 tablespoons melted vegan butter. Mix until combined. Set streusel aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup + 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour, 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg until frothy. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil, 6 tablespoons non-dairy milk (or regular milk), and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Stir to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Gently fold about 10 times until just combined.
Gently fold in 3/4 cup fresh blueberries, saving some for topping.
Divide the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each almost to the top.
Sprinkle remaining blueberries and the streusel topping over each muffin.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Use fresh high-quality blueberries for the best flavor.
Substituting regular milk and softened butter (for non-dairy-free versions) is acceptable.
Chill the dough for 30 minutes for a denser texture if preferred.
Oven times may vary depending on your equipment—check halfway through.
