Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 ºF and position the rack in the middle of the oven.
- Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, combine gluten-free flour, almond flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, and salt.
- Add butter to the dry ingredients and mix with a hand or standing mixer until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Gradually add the milk, yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, lemon zest and lemon juice to the butter-flour mixture and whisk until a thick, smooth batter forms without flour clumping.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the gluten-free muffin batter to the bottom of each muffin liner. This will help prevent the berries from sinking all the way to the bottom.
- Stir in the rest of the blueberries into the batter, reserving some for sprinkling on top, until evenly distributed.
- Divide the rest of the batter equally into the muffin cases, filling them to the brim for standard muffins or creating a small mound above the edge for jumbo muffins. Sprinkle with reserved blueberries and sugar - this will create a beautiful shiny topping.
- Bake at 375 ºF for 20-25 minutes until the muffins rise, turn golden brown, and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs (muffins made with frozen berries will take longer to bake - 22-25 minutes).
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
