Blueberry Muffin Tops (grain and dairy free)

I love berries, much more so than other types of fruit. Mostly I think it is nostalgic, going berry picking with my mom, grandmother and sister. Raspberries and blueberries grew in our own backyard, as I would play I would grab a handful and go.

I saw someone eating a delicious looking warm blueberry muffin WITH BUTTER! at the bakery the other day (I was getting a coffee). I haven't been able to kick the craving. Any baked good with a berry is my kryptonite. I love blueberry pancakes, blueberry muffins, berry pies- but my stomach doesn't allow me to process gluten. Here was what I did!

Blueberry muffin tops:
2 cups almond flour
1/4 coconut flour
3 tbsp coconut milk
2 tsp coconut sugar or skip
1 tsp lemon rind
1 1/2 cups blueberries
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
3 eggs

Mix together dry ingredients, then add wet and blueberries! Drop batter onto an oiled baking sheet. Bake for 10 mins at 350. Voila! You could put coconut oil or ghee on your warm muffin. Seriously... SO GOOD!
Enjoy
