Intoxicatingly lemony, these “luscious” Gluten Free Lemon Muffins also happen to be butter free and would make a delicious, healthyISH, afternoon snack or breakfast!

Ingredients

For the Lemon Muffins

For the lemon glaze

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • pinch arrowroot powder or cornstarch
  • 4 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tbsp slivered almonds optional

Instructions

For the Lemon Muffins

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add the oats to a blender and pulse until oats are ground into a fine powder.
  • Add sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and almond flour to the ground up oats and blend a few seconds so all the dry ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Add the coconut oil to a bowl and microwave it for 10 seconds or until it's melted but not hot. Add it to the dry ingredients in the blender.
  • Also add in the egg and milk and blend well. 
  • Then, add in the lemon juice and lemon and blend a few seconds until everything is well incorporated.
  • Line a 6 muffin tray with muffin cups and spoon Lemon Muffin mixture into these cups and bake 18-20 minutes. Then, remove from the oven and let cool a bit before glazing. *If you glaze while warm, that glaze will run everywhere.

For the lemon glaze

  • Add the granulated sugar and arrowroot powder (or can use cornstarch) to a blender and blend on high speed for about 20 seconds.
  • When done, let mixture sit for about a minute before opening. *If you open it too quickly, your immediate surroundings will be covered with a fine layer of powdered sugar 
  • Add powdered sugar to a bowl and mix in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Drizzle glaze over Lemon Muffins, (optional) sprinkle on some slivered almonds and enjoy.
