Almond Butter Blueberry Muffins

Have you ever bought a baking ingredient, not knowing exactly what to do with it? You bring it home, add it to your pantry and say, ‘I’ll get to you someday’. And there it sits; patiently waiting for its turn. Each time you run into the pantry for ingredients, it pops right up and screams ‘Pick me! Pick me!’, but you always just walk away and say ‘I’ll get to you someday’. This was my relationship with agave nectar, but all has changed since I made these Gluten Free Dairy Free Almond Butter Blueberry Muffins.

Gluten Free Dairy Free Almond Butter Blueberry MuffinsAgave nectar is a great alternative to sugar. As it is sweeter than sugar, you don’t need to use as much in your recipes, making it a perfect substitute in these muffins, which I like to enjoy for breakfast. Since these would be my ‘breakfast muffins’ the only bit of sugar in these is the ½ tbsp of brown sugar I mixed with ground cinnamon to sprinkle on top – because really, who could resist the smell of warm brown sugar and cinnamon? As I did not have fresh blueberries on hand, I used frozen ones which worked just fine (no defrosting required by the way). When I make a batch of these muffins, I’ll typically leave a couple out for the next day or two, and then freeze the rest. This way I always have a yummy breakfast muffin on hand.

Gluten Free Dairy Free Almond Butter Blueberry MuffinsYes, I know… this recipe is a little different from the sweet treats I normally prepare, but I figured starting my day off with a big bowl of cupcakes topped sky high with buttercream probably isn’t a good idea…as much as I’d like to tell myself it is.
