Gluten-Free Lemon Blueberry Muffins

Healthy Cooking
I am so excited to be posting my first gluten-free recipe.  For years I have struggled with weight problems, bad break-outs and stomach pain.  I blamed it on Crohn's disease.  After going on a diet and deciding to eliminate bread just for the sake of losing weight I found that all my symptoms disappeared after a few months and the weight come off too.  So I am learning to cook gluten free I will still post my regular recipes but with GF alternatives.  You can make this recipe with regular flour as well.

   
Despite the fact that this recipe is low in sugar and has no butter they are the best blueberry muffins I have made.  Even though I made them for myself the whole family gobbled them up.....
