Tasty Grain-Free Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins with Streusel Topping

Grain-Free Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins with Streusel Topping | The Family That Heals Together

Blueberry muffins are the way to a little boy’s heart, of that I’m sure. When I made my boys a rare treat of baked goodies for brunch, my oldest proclaimed “these are better than pancakes!” These blueberry buttermilk muffins are super simple to throw together, are grain and gluten-free, and are yummy to boot!

After taking our boys to an amusement park this past weekend and letting them indulge in junky food (we even went all out on a “volcano” ice cream and chocolate cake dessert at a fun, kid-pleasing, majorly over-priced, animal-themed restaurant to let our oldest feel extra special as we celebrated his ninth birthday), I’m glad healthy food still pleases them.

Did I mention I got super sick after forcing my big boys to ride a ride with me that I was sure I would love? I’ve never gotten sick on amusement park rides before, but I think I might be getting old… I rode a few rides before declaring surrender. My poor boys were just getting warmed up about the time I couldn’t hang anymore.

I’m pretty sure I had an “amusement park hangover” the next day… which is definitely a thing. I’ve even been sore like I worked out. Which we all know definitely didn’t happen.

Ok, enough moaning, groaning, and lamenting about aging. There’s still life in me yet! And I will definitely live another day to make these blueberry buttermilk muffins again. If you want to try them out, grab the recipe below.

Make these blueberry buttermilk muffins for the little one in your life.
