For these gluten free ultra blueberry muffins we are giving a huge shout out to Simply Delish for this recipe inspiration! Full disclosure – we joined the Simply Delish affiliate program which essentially entails them sending us a box of their gluten/dairy-free pudding and jel boxed mixes every few months, and us coming up with recipes that involve those boxed mixes as an ingredient every month, so you’ll see a few other Simply Delish-inspired recipes on here once in a while! This one uses their classic Vanilla Pudding boxed mix and if you’re into it, use our specific link here to go check out their products, and use our 10% discount code SSGPUDDING to get 10% off of whatever you order!
“You’re turning violet, Violet!” That’s what we exclaimed to these muffins as we stirred their magnificently purple batter. And just like that winner of the golden ticket, these gluten free ultra blueberry muffins are absolutely exploding with blueberry! We used three forms of this magnificent berry in our recipe; blueberry juice (nothing added, just pure blueberry juice), blueberry extract, and whole blueberries that become little, molten, juice bombs right out of the oven.
As long as I can remember there has always been blueberry muffins available for my hungry hands. From getting the jumbo muffins from Costco, to experimenting to create the perfect gluten free version of the muffin after after being diagnosed with Celiac. This is just another twist on a childhood favorite, taking the classic and adding more forms of blueberries to finally create these gluten free ultra blueberry muffins! It was a fun time in the kitchen when we were coming up with this recipe. We hadn’t seen each other in a long while, so there was lots of bumping hips and cheerful bantering as we both tried to crowd around the mixing bowl. (I may have gotten a little too loose handed with the added purple food coloring, because they turned out near NEON! Woops!)
