Gluten Free Blueberry and Banana Muffins

Gluten Free Blueberry and Banana Muffins

Gluten Free Blueberry and Banana Muffins { Quick and easy lunchbox friendly and school safe blueberry and banana muffins the whole family will love! } Contributor: yum. Gluten Free { INGREDIENTS } 3 large bananas, the riper the better 1 teaspoon baking soda ⅓ cup butter, melted 100 g honey As much cinnamon as your heart desires ¼ teaspoon ginger, cardamom or nutmeg (or all! Go wild!) ¼ teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 large eggs, whisked 1½ cups gluten free flour or 1¼ cups gluten free flour and ¼ cup collagen or protein powder* 2 tablespoons flaxmeal 1½ cups frozen blueberries* { NOTE } *COLLAGEN + PROTEIN* I use Unrefined Nutrients Collagen Peptides and Kids Immune Protein. For 15% off, use code OLIVIA15. I am a proud partner of this family-owned Queensland business. *FROZEN BLUEBERRIES* work best because they hold their shape while baking, preventing the muffins from turning purple and keeping the batter from becoming too wet. { METHOD } Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan-forced) and lightly grease a muffin tray. In a blender (my choice) or large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Stir in the baking soda. Melt the butter and mix in the melted butter and honey until well combined.  Add the salt, cinnamon, cardamom or nutmeg, vanilla and whisked eggs, stirring until everything is evenly blended. Gently fold in the flour (or flour-protein mix) and flaxmeal until just combined. Avoid over-mixing here. Fold through the frozen blueberries. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin tray, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean. (Mine took 20 minutes) Allow to cool in the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy for 5 days, if you don’t live in Queensland. If it’s hot and humid, pop them in the fridge on day 2 so they don’t go mouldy. Prep time: 10 MINUTESCook time: 20 MINUTESTotal time: 30 MINUTES+ 12 muffins + *COLLAGEN + PROTEIN* I use Unrefined Nutrients Collagen Peptides and Kids Immune Protein.

5 GLUTEN FREE TIPS WHEN TRAVELLING IN NYC

5 Gluten Free Tips When Travelling In NYC

5 GLUTEN FREE TIPS WHEN TRAVELLING IN NYC { ARE YOU ABOUT TO HEAD TO THE BIG APPLE, OR DREAMING ABOUT IT? THEN CHECK OUT THESE 5 EASY TIPS TO STAY GF IN NEW YORK. } Contributor: Lyn Mendelsohn, Gluten Free NYC When visiting any new places you need to research all the restaurants and services you want to actually do before actually being in that city since so many places will say they’re gluten free but not actually follow-through/understand what cross-contamination is.  So definitely research and make sure you call ahead to see if they will have the options you want when eating out. Reservations are necessary at 95% of the Gluten Free restaurants in New York City. So unless its a very small place (which means you need to get there at least 30 minutes before you want to eat or 1 hour during a holiday weekend) make sure you call ahead (at least a week and make a reservation). Scout out the areas you will be visiting during your trip so you know exactly where you want to eat and if possible meet with a travel expert for that city online before you go away so you can make a full itinerary!  Some of my favourite areas to show people in New York City are the Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Union Square, and the West Village! If traveling with children make sure you are scouting out family atmospheres so they will not get bored while you are away.  I always recommend some of the major attractions with kid friendly options!  Gluten Free Ice Cream, Broadway show/MET visit, Stop at the Nintendo Store, Gluten Free Pizza, and Indoor playground anyone? Make sure you know how many public transportation rides you will be needing when visiting specific places since you can’t get everywhere by walking (it would take a really long time to walk from Union Square to the Upper East side). No matter who you’re traveling with to ensure you have a GREAT time, make sure to plan ahead. When visiting New York City make sure to stop at these 2 places to buy your Gluten Free Essentials:  1. Westerly Market located at 911 8th Avenue, 2. Fairway (various throughout the city with a HUGE Gluten Free section), and 3. G-Free NYC located at 77 West 85th Street.
