Blueberry Muffins (Gluten Free Nut Free)

Pam from imaceliac.com shared a delicious recipe for Sour Cream Blueberry Muffins. The recipe is simple and sounded great.  We are trying to cut down on sugar, so I wondered what would happen if substituted honey for the sugar called for in the recipe.  So I studied up on how to do this, gave it a try...and the muffins turned out so great!!  Here's the recipe...

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups gluten free all purpose flour (I use Betty Crocker GF all purpose rice blend)
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp GF baking powder (I use Clabber Girl)
1/3 cup natural applesauce
1 tsp GF vanilla extract
1 egg
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup frozen blueberries

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In large bowl, combine all ingredients except blueberries.  Now when you dump all this in the bowl, it will look like a hot mess, but trust me, it will turn out just fine!

Using a hand mixer, mix ingredients till well combined.  See, now it looks like muffin batter :)

Once batter is mixed, pour in the blueberries.  Gently stir them into batter with a spoon, just till combined.

Grease a muffin pan (I use Temptations ceramic ovenware, which works great) and fill muffin cups till almost full.  

Bake for 20-25 minutes. Stick a knife in one of the muffins to make sure they are done :)

Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.

If you like, cut open the muffins and add a little butter...makes them even better!

Breakfast Casserole (Gluten Free Nut Free)

I love breakfast casserole. It is my favorite breakfast dish ever. But every time I tried to make it myself, I never could get it quite right. That was until my cousin shared her breakfast casserole recipe with me. It's delicious! Here's the recipe GF! 4 slices of Udi's GF white sandwich bread   1 lb GF bulk sausage, browned and broken up  (I use Ingles Markets Gluten Free Italian Bulk Sausage) 1 cup shredded cheese 6 eggs 2 cups milk Tear bread into pieces and place in bottom of baking dish. Sprinkle cooked sausage over bread. Sprinkle grated cheese over sausage. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and milk together. Pour over bread, sausage, and cheese. Refrigerate. You could refrigerate overnight and cook for breakfast. I have also put this together in the morning, refrigerated it all day and cooked it for supper.  Cook for 1 hr @350. (I usually cook it about 5 minutes longer, just keep an eye on it till it's done) Enjoy!
