Aliper’s Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Berry Muffins

1. Combine dry ingredients.
2. Combine wet ingredients.
3. Mix wet mixture with dry and beat well until batter is formed. Add water if mixture seems too thick. Should be the consistency of cake batter.
4. Add berries and mix briefly.
5. Bake in greased muffin tins at 375 F for about 30 minutes (be sure to check after 20 minutes).

Tip
Organic quinoa flour or organic amaranth flour can be used instead of tapioca flour. Since some individuals are senstive to xantham gum, guar gum is also an acceptable substitute. Instead of the cane sugar, organic agave syrup can be incorporated into the mixture . Agave syrup has a low gylcemic index, so it is suitable for those with diabetes.
