Gluten-Free Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Muffins Recipe

I love to bake and the moment the cool air starts coming in I start filling our home with sweet baked goods. I love knowing what ingredients I’m putting into my foods to make sure it has the best possible nutrition for my family. When you’re buying store bought baked goods they often have a mix of things I can’t even pronounce in the ingredient list. Plus, they don’t fill your home up with an amazing aroma. This year my new favorite recipe is our Gluten-Free Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Muffins.

Around here we are big fruit pickers when summer starts. We buy pounds and pounds of fresh berries and we love to fill our freezers full. The problem is that my kids are such huge blueberry fans that we go through them much faster than we always anticipate and run out before winter even comes along. Of course, it doesn’t help when we eat them by the handful. Blueberries are a great source of vitamin C and dietary fiber. When it comes time to purchase frozen blueberries from my local Big Y, I need them to be as good as the ones I picked myself.

I was so pleased when I opened the bag of my Welch’s Blueberry Fusion. They looked identical to the ones I picked all summer long. If you were to take the two and mix them you wouldn’t even be able to tell which was which. In the past, I’ve purchased other brands and ended up with small, wrinkled blueberries that just didn’t cut it.

“The fruits in our new Welch’s Blueberries are plucked at the peak of their freshness and are individually frozen within a day to preserve their natural sweetness and ripeness. This is why we say that every fruit in our Welch’s Wild Blueberries tastes like it was just picked.”

We have been trying to give up the typical snacks for after school and thought I’d mix up the basic blueberry muffin. These Gluten-Free Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Muffins are amazing. I don’t know if muffins are the best explanation. They are almost like mini warm fruit crisp cup when out of the oven. Paired with some vanilla ice cream these would make a fabulous dessert.

If you like to food prep like I do you could even make these in large quantities and freeze them and pull out what you need when needed. I do recommend waiting until the Gluten-Free Blueberry Pecan Oatmeal Muffins are completely cooled before freezing. They can tend to lose their shape if removed when warm.
