Blueberry Muffins (Vegan and Gluten Free)

These are the perfect muffins for when you feel like some comfort food (without the indulgence). These muffins are perfect to use in-season blueberries. I used gluten free flour and soya-butter, so they are both gluten free and vegan. With only 2 TBSP of honey- they are not overly sweet (that way you can add extra jam/"butter" for serving).  The best thing about this recipe - it only makes 3-4 muffins (aka. I don't ned to eat a whole pan!)

Cant wait for breakfast tomorrow morning!
