You might not know this about me, but I am HUGE corn muffin fan. As in I ate one every single day as a child. Even as a kid, I would choose a buttery corn muffin over a chocolate chip muffin. Weird–I know. But I think we can all agree there is something distinctly nostalgic and delicious about a corn muffin.

A corn muffin is also super versatile. You can serve it up with butter in place of a dinner roll, eat it for breakfast, pack it as a snack for a hike, or dust it with powdered sugar for dessert. What’s not to like?

What are blueberry banana cornbread muffins?

Okay so I know these aren’t exactly a classic muffin flavor, but they really should be. Blueberry banana is one of the most underrated combos in my opinion. And blueberry cornbread is also an excellent flavor combo. So why not smoosh those two together into the best buttery, gluten free muffin you’ll ever eat.

The base of these easy muffins is a banana corn muffin kept moist with greek yogurt and coconut oil and held together with a combination of corn flour and gluten free flour. The result is a super tender muffin with just the right amount of corny flavor. Load that muffin up with fresh blueberries and you’ve got yourself a damn good muffin.
