Breakfast Berry Muffins
Breakfast Berry Muffins
Café muffins are traditionally loaded with sugar and gluten, so this healthy version is packed with soluble fibre from the oats, flaxseed and dried fruit and will aid bowel elimination. If you do not have rice and potato flour substitute with a commercial wholegrain gluten-free flour mix instead.
