I am eliminating gluten (or trying to) from my baking. My aunt was diagnosed with celiac last June. She had eaten gluten her whole life, suffering from different digestive health illnesses and she has found such relief by removing gluten from her diet that I am curios how I will feel if I do the same!...This is initially proving to be a problem because I cook for most of my friends/roommates, none of whom are gluten. (Or at least none of whom have been diagnosed) They were all expressing dissatisfaction with my buckwheat/millet/bobs red mill GF mix (I agree with your assessment-yuck!) muffin adventures. They missed my muffins of old, white, spelt, whole-wheat pastry, etc...then I made them blueberry-lemon-zest-coconut-flour-deliciousness and all mumbling and grumbling about my adventures in gluten free land went out the door...I can't wait to try your German Chocolate cake and not tell my dad its gluten free until he's done eating it! muahaha! I did make some modifications. I prefer honey to agave- straight substitution. I did not have grapeseed oil so I used half olive and half coconut oil (melted on the stove top), I added the zest and juice of half a lemon, and topped the whole messy affair off with 1/2 teaspoon vanilla! Vunderful :) Thanks for the inspiration!!! Dear Elana- Thank you so much for all of your wonderful recipes! I am eliminating gluten (or trying to) from my baking.

Our family loves your mini-blueberry muffins so much, and I was delighted to find out that they are only one point each after putting your recipe into the Weight Watcher's recipe builder. It must be the coconut flour with all of the fiber it has in it that keeps the point value low. Thanks for satisfying all of our food issues: gluten free, casein free, and Weight Watcher's...all with one recipe! Hi, Elana!

I think it always helps to see someone execute a project, no matter what the subject. But, blueberry muffins ... now that trumps most other subject matter! BTW, I have a bowl just like your medium-sized bowl. ;-) Shirley Great job as always, Elana! I think it always helps to see someone execute a project, no matter what the subject.
