There’s not much like the refreshing taste of lemon combined with fresh blueberries.The light melted butter along with the brown sugar substitute makes the crust crunchy while the inside soft and creamy! You’ll be sure to have seconds with this one!

What kind of flour can I use?

Wheat, White All-Purpose Flour, Almond, Gluten-Free, or Self-rising Flour:

After testing and making my base bread recipes a zillion times, I’ve been able to master the texture and taste.  I like to use self rising flour along with 1 tsp of baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda. The added baking powder and soda makes this loaf or muffins rise better and makes them nice and fluffy.  

However, you may substitute the self rising flour for whole wheat, all-purpose flour, almond flour, or gluten free flour.  If you do decide to use any other flour other than self rising flour- you’ll want to add an additional 1/2 tsp of baking powder to the mix to ensure the texture is on point.  

• Gluten-Free Flour: If you are looking for a gluten free option, you can substitute the self rising flour for gluten free flour. 
• Almond Flour:If you are looking for a low carb option, you can substitute the self rising flour for Almond flour 

What sweetener to use?

I use Lakanto Classic Monkfuit Sweetener and Lakanto Golden Monkfruit Sweetener in my baking recipes. The Classic is a zero point white granulated sugar substitute and the the Golden is a zero point brown sugar substitute.  Lakanto MonkFruit Sweetener is a zero glycemic, zero calorie and all natural sugar substitute. It is by far the best tasting sugar alternative and has zero aftertaste or gritty texture like some of the sugar alternatives have. It has a 1:1 ratio to real sugar-so if you were to use a different sugar substitute you will want to use the measurement that would be equal to real sugar. If you use a different sugar alternative you’ll want to check the point value on the brand you use. They can vary in points.

Can I use more fresh lemon juice instead of adding lemon extract?

Yes, you bet. I recommend adding an extra TABLESPOON of fresh lemon juice plus 1 tsp of lemon zest to enhance the lemon flavor as a substitute for the lemon extract. 

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cup self rising flour ( I use Gold Medal) 
• 1 tsp baking powder 
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 large egg or 2 large egg whites
• Dash of lemon extract or 1-2 tsp fresh lemon zest 
• 3/4 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
• 1/2 -3/4 cup water (start with 1/2 cup and add an additional 1/4 cup if needed)
• 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice (1 lemon)
• 2 Tbsp zero point brown sugar substitute (I use Lakanto Golden Sweetener) 
• 3 Tbsp sugar substitute ( I use Lakanto Classic Sweetener) 
• 2 Tbsp Land o’ Lakes made with canola oil light butter melted or you can substitute 3 Tbsp of unsweetened applesauce in place of the light butter

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray loaf pan (9×5 or 8×4) or muffin tin with non stick cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl add egg, water, lemon juice, lemon extract or lemon zest, and brown sugar substitute. Stir well.
3. In a separate bowl combine, self rising flour, baking soda, powder, and white sugar substitute.
4. Add dry ingredients into the wet slowly as you stir.
5. Before the two are incorporated add in frozen blueberries and melted butter. Stir just until barely combined.
6. DO NOT OVER MIX. The number one tip is to not over mix.
7. Pour batter into pan or muffin tin. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until an inserted knife or toothpick comes out clean. If making muffins decrease the cooking time to 18-20 minutes.
