- 1/2 cup tapioca flour (starch)
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar

Method:
Preheat oven to 350F.
Line a muffin tin with baking cups.
Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl (save the blueberries). Add all the wet ingredients to a food processor and pulse until well blended. Add the dry ingredients to the food processor and pulse until all ingredients are well incorporated. Transfer the mixture back to the large bowl and carefully fold the blueberries
into the mixture. Spoon the mixture into the baking cups until just about full. Bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
**Sunflower Seed Flour - make your own! It's easy! Add 1 + 1/2 cups of raw, unsalted, shelled sunflower seeds to a food processor and pulse until the seeds break down and turn into a meal/flour. Stop before the seeds release their oil and begin to turn into a butter.
