Available for a limited time, this seasonal muffin flavor delivers the distinctive taste of fresh blueberries. The muffins themselves are made from a blend of cornstarch, tapioca starch, oat flour, and three types of rice flour to mimic the gluten’s signature texture-building properties. The flavor mixture is then infused with sour cream, vanilla flavor, and a touch of lemon oil to create a moist and cakey-like base. Each muffin is then studded with a generous portion of sweet blueberries and finished with a [coarse sugar and oat streusel top](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lemon-streusel-muffin).
