Gluten Free Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Yummy in my tummy!  if you’re a Gluten Free person your gonna love these super soft lemon poppy seed muffins!

I’m not a 100% gluten free person but I do like to try and do GF on occasion…. I would love to at some point in time go completely GF but it’s just not all that easy unless you actually have too, I don’t think that’s in my future anytime soon.

These muffins are made with rice flour which is what makes the gluten free, if you've never tried rice flour now might be the time! Especially if you like poppy seed muffins.

I used a vanilla for the glaze (I didn't want to much lemon goin on) the vanilla goes so very well with the lemon I mean doesn't vanilla compliment almost everything? Anyways it balances the taste between sweet/sour and savory.

Anyways… lets be real, these are really good the first day but, they are sooo amazing the next day after the glaze has absorbed into the whole muffin making them soft and moist and melt in your mouth delectable!

Try these and let me know what you think! And if you agree how much better they are the next day!
