May i use Oat Flour instead of AP flour? thanks
Jillian Glenn says
Hi Marj, this recipe requires regular or gluten free all purpose flour. Hope this helps!
Mel says
Hello! Can this be made with the butter replaced with applesauce? Thank for so many great gluten free recipes. I have my eye on quite a few to try! Will tag you on Instagram when I make them. ?
Jillian Glenn says
I have had people do this and they say it's good but not as moist as without the butter! Give it a whirl! Thank you for reading and can't wait to hear how you like my blueberry lemon loaf!
Lynne says
My butter cooked out in the middle of the loaf? What the heck did I do?
Jillian Glenn says
My guess is we used the wrong kind of flour here! Be sure you used a regular or gluten free all purpose flour such as King Arthur Measure for Measure. Other gluten free flours such as almond flour or Bob's Red Mill 1-1 Baking flour will not work.
debbie says
do the bluberries have to be defrosted first?
Jillian says
They can be added in frozen or fresh!
Kaylyn says
It took 2 lemons to get half a cup of juice, so I zested them both and added it to the mix. SO GOOD. Also, I didn’t have butter so I used applesauce (AP flour) and it came out moist and perfect ?
Jillian says
Wonderful to hear! Thank you for trying my recipe Kaylyn!
Jasmine says

Jillian says
