Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 and 3/4 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. If using, gently fold in the chopped nuts.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your gluten-free flour blend contains a binder like xanthan gum. If not, add 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum to the dry ingredients.
  • For a dairy-free version, you can substitute the butter with coconut oil and the milk with almond milk or another plant-based milk.
  • You can also add chocolate chips for an extra treat.
