    Tip for making gluten free pumpkin muffins

    • Make sure the eggs and milk are at room temperature, which incorporates them quicker and easier with other ingredients. I recommend taking these ingredients out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before starting.
    • Pumpkin puree - buy from store or make your own. Choose your favorite pumpkin (I love to use butternut squash for this), slice into cubes and bake at 390 F (200 C) for 30 minutes. Let cool down and using an immersion blender or food processor mix into puree.

    How to make gluten-free pumpkin muffins from scratch

    Prep

    • Homemade Pumpkin puree, roast diced pumpkin in the oven until soft.
    • Oats - Grind the oats in the grinder to a fine flour.
    • All ingredients especially eggs and milk need to be room temp.

    Method

    1.Preheat oven to 350°F (180 C).

    2.In a large bowl whisk together maple syrup, pumpkin puree, eggs, egg white, and milk until fully combined. In a separate bowl, mix oat flour with salt, soda and cinnamon.

    3.Add the flour mixture into wet ingredients (slowly, ½ cup at a time) and mix well until fully combined (you can use a spoon for this).

    4.Finally, add vanilla extract, nuts, and chocolate chips. Mix to combine.

    5.Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside. Scoop batter into each prepared muffin cup and using a lightly greased spoon, spread it into edges of the cup aiming to pile more batter in the center of each cup. 

    6.Sprinkle chocolate chips or shredded chocolate on top of the 12 muffins.

    7.Bake for 25 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out almost clean or clean (these muffins are really moist inside due to pumpkin puree and it is okay if the toothpick comes out not 100% clean).
