Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick cooking spray.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt until well combined.
-
In a separate large bowl, beat together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter as this can lead to dense muffins.
-
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
-
Optional: Sprinkle a little extra cinnamon sugar on top of each muffin for a delicious crunchy topping.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
-
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Serve the Gluten-Free Pumpkin Muffins warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the comforting taste of fall in every bite!
