- 1 and 3/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 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 and 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
- In a separate medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gradually add the milk and stir until the batter is smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can add 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the batter.
- Ensure your gluten-free flour blend contains xanthan gum. If it doesn’t, add 1/2 teaspoon.
- These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
