Gluten-Free Gingerbread Muffins<\/span><\/strong>
\nAlmond Flour, High dome, Fluffy
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

I am always amazed to get light, fluffy textures from
\ngluten-free recipes. This is is one of those gluten-free
\nwonders! To achieve high domes, fill muffin wells to
\nthe top.<\/span><\/p>\n

The flavor is addictive. You won’t want to disturb it<\/span>
\nwith any frosting, except to top with powdered sugar<\/span>
\nfor decoration or with butter or whipped cream cheese
\ndue to old-time tradition.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span>Ingredients:<\/span><\/strong>
\n1\/2 cup milk
\n1\/2 tbs. vinegar <\/span><\/p>\n

(sit 5 minutes until buttermilk)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

1\/2 cup coconut oil<\/span>
\n1\/2 cup unsulphured molasses <\/span>(not blackstrap)<\/span><\/p>\n

3\/4 cup (100g) packed brown sugar (light or dark)<\/span><\/p>\n

1 large egg, at room temperature<\/span>
\n1\/4 cup (120ml) milk, at room temperature*<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2 cups (334g) almond flour<\/span>
\n3\/4 cup tapioca<\/span>\u00a0(spooned & leveled)
\n1 tsp guar or xanthan gum or ground chia or flaxseed<\/span>
\n1-1\/2 tsps. baking soda<\/span>
\n1\/4 tsp salt
\n<\/span>
\n1-1\/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon<\/span>
\n2 tsps. ground ginger<\/span>
\n1\/2 tsp ground cloves<\/span><\/p>\n


\nOptional:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Easy healthy topping choices.<\/a><\/span>
\nTip: If you add a streusel topping before baking
\nyou won’t need to <\/span>wait for muffins to completely
\ncool to add topping. They’re ready to eat while
\nstill warm.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nInstructions:<\/span><\/strong>
\nPreheat oven to 425\u00b0F (218\u00b0C).
\nBake in a preheated oven at 425-F.
\nBake 5 minutes,
\nThen reduce heat to 350-F.<\/span>
\nGenerously grease or spray a 12-count muffin pan <\/span>
\nor line with muffin liners. <\/span>Set aside.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a large microwave-safe bowl, heat the coconut
\noil and <\/span>molasses together in the microwave on high
\nfor about 1 minute. If you use dark brown sugar instead
\nof light, the muffins will be very dark. I prefer that.
\n<\/span>
\nThen whisk until thoroughly mixed together. Set aside
\nto cool slightly <\/span>as you mix the dry ingredients together.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

In a larger bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, salt,
\ncinnamon, ginger, <\/span>and cloves together.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nInto the large bowl of molasses\/coconut oil mixture, <\/span>
\nnow whisk in the brown sugar, egg, buttermilk, and milk <\/span>
\nuntil all wet ingredients are combined.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nPour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and whisk <\/span>
\nonly until just combined. It should pour off
\na spoon. Do not over-mix.<\/span><\/p>\n

If batter a little lumpy it’s OK.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Add-ins in this recipe would possibly sink, so I<\/span>
\ndon’t recommend them. If you want to include<\/span>
\nadd-ins such as raisins, I’d sprinkle some across<\/span>
\nthe tops and let them sink in while baking.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can top these muffins before or after baking<\/span>
\nwith these Easy healthy topping choices.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n


\nDivide the batter among the prepared muffin pan,
\nfilling all the way to the tops of 12 wells for high domes.
\nIf you want smaller muffins, divide the batter evenly among
\n18 muffin wells. I use non-stick silicone sets of 6 wells.
\nI set them on cookie sheets.<\/span>
\n
\nSprinkle with coarse sugar (for added crunch, if desired.!), <\/span><\/p>\n

Bake at 425\u00b0F for 5 minutes, then, keeping the muffins <\/span>
\nin the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350\u00b0F (177\u00b0C)
\nand <\/span>continue to bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the tops
\nare cracked and <\/span>centers are set. Use a toothpick to test.<\/span><\/p>\n

Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes in pan.<\/span><\/p>\n
