Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups Gluten free flour blend Use a 1 to 1 baking blend if possible. Add xanthan gum if needed.
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Milk Any kind works (dairy, almond, oat, etc.)
  • 2 large Eggs Can substitute with flax eggs for an egg-free version.
  • 1/4 cup Oil or melted butter Neutral oil or melted coconut oil (may add coconut taste).
  • 1 medium Banana or applesauce Banana adds flavor, applesauce keeps it mild.
  • 1 cup Fresh baby spinach Blends easily; frozen spinach also works if squeezed well.

Mix-ins

  • 1 cup Mini chocolate chips For the sweet version.
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese Sharp cheddar for the savory version.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder Add to savory muffins.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Paprika Optional for savory muffins.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin.
  • In a blender, combine milk, eggs, oil, banana or applesauce, spinach, and cocoa powder (optional). Blend until smooth.
  • In a bowl, mix the gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Pour the blended mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  • Fold in mini chocolate chips and spoon the batter into the lined muffin tin.
  • For savory muffins, skip the banana and spinach, fold in cheese, and place in the muffin tin.
  • Bake for 16 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
  • Let them cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

If your gluten-free flour tastes grainy, let the batter sit for 10 minutes before baking to improve texture.
