A friend needed some ideas for GF muffins. This is what I came up with. It's a basic GF muffin base and 10 mix in ideas. Happy baking.
Basic GF dairy free muffin base.
1 1/3 cup GF flour
1/3 cup tapioca starch
2 teaspoons of baking powder
3/4 teaspoon of salt
1 large rip banana
1 cup coconut sugar (sucant and brown sugar can be used as a substitute)
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup coconut milk (or any other non dairy milk)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons of maple syrup
Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl; add the tapioca starch, baking powder, ¾ teaspoon salt. Whisk to combine.
In another bowl mash the banana. Add the sugar, oil, non dairy milk, applesauce, vanilla & maple syrup. Whisk to combine the ingredients.
Add the liquid ingredients to the flour mixture and fold in.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Bake for 25 minutes. Makes 12 regular sized muffins.
