To your favorite gluten-free muffin mix to make these delicious 4 INGREDIENT GLUTEN FREE PUMPKIN MUFFINS that the whole family will love!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve attempted a gluten free pumpkin muffin recipe this fall and failed miserably. All I want it a gluten free pumpkin muffin that’s not ugly and tastes delicious. Fail fail fail. I finally gave in a purchased a gluten free muffin mix (the King Arthur’s brand), so that I could make my own pumpkin version by adding only a few ingredients to the mix!
What I used was: the gluten free muffin mix, an egg, pumpkin puree, and a little almond milk. That was my base…4 main ingredients.
To get that lovely spicy fall flavor, I of course added some Pumpkin Pie Spice and for kicks…a handful of mini dark chocolate chips.
So really- it was more than 4 ingredients, but you get my jiff!
I am really happy with how they turned out. Extremely moist, fluffy, and not ugly! They also tasted good, which of course matters the most, right?
Because I am a chocolate lover, I added a chocolate/coconut oil drizzle to the top I simply mixed about 2 tablespoons of mini dark chocolate chips and about a teaspoon of coconut oil. I nuked it for about a minute and voila…you have the perfect chocolate sauce to top your muffins with.
I love how moist these ended up without ANY oil or butter! Thank you pumpkin puree.
