Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with a gluten-free non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, applesauce, melted butter, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter may be a little lumpy, but that's okay.
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your delicious, fluffy gluten-free cinnamon muffins fresh, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
