| Sugar and Gluten free Pumpkin Muffins. |
I have made various discoveries about Vegetable Oil over the past week or so. I wanted to remove that ingredient from this recipe which I originally put up a few months ago, since starting my sugar free life.
So here it is. My reworked Pumpkin Muffin Recipe. Let me tell you. It's way better than the first one
The muffins are slightly sweet. It might be best to describe the taste similar to a pumpkin scone but with more of a cakey texture. Smother them with extra butter (NOT MARGARINE) as they come out of the oven.
Recipe:
2 cups Gluten Free Self Raising Flour
Pinch Salt
1 cup mashed, steamed pumpkin. I steam my pumpkin in the microwave. Sometimes it creates some yummy residual pumpkin juice, chuck that in too.
1 egg
80 grams melted butter
1/4 cup full cream milk
Chuck the ingredients in a bowl and mix. Place in a well greased muffin tray and cook in a moderate oven for 10-15 minutes until slightly brown on top.
I've given up buying Gluten Free bread now and making these instead.
You'll love them. Trust me.
OK,I think I HAVE to try these!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy mother-in-law buys gluten free treats in bulk from a bakery, which she can then freeze and take one to work each day. However, this bakery is out of her way, as well as pricey, so I thought I'd whip some of these up for her instead. She tends to eat these treats for morning/afternoon tea, so I made them slightly sweet by adding a tbsp of honey as well as a 1/4 tsp of cinnamon. As a side note, I used macadamia oil instead of vegetable as I thought its subtle flavour would be better in this dish. Needless to say, my mother-in-law was very pleased with her tasty treats!
ReplyDeleteSorry, just realised that I'd posted on your reworked recipe rather than the original one I followed. If you're saying this is better then I shall definitely give it a go!
DeleteThese are fabulous!! I made them with sweet potato as I didn't have any pumpkin and added some chives - yummo!! Thanks for the great recipes!!
ReplyDeleteMy nine month old son enjoyed them just as much as I did. Thank you!!!
