Gluten Free Honey Sweetened Muffins

Ingredients
  

Muffin Batter

  • 1 1/2 c. Gluten Free Flour Blend 180 grams
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Pinch nutmeg / cinnamon
  • 1/4 c. canola oil
  • 1/4 c. honey
  • 1/2 c. milk preferably full fat
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp almond extract you can use vanilla extract instead

Mix-ins

  • 1/3 c. soaked dried fruit OR fresh berries
  • 1/4 c. mini chocolate chips + extra for sprinkling

Streusel from Baking Mischief (optional)

  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp gluten free flour
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, whisk milk, oil and honey. My suggestion is to measure oil first. Doing so will allow you to measure the honey and have it easily slide out of the measuring cup. Add egg and vanilla, whisk, and then set aside.
  • In a larger bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and spices. Give it a quick whisk to make sure all ingredients get combined equally. 
  • Slowly add wet ingredients to wet and whisk to incorporate. Use a spatula or spoon to stir in chocolate chips and fruit, or whatever mix-ins you prefer.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Fill silicone muffin cups 2/3 full. I used a Pampered Chef medium scoop, which is approximately 2 tbsp. I filled it to heaping.
  • Top with a few chocolate chips for garnish. Sprinkle additional streusel on top, if desired. Bake for 22-25 minutes. (Check at 20 minutes.) I would suggest rotating the pan halfway through to achieve uniform browning.
