How to Make Gluten Free Gingerbread Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: ⅓ cup unsweetened applesauce, ⅓ cup molasses, ¼ cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in ⅓ cup milk (or more if needed for desired consistency).
  6. Fill each muffin liner about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
