How to Make Gluten Free Morning Glory 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: 2 cups gluten-free flour blend, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon salt, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients: 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, ½ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs (or 2 flax eggs for vegan option), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup water.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the remaining ingredients: 1 cup shredded carrots, ½ cup raisins, ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans, and ½ cup chopped pineapple (optional).
  6. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 22-25 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.
