Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Light Buckwheat Flour
  • 1 cup Sorghum Flour
  • ¼ cup Coconut Flour
  • ¾ cup Brown Sugar packed
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 3 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Cloves
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • ¾ cup Milk
  • ½ cup Vegetable Oil
  • ¼ cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • Pepitas nuts, or coarse sugar for topping, optional.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 F, grease a muffin pan or line with paper muffin liners. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking powder, spices, xanthan gum, baking soda, and salt, set aside.
  • In a blender, process pumpkin puree, milk, oil, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Add pumpkin mixture all at once to the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened (batter should be slightly lumpy.)
  • Divide batter among 12 prepared muffin cups. If you’re adding any toppings - pepitas, sugar, etc - sprinkle it over each muffin now.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes or until golden brown and a wooden toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean.
  • Cool in muffin cups on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from muffin cups; serve warm.

Notes

Uneaten muffins can be left on the cooling rack until they’re cooled to room temperature.
Place muffins in a freezer bag or other airtight container for storage. They’ll last in the fridge for up to 5 days or so.
Best served reheated, but they’re also great straight from the fridge!
