Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups gluten free baking flour I like King Arthur GF Measure for Measure 1:1 Flour
  • 2 teaspoon pre-mixed pumpkin spice Use as much or as little depending on how you like it
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup organic pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup zero calorie sweetner (granulated) I use sucralose
  • 1/2 cup unsweetned organic applesauce
  • 1/4 cup dairy milk or coconut milk I prefer coconut milk for this recipe
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 scoops unflavored plain whey protein powder I like NAKED unflavored plain whey protein powder

Additional things to consider

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves Extra yummy spice
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger A little goes a long way
  • 1-2 tablespoons ground flax seed Increase the fiber content with flax seed

Instructions
 

  • Mix wet ingredients in one bowl, mix well.
  • Mix all dry ingredients in another bowl, mix well.
  • Combine both bowls together, mix, but do not over mix. Muffins never need to be over mixed, say like cake batter does. Mix only until everything is mixed together.
  • Bake at 350 about 20 minutes for mini-sized muffins. OR 25 minutes for regular sized muffin tins. I recommend using parchment paper liners for the cups. They bake perfectly and easy clean up.
