Gluten-Free Raspberry-Ginger Muffins Zach DeSart

Most gluten-free flour mixes rely on rice flour or cornstarch, which can create a gummy texture. But the main ingredient in Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Baking Flour is garbanzo flour. The muffins we made with it had the best flavor, texture, and color out of all the brands we tried.

Ingredients

Makes 12

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups plus 1 tablespoon gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon finely grated peeled ginger
1 1/2 cups fresh (or frozen, thawed) raspberries
  1. Step 1

    Coat 2 standard 6-cup muffin pans with nonstick spray. Whisk baking powder, salt, and 1 1/2 cups flour in a medium bowl. Whisk egg, brown sugar, butter, milk, and ginger in a large bowl; mix in dry ingredients. Toss raspberries with remaining 1 tablespoon flour in a small bowl; gently fold into batter.

    Step 2

    Divide batter among muffin cups and bake until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, 25–30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in pan before serving.

    Step 3

    DO AHEAD:Muffins can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

  • I used a combination of almond and coconut flour, yogurt instead of milk, coconut oil instead of butter and I added a ripe banana and a can of well-rinsed black beans. Mixed it all in a blender, then added chocolate chips and pecans. The result -- moist, tasty, high protein and fiber, lower cholesterol and fat. Next time I'll add cinnamon and maybe chile powder for a mole' flavor.

  • Inh¿. I really liked the flavor, but the consistency of these muffins was gummy rather than cakey. This is the challenge with gluten free I suppose.

  • This a delicious template for gluten free and xanthan gum free muffins. I followed the earlier suggestion to omit the ginger and add a teaspoon of vanilla. I substituted chocolate chips for the berries. Baked the muffins for 23 minutes at 350 degrees.

  • Thanks to the Cook from Westchester for listing the oven temp :) I followed BA's suggestion of using another fruit and swapped in thawed frozen blueberries for the raspberries, and 1 tsp. vanilla instead of the ginger. These muffins are delicious and, I think, just as good as their gluten-containing brethren.

  • A bit dry but a pat of butter does wonders. The combination of ginger and raspberries give a taste that is sublime. We however have a bone to pick with your recipe. You fail to mention the oven temperature!!! Shame on you. We went ahead and set the temp at 350.
