Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups Sharon’s Nightshade-Free Gluten Free Flour Blend
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 2 large Egg room temperature
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar lightly packed
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/3 cup Avocado Oil
  • 1/4 cup Milk room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 cup Nutella (see notes for dairy free)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F and line a standard muffin tin with 12 paper liners or spray well with non-stick spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour, xanthan gum, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, oil, milk, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Transfer the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups.
  • Top each muffin with 1 teaspoon of the Nutella and use a toothpick to swirl into the batter.
  • Bake the muffins at 400°F for 16-20 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes then remove and cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or room temperature.

Notes

  • Store muffins in an airtight container up to 3 days or freeze in a freezer bag up to 2 months.
  • I use my Nightshade Free Gluten Free Flour Blend in this recipe. If you use a flour blend that contains xanthan gum, omit the amount called for in the recipe.
  • To make these muffins dairy free, use unsweetened coconut milk beverage in place of the milk and use a dairy-free/vegan chocolate hazelnut spread.
