Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Gluten Free Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
  • 1 large Egg room temperature
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream room temperature
  • 1/2 cup Milk room temperature
  • 1/3 cup Avocado Oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon Butter Extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a standard muffin pan with 12 paper liners or spray with non-stick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten free flour, xanthan gum, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, sour cream, milk, oil, vanilla extract, and butter extract. Add the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups and bake for 18-22 minutes or until done.
  • Remove from the baking pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
  • When cool, frost with frosting of choice.

Notes

  • For dairy free, use plain dairy free yogurt in place of the sour cream, use unsweetened coconut milk in place of the regular milk, and reduce the xanthan gum to 1/4 teaspoon.
  • Canola or vegetable oil can be used in place of avocado oil.
  • I use my Nightshade-Free flour blend in this recipe.
