Gluten-Free Pumpkin-Raisin Spice Muffins

Dairy  Fruit  Fruity  Grain  Misc. Dessert  Muffin  Nuts  Oven  Spicy  Sweet 

• Cooking Time: 20-25
• Servings: approximately 6
• Preparation Time: 35-40
• 1 ¼ Cups A.J.s Special Gluten-Free Baking mix (or your own favorite GF mix)
• ½ Cup Canned Pumpkin Puree
• 1 Large Egg
• ¼ Cup milk
• 2 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice, more if you prefer (BE CAREFUL that it is made only of spices, as some anti-caking agents might contain grain products)
• ¼ Sugar
• 2 teaspoon Blackstrap or other dark molasses (be sure ingredients do not list caramel color, a possible danger)
• 2 teaspoon Honey
• 1 small handful of your favorite raisins

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix baking mix and spice together in a medium-size bowl; set aside. In another medium-size bowl, beat the egg; then add the milk; then add the sugar, molasses, and honey; then blend in the pumpkin. Slowly add in the baking mix/spice blend. This mix WILL be very stiff. It takes a strong hand to stir it. When evenly-blended, add raisins. Spoon into muffin pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, depending on your oven. Makes 6 muffins.

Years ago, I started baking for a loved-one who was gluten-intolerant. Most of the ready-baked gluten-free products available tasted like sawdust, so I started trying to create my own gluten-free formulations. I previously posted this at the Celiac.com website.
