Gluten free Jumbo Pumpkin Muffin

· Recipes

These gluten free pumpkin muffin is to die for, you would never be able to tell that there aren't gluten in there. I choose not to put chocolate chip in some because Maya have them too and we havn't introduce chocolates as yet to her. My husband is alway skeptical trying gluten free item but this one, he was really impressed. What can I say I must be getting better at this :))
