Gluten Free Carrot Oat Muffins

Gluten Free Carrot Oat Muffins

In a Small bowl whisk together:
1 Egg
12 0z. 100% Carrot Juice (I used Bolthouse Farms)
3 TBL. Canola Oil

In a Large bowl mix with a Wooden Spoon
1-3/4 Cup Gluten Free Flour (***see Foot note***)
1 tsp. Xanthan Gum
1 Cup Gluten Free Quick Oats
2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Baking Powder
½ tsp. Salt
2 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice
½ Cup Turbinado Sugar

Add the Wet ingredients to the Dry Ingredients mix until combined using a Wooden Spoon

Add and mix in: do not over beat
1 Cups Raisins
½ Cup Walnuts (Optional)
1 Cup Shredded Carrots

Line Muffin tins with Paper liners
Use an ice cream scoop to evenly measure out the batter.
Sprinkle a little Turbinado Sugar on the top of each muffin

Bake in a Preheated 400* oven
18-20 Minutes or until done. I use a digital thermometer,insert it into the center of the muffin, when it reaches an internal temperature of 205* the Muffins are done.

Cool in pan for 5 minutes then remove and cool on a wire rack.

Makes 14 Muffins

These muffins freeze well. Make sure they are fully cooled first. I wrap each muffin individually in plastic wrap then place in a plastic container.



(***FOOTNOTE***)

You can use the recipe below for Homemade Gluten Free flour mix
or buy a Pre-made Gluten Free Flour Mix
If your using a Pre-made Gluten Free Flour Mix check to see if it has Xanthan Gum,
if it does then you do not need to add Xanathan Gum to the Recipe.


Gluten Free Homemade Flour Mix for:
cookies, muffins, bars, brownies cakes, quick & yeast breads, rolls, buns and biscuits
I got this recipe at the Gluten Free Expo.


2 1/4 Cups Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Brown Rice Flour
1/4 Cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Potato Starch
2/3 Cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Tapioca Starch
3/4 Cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Sweet Rice Flour
1/3 Cup Cornstarch

Measure all the ingredients into a container. I used a spoon to lightly mix it together then put the cover on and shake well.
(Making sure its a tight fitting cover)

The original recipe called to add 2 tsp. Xanthan Gum
I did not do that, I like to add mine to each recipe individually.
