Pumpkin Muffins {gluten free/ egg free/ dairy free/ nut free}

Some days you just have a craving for something very particular that someone else has made. These times are trying.. You may find yourself searching through pinterest boards of the friend who got you hooked in the first place, and eventually call her at work at ask where the hell that recipe is!! Then you might find out that the recipe comes from her mom and she'll have to call to get you the details... UGH..  Needless to say this recipe was an adventure (note there's no baking instructions...)!
Here's what you need:
(recipe from Heather's Mom)

Here's the list with my adaptions: 
-1 2/3 gf flour (I used my usual gf flour mix (it has guar gum in it already- if yours doesn't you'll need to add a tsp of xanthan gum or guar gum)
-1 cup sugar
-1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
-1 tsp baking soda
-1/4 tsp baking powder
-1/4 tsp salt
-2 flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flax plus 2 tbsp water (for each 'egg'))
-1 applesauce cup (standard size) plus enough coconut oil to make 1/2 cup total
-Chocolate chips (just make sure they're gf and vegan!)

This ones super easy to whip together. 
Combine and mix the dry ingredients. I use a whisk to make sure all the different ingredients are fully combined and mixed. Then add the wet ingredients. Mix until fully combined. Add chocolate chips. Spoon into muffin tins, 3/4th full (lined or greased). 


Bake at 350 for 22 minutes.


Makes approximately 16 muffins.
