The Best Gluten-free Pumpkin Streusel Muffins

September 5, 2019 by healthienut Leave a Comment

The Best Gluten-free Pumpkin Streusel Muffins

When I say these are my new OBSESSION I am not lying to y’all. It was hard for me not to eat the whole batch before taking the photos.

Not only are they so fluffy, but moist, perfectly sweet, crunchy from the streusel…a magical blend of flavors that hits your tongue on all the right spots. Did I intrigue you yet?

These muffins are only sweetened with maple syrup and are 100% gluten-free. Like always I used Bob’s Red Mill GF flour (not sponsored) then with a mix of oat flour.

I did use an egg in this recipe but you can definitely use a flax egg in replace. I always make sure to include a vegan option.

Healthy Pumpkin Pecan Muffins | Vegan & Gluten-free

Healthy Pumpkin Pecan Muffins | Vegan & Gluten-free

It is my first pumpkin recipe of the season and I could not be more excited. Leaves are starting to fall, raining is beginning to drizzle, and I am feeling more rushes of cold air. That might not sound the most exciting to you, but I can tell you I am definitely more a lover of autumn than summer. Want to know the greatest reason why? Food. Simple as that. 

The countless recipes you can make from fall produce and warming spices is incredible. The top of my list this season is definitely pumpkin recipes. Well, don’t worry because I have quite a lot coming your way on my blog. 

These super fluffy and moist pumpkin pecan muffins are a great way to kick off this cold weather. They are entirely gluten-free, vegan, and can be eaten with no regrets…however I believe every muffin should be guilt-free (even if its unhealthy). Treat yourself am I right? 

Embedded with chunks of pecans and topped with a creamy hazelnut frosting.

I am excited that I am finally bringing to you another gluten-free recipe, because those are quite lacking on my blog. I find that working with gluten-free flours can be quite hard, yet I think I nailed it on this one. Practice makes perfect! 

A combination of oat flour and almond flour yields a super fluffy and soft texture without creating the stereotypical crumbly and dense texture that you often associate with gluten-free desserts. 

I wanted to create a more unique frosting and veer away from the traditional cashew one. I soaked some hazelnuts, took the skin off, and added some acid, sweetness, and some liquid. The results were an ultra creamy and rich hazelnut goodness. …

Chocolate Chip Carrot Cake Muffins

Chocolate Chip Carrot Cake Muffins

One of my favorite types of cake is carrot cake, but I try to not make cake too much because 1. It takes a while to make and 2. I never end up eating it all. So what better way to enjoy it then in cupcake form and have it 10x healthier than your traditional carrot cake!

A deliciously moist whole grain muffin embedded with gooey chocolate chips, and shredded carrot. Sweetened with coconut sugar and bound with banana instead of oil. How healthier and enjoyable can that get?! …

Healthy Almond Butter Tahini Chocolate Chip Muffins

These muffins have won my dad over and I couldn’t count how many times he said, 
“Yum…” let’s just say too many to count. These were so easy to whip up and a great guilt-free dessert if you are having some late night cravings. 

The combination of tahini and chocolate is absolutely delicious. If you haven’t tried tahini…you are truly missing out. It is a great nut butter to go in sweet & savory dishes! …
