Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or lightly grease each cup with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well incorporated.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense muffins.

Step 5

Fold the chocolate chips into the batter, distributing them evenly.

Step 6

Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Enjoy these Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
