Introduction

These are nutrient packed, sugar-free, gluten-free delicious brunch muffins. They are higher calorie because I used whole, local foods, but low cal substitutes could be used too.

Ingredients

    1/2 cup golden raisins
    1 large apple, a mid-sweet variety, like fuji or pink lady

    1/4 cup each of coconut oil and butter
    1 cup diced rhubard
    2 eggs

    1/2 cup each of millet, sorghum, and tapioca flour (or your favorite gluten-free flour blend, don't forget to adjust soda/gum as needed)
    3/4 cup gluten-free oats
    1/2 pecan halves, then crunch them into small pieces
    1 tsp each of baking soda, baking powder, xanthan gum

    1 cup grated cheddar cheese


Directions

Cook raisins and apple in boiling water for a few minutes until soft, then drain

Puree raisins and apples

Mix together fruit puree, eggs, coconut oil, butter, and rhubarb

Mix together separately flours, oats, pecans, soda, powder, and gum

Add wet ingredients to dry and mix well. Fold cheddar cheese into the mix.

Add milk and mix just until fully moistened

Bake at 350F for 25-30 min until toothpick comes out clean.

This made 15 large muffins with ~1/3 cup batter each, but I think it would also make nice mini muffins.
