GLUTEN-FREE PUMPKIN MUFFINS



Gluten-Free Pumpkin Muffins image

These muffins are meant to taste like the pumpkin pie your grandmother made: sweet but not too much so, and warm with cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. They come together so easily, and bake up into such a tender-textured muffin, that you might find yourself baking them all fall.

Time 1h25m

Yield 9 large muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

210 grams (1 1/2 cups) gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons whole-milk yogurt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lay out 9 muffin liners in a muffin tin.
  • Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • In another large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree and brown sugar. (For best results, use a stand mixer.) Whisk in both of the eggs, one at a time, until all trace of the egg is gone. Slowly, drizzle in the oil on the side of the bowl while whisking.
  • Add the dry ingredients, 1/4 cup at a time, then stir the batter thoroughly, until the flour mixture is half gone. Add the yogurt and stir. Add the remaining flour until all visible signs of flour are gone.
  • Fill a muffin liner about 3/4 full with the batter. Repeat with the remaining 8 liners.
  • Bake the muffins 10 minutes, then turn down the heat to 375 degrees F and bake until the muffins are browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 15 more minutes.
  • Allow the muffins to cool for 10 minutes, then remove them to a cooling rack to cool entirely.

Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 1h

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup butter
1 cup water
1 pinch salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs
2 cups heavy cream
½ cup confectioners' sugar, plus extra for dusting
1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, or to taste, plus extra for dusting
½ (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Place the butter, water, and salt in a heavy saucepan, and bring to a full rolling boil. Stir in the flour and beat vigorously until the mixture forms a ball. Place the dough ball in a mixing bowl, and beat in the eggs, one at a time, adding the next egg when the last one has been fully incorporated.
  • Drop dough by tablespoons onto an ungreased baking sheet, and bake until the puffs rise and are golden brown on top, with fully-cooked insides, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool before filling. Cut the cream puffs horizontally with a serrated knife.
  • To make filling, place the cream in the work bowl of an electric mixer, and whip until beginning to thicken, about 1 minute. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and pumpkin pie spice until well-mixed, and continue mixing until the cream forms soft peaks, about 3 minutes.
  • Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/3 of the pumpkin puree into the whipped cream. Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated. Add the remaining pumpkin puree, folding just until incorporated.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the pumpkin cream filling into each puff, and dust the top of each puff with confectioners' sugar and a pinch of pumpkin pie spice for garnish. Refrigerate leftovers.

Tips:

  • Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking the cream puffs. This will help them rise evenly and prevent them from collapsing.
  • Don't overmix the choux pastry. Overmixing will make the gluten in the flour develop, which will make the cream puffs tough.
  • Pipe the choux pastry into even-sized rounds. This will help them bake evenly.
  • Don't open the oven door while the cream puffs are baking. This will cause them to collapse.
  • Let the cream puffs cool completely before filling them. This will help prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the cream puffs in half. This will help prevent them from crumbling.
  • Fill the cream puffs with your favorite fillings. Some popular fillings include whipped cream, pastry cream, and ice cream.
  • Serve the cream puffs immediately or store them in the refrigerator for later.

Conclusion:

Gluten-free pumpkin spice cream puffs are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
