Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the white rice flour, sugar, oat flour, gluten-free flour, baking powder, and cinnamon until well combined. (5 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil, yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth. (3 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix by hand until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are okay. The batter should be mostly smooth, with no visible patches of dry flour. (5 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Gently fold in the chopped walnuts, raisins, and pumpkin puree until evenly distributed throughout the batter. (3 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. (5 minutes)

07

Step
20 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. (20 minutes)

08

Step

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For a richer flavor, try using brown sugar instead of white sugar.
If you don't have oat flour, you can make your own by grinding rolled oats in a food processor until finely ground.
Feel free to substitute other nuts or dried fruits based on your preference. Pecans, almonds, cranberries, or dried apricots would all be delicious additions.
These muffins are best enjoyed within 2-3 days of baking. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

    These muffins are fantastic! My kids loved them, and I appreciate that they're gluten-free.

  • Carlee Lueilwitz

    I was skeptical about using pumpkin puree, but it really adds a wonderful moistness to the muffins. I'll definitely be making these again!

  • Camron Crooks

    The recipe was easy to follow, and the muffins turned out perfectly. I added a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top before baking for a little extra sweetness.
