"My husband and youngest two like these, our eldest doesn't. If you don't like brown sugar just substitute with more white. I use Australian metric measurements."

These muffins are really wonderful. We just found out that DH is Gluten intolerant and he hasn't been too keen about making the needed dietary changes. I made these muffins this muffins for him this morning and he was pleasantly surprised. Best of all, everyone in the family enjoyed them too. Thanks for sharing! Made for AU/NZ Swap 19

I absolutely love these! They were so moist, tender, and held together very well. i used guar gum instead of xantham gum, because that's what I had on hand. I also topped them with coconut because I'm a coconut fanatic. They rose so high, which is great because many of my gluten-free muffins have been short and dense. Thanks for this delicious recipe!
