Thanks for a great recipe - my whole family loved these. Very moist and tender. -
Absolutely delicious! I substituted oat flour and used 3/4 cup applesauce and increase cinnamon! What a treat! I am fighting the urge to eat all of them at once! -
These came out great! I baked them at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes. I used the rice flour as called for and the muffins held together surprisingly well and were not gritty at all. Very moist, too. The only thing I did not like about them was the slight baking soda taste. Next time I might try using chopped apple instead of grated for bigger apple chunks. -
Re: "low cooking temp" referenced in Dec 29 review, 180 degrees celsius = 350 degrees fahrenheit. -
This was the first time I made a GF recipe; it was for a newly diagnosed co-worker. I was surprised at the low cooking temp and disappointed in the result, very gritty.

Made into a cake for a family get-together. I don't understand the one star reviews this got. I made mine into a rectangular cake, and it is very moist, not gritty or dry. Next time, because I made it into a cake instead of cupcakes, I will make a double batch. When it cools, I plan to frost it with a butter cream frosting made with coconut milk. Thank you SandraMK for this recipe.

This is really great! Been celiac for 2 months and was getting tired of not being able to eat good food, and then i found this!!! I also substituted 1 cup of mashed banana for the applesauce, and added 1/2 cup of chocolate chips! really good that way too! -
Loved this! Hubby used 1 cup of apple sauce instead of apples. Made it using gluten free (corn free) baking poweder #38461 and Flax Egg Replacer #104832. I did not have my hope up with so many substitutions but was VERY surprised at how good they were.

Good muffins. I used a gluten free mix and used agave syrup instead of sugar. I added cinnamon, butter, sugar crumbs on top. Kids loved them. Thanks!

These are great and a hit with my kids. I did vary it a little. I used oat flour instead of rice and 3/4 cup of applesause instead of the apple. The result is amazingly moist muffins with a cake like texture. Also i sprinkled a few oats on top to make them look pretty. Thanks for this recipe!!!

I'm a stay at home Mom with 3 children ages 3, almost 2 and 3 months. I love motherhood and think it's the most rewarding job I've ever had. Possibly the hardest too....! I was lucky enough to meet the perfect man so have been blessed with a happy life so far. I don't get much 'me' time these days so when I do, I usually head straight to the computer.
I was diagnosed a coeliac some 5-6 years ago and have been restricted to eating a gluten free diet.
