Dried Plum Powder helps bind moisture in gluten-free flour blends, taking the place of xanthan gum. The powder also deepens the sweetness of the muffins.

Gluten-Free Muffins Base Recipe

Instructions

    In a large bowl, whisk the flour, plum powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, butter, kefir, eggs, and vanilla.

    Fold the egg mixture into the flour and mix well until combined. Let rest for 20 minutes to allow the flour and plum powder to hydrate and bind moisture.

    Preheat a convection oven to 350F [180C] or a standard oven to 375F [190C]. Lightly oil a 12-cup muffin tin.

    Divide the batter between the muffin tins. (If making fruit muffins, add the fruit on top and press into the batter.) Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.

    Bake until the centers of the muffins are cooked through and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool 5 minutes, remove from muffin tin, and let cool completely. Freeze if not serving the same day.
