I had no baking powder. What to do? Found this recipe and with a few modifications had a moist and tasty muffin. Added the frosting and it was a cupcake!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup cocoa
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 1/4 cups GF flour blend
- 3/4 cup sugar

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup nuts chopped, optional
Instructions

- Add the applesauce and egg, blending well.
- Combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cinnamon together.
- Stir in the applesauce mixture and optional nuts, just until dry ingredients are moistened.
- Fill the muffin cups 2/3 full.
- Bake 20 minutes.
