Applesauce Muffins (from Eating for Autism by Elizabeth Strickland)

The muffins in Elizabeth Strickland's book are all outstanding. This book is an excellent resource if you're considering special diet/nutrition therapy for your child!

1/2 C brown rice flour
1/2 C sorghum flour (aka jowar flour)
1/3 C canola oil
1/2 C unsweetened applesauce
1/2 C honey (I use agave nectar instead)
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp. vanilla (I typically use a full tsp. instead cause my LOVES vanilla :)
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. xanthan gum (or guar gum)
1/2 tsp. cinnamon (I usually use a little extra)
1/2 tsp. salt

Mix it all together and bake in lined muffin tin for 15-18 minutes at 350.

This recipe is super versatile! You can add dried/fresh fruit and/or nuts. You can omit the cinnamon and add fresh or frozen blueberries or strawberries...or chocolate chips...whatever. Experiment and see what you like best!
