Hey y’all! It has been a bit since my last recipe. Apologies all around. This past month I kicked the job hunt into overdrive and had lots of interviews. I received and accepted an offer and will rejoin the work force in 2 weeks. Eek!

Gluten Free Pumpkin Spice CupcakesIngredients  Maple Cinnamon FrostingInstructions Maple Cinnamon Frosting

The interviewing coupled with the kids remote learning and my own college classes kicked my butt a bit this month. That being said, I still came up with what my sister called “the best thing you have ever made.” Pumpkin spice cupcakes with a maple frosting. OMG. She was right, they are fantastic. Soft, flavorfull, everything you could want in a cupcake and here is how to do it!

Place the pumpkin, oil, eggs, brown sugar, white sugar and vanilla into a mixing bown and blend until smooth.

Here is what the wet ingredients should look like when they are all combined.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a seperate bowl. Gluten Free Flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg. Run a fork through the dry ingredients to combine them.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and blend with a hand mixer.

We now have some nice batter for our cupcakes. Time to scoop out into our muffin pan!

I always use my trusty scooper to scoop out cucakes, muffins, cookies, anything! This helps them be uniform in size so my kids don’t fight over “the big cupcake.” Cook for 20-25 minutes.

Once cooked your gluten free cupcakes will be soft and smell AMAZING!

Place these bad boys on a cooling rack and let them cool completely.

While you are waiting for cupcakes to cool, whip up the maple cinnamon frosting and frost the cupcakes in any way you choose.

Viola! Enjoy!
