I sort of fell into these gluten free pumpkin spice muffins. The other day the boys got home from school and it just turned into one of those days. You know the kind I’m talking about, where everything you do seems to be wrong. That was what happened with dinner. My steak was still frozen so I needed to go to plan B, also known as Breakfast for dinner. The boys requested pancakes so I quickly grabbed our King Arthur Gluten Free Flour and whipped up my Gluten Free Pancake batter. My husband was frying up the bacon and the whole house was in a whirlwind. I poured the pancake batter and waited for it to bubble, but when I went to flip the pancakes over they wouldn’t flip. They just sort of folded in the middle, and they got all gooey. I tried another one. It did the same thing. That is when it dawned on me to look at the box. Yep, I had not picked up the Gluten Free Flour, I had picked up the King Arthur Flour Muffin Mix, Gluten Free, 16-Ounce (Pack of 3)! So I grabbed the muffin pan, added the rest of the mix and made muffins instead. These are light, beautiful muffins that the kids just love. They are a family favorite now.
