Intro: Gluten and Dairy-Free Dark Chocolate Chip Flaxseed Muffins

In this instructable, my two nieces and I will teach you how to make Gluten and Dairy Free Flaxseed Muffins with Dark Chocolate Chips. A special treat, since both my nieces can not have gluten. While on vacation in Atlanta, they wanted to make a recipe with me. This is a quick and easy recipe to make. Follow the easy steps below or watch the video or do both! My nieces are adorable in the video. :) Enjoy!

Here is a recipe for a Gluten Free Flour Mix. You substitute this flour cup for cup of regular flour - the below makes about 3 cups worth.

  • 1 1/4 cups brown rice flour
  • 3/4 cup sorghum flour or buckwheat flour
  • 2/3 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup potato starch
  • 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon potato flour
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum

Combine all the ingredients together and store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.

STEP 5: Fill Up the Paper Cups

After the chocolate chips are folded in, fill up the paper cups about 2/3 to 3/4 depending on the size you want your muffins to be. Then put them in the oven and bake them for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F.
