Oat Flour Pumpkin Muffins {Gluten, Dairy and Egg Free!}

By Erin of The Humbled Homemaker

One of my favorite tastes of the holiday season is pumpkin. I know some see this vegetable as solely for fall, but I could enjoy this flavor year round. And, to me, no Thanksgiving or Christmas meal is complete without at least one pumpkin dish.

What I love best about these muffins is that not only are they nutritious, but my daughters, who both have several food sensitivities, can eat them without much fuss on my part. A pumpkin muffin that’s gluten, dairy and egg free? Yes, please!

This was my first recipe to try with the WonderMill, and I have to say: I was very impressed! I had made oat flour before using a small food processor, but the result was less than to be desired. Oh, I still used the flour, but it consisted of a grainy texture, and the processor left chunks of oats.

The WonderMill ground the oats perfectly in a matter of minutes! And, no doubt, this freshly ground flour is more nutritious (and not to mention cheaper!) than any store-bought counterparts!

Without further ado, check out this recipe for some yummy, healthy, hearty oat flour pumpkin muffins!
