options/suggestions if I used to be to make use of coconut or quinoa flour?

I feel you possibly can use 1 1/2 cups quinoa flour and they might come out effective, however not 100% constructive. Should you go along with coconut flour, attempt utilizing 1/2-3/4 cup and rising the eggs to 2. I’m actually not constructive if coconut flour would work in any respect.

  I’m with you on the coconut flour – I haven’t had nice success with Coconut flour and I discover it normally requires a large number of eggs.
  As for Quinoa flour I’ve used it 1 for 1 in lots of recipes and all went properly. Yap 1 1/2 cups flour – quinoa works 🙂

OMG! I used to be simply making a wholesome carrot cake cupcake recipe and this got here up! Wow, that’s so cool <3 In any case this appears tremendous tasty and I will attempt it someday!

Might a mixture of sorghum, rice, and almond flours and tapioca starch be used as one other (apart from the instructed almond flour alone) gluten-free substitute for the wheat flour? Wouldn’t it be really helpful to additionally add xanthan gum? (I take advantage of these components fairly ceaselessly in all of my GF baking/cooking.)

As well as, would substituting stevia or maple syrup for the powdered sugar work in forming the glaze?

Made this yesterday with just a few substitutes as I didn’t have a bunch of issues. I used to be a bit frightened however they turned out to be the most effective rattling muffins. Like simply accessible excellent bites of carrot cake.

I Swapped the applesauce for mashed banana. Swapped the milk for home made Greek honey yoghurt. Added the sultanas and toasted coconut.

For sugar, I used a couple of tablespoon of maple syrup (final of the bottle) and 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar. With the mashed, ripe banana and the honey within the yoghurt it was lots candy sufficient!

I additionally used a mixture of wholewheat and white flour (approx ratio entire:white is 40:60).

Closing change I made was including a bunch of freshly squeezed lemon juice to the cream cheese glazing (and omitting the vanilla extract right here). I solely used 1 tsp of milk then thought of including lemon juice.

Subsequent time we agreed it may do with even stronger lemon flavour so we are going to attempt including lemon zest as properly.

I’m glad these swaps labored out properly! Excellent snack 🙂
