Just made a batch. Have several recipes for pumpkin muffins. The other is with molasses. And I will post several gluten-free flour mixes I use at the end and you can choose...

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These pumpkin muffins are full of fall flavor and are fantastic. Quite the treat to wake up to or for an afternoon snack. Even if you're not gluten-free, we think you'll enjoy these muffins. In each bite, you taste ginger and cinnamon. The pumpkin is there but not overpowering. We opted to add chopped walnuts for crunch, but think chocolate chips would be yummy too.
