These gluten free double chocolate muffins are a recipe inspired by one of you. Which I love! I love helping my readers.
A few weeks ago I received an email from a reader asking if I had a double chocolate muffin recipe. I didn’t, but after discussing it with my daughter, we knew we had to come up with one.
We love muffins and my daughter loves coming up with new muffin recipes. So she thought the challenge would be fun. And I mean really who wouldn’t love double chocolate in a muffin.
We have bought and enjoyed the popular gluten free brand of double chocolate muffins. I love that brand and have worked with them in the past, but I am all about homemade versions of my favorite foods.
So we got to work creating a gluten free double chocolate muffin. What we ended up with was a recipe that we love! These might just be our new favorite gluten free muffin. They are so good!
Now, it did take some work to get these just right. My family had to eat a numerous amount of muffins before we thought we had it just right.
My family has a tough job don’t they? I mean eating and taste testing muffins can be hard. But someone has to do it. All the taste testing was worth it though because we finally got it just right.
I even sent the recipe to the reader who inspired it so she could try it. Her family agreed that these muffins are delicious!
If you love those famous gluten free double chocolate muffins, give these a try. I think you will have a new favorite muffin.
I did not figure out the exact cost of these, but I am sure they are cheaper than the ones you can buy. They also freeze well. So make a big batch and freeze them. They work great for taking out one or two at a time for a quick breakfast, lunch, or snack.
