Gluten-Free Choc Chip Oatmeal Muffins

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 egg
• 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 pinch ground allspice
• 1 cup applesauce
• 1 cup rolled oats, or more to taste
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.

Beat brown sugar and butter together in a bowl; add egg and beat until creamy.

Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and allspice together in another bowl. Stir 1/2 the flour mixture into the butter mixture. Stir applesauce into butter mixture; mix well. Stir remaining 1/2 the flour mixture into butter mixture until just combined; add oats and chocolate chips. Pour muffin batter into prepared muffin cups.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 25 minutes.
