That sounds great, Jen! So glad they worked, even without the leavening – that’s fantastic!

I made these the other night and they were delicious! I did not have baking powder or the substitute for it, but it still turned out well. I use Blue Diamond Almond milk vanilla flavor and the brands listed in the recipe for the other ingredients. My 2 year old dairy free son loved them also! This made one batch of mini muffins plus I have another batch of regular sized dozen in the oven now- they may be on the small side. I froze the mini ones then pulled them out when I wanted one- uinfortunately, I did not make them last.
Thanks Jules, for another great recipe!

Thanks again. I really, really appreciate how much you check your blogs!!! I’ll try it and also look into buying some other ingredients.

Rachel, not sure about that powdered creamer. I haven’t tried it – it probably has enough oomph, but maybe too much. It’s worth trying though, if you have it on hand (I love experiments!) – proportionately, it’s not a huge ingredient here. The other option, of course, is just to sub the amount of powdered milk in the recipe with the same amount of my all purpose flour. It is a lighter flour, so the results will still differ, but the taste will still be great. Let me know the results of your playing!!!

Thanks! That was very helpful. So would non dairy powdered creamer work or does it not have enough oomph?

Cream cheese and chocolate, the other two loves of my life! Can’t wait to try these out.

I shared some of the regular size cupcakes with a friend (minis were all mine!) and he cussed me when me met today. All he ate for supper the day I gave them to him were the cupcakes. Nothing else! He want’s more! What better compliment then a gluten eating friend wanting gluten free baked goods!
