Truth: I do a lot of baking with greek yogurt and eggs. Not exactly vegan-friendly! And while I'm not vegan myself, or gluten-free entirely, I love making recipes that are nourishing, simple-to-make, and satisfy what YOU want! Some of you are allergic to eggs. Some of you are entirely vegan and have to adapt most of my recipes to some extent. But what I heard from you, via my blog's Facebook page is that you want more compltely vegan recipes. Soooooo, voila!!
Introducing GF Vegan Pumpkin Muffins
These are gluten-free because I used brown rice flour, my new favorite friend. And they're vegan because they don't use any dairy, any eggs, or any butter. And yet... they are still absolutely delicious!!
A dense pumpkin muffin, rivaling Starbucks' pumpkin bread, that is sooooooooo much healthier!
Besides baking up these scrumptious muffins, we also went out hiking amongst the aspen trees. We were about 2 weeks too early for the really vibrant yellow/orange colors, but it was still a beautiful day!!
And we captured this infectious smile while Babycakes was tailgating with her daddy. #newfavoriteactivity
