Gluten Free Lemon Ginger Muffins

Delicious gluten free lemon muffins with ginger and walnuts.
Prep Time:10 minutes
Cook Time:20 minutes
Course: Breakfast

Equipment

  • Citrus zester
  • Mixer
  • Muffin Pan

Ingredients

  • 1 package Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Muffin Mix
  • 1 cup milk (I prefer vanilla oat milk)
  • 1 cup melted extra virgin coconut oil
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 medium piece of ginger
  • 1 cup walnuts
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for icing

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 400. Pour mix into a large bowl. 
  • Add in the eggs (lightly beaten), melted coconut oil, and milk. 
  • Zest 2 large organic lemons. After you zest your lemons, set them aside. We’re going to use those for the icing. 
  • Peel and chop the ginger into small chunks. 
  • Chop your walnuts into dime size or smaller sizes. 
  • Add the zested lemon bits, ginger, and walnuts to your mixing bowl.
  • Mix well. I use a KitchenAid mixer, but you can use a hand mixer or even a whisk, as long as you mix really well. 
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. I set a timer for halfway and rotate them 180 degrees. I’m not sure it’s necessary but I do that just to make sure they’re cooked evenly. 

Icing Instructions

  • Add 1 cup of powdered sugar into a small mixing bowl. 
  • Use a lemon squeezer to juice the 2 lemons we zested into the bowl and mix well with a whisk. Refrigerate until muffins are cooked.

Icing Muffins Instructions

  • After your muffins have cooled for about 10 minutes, lay them out on wax paper. Use a spoon to pour icing over them.
