    • ½ cup tapioca flour
    • ¼ cup cornstarch
    • 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum or guar gum
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt

    • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
    • 1 cup pumpkin puree
    • 3 ounces dark chocolate, melted
    • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a muffin pan with liners, set aside.
    2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
    3. In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs and sugar. Add the melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla and pumpkin, whisk to combine.
    4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk just until no lumps remain.
    5. Divide the batter in half. Then add the melted chocolate and cocoa powder to half of the batter; stir to combine.

    Canned pumpkin is considered the same thing as pumpkin puree as they are both just pumpkin without any added ingredients.

    What can I substitute for pumpkin puree?
