Cinnamon Apple Muffins

This looks like a lot of ingredients, but it is a really easy recipe. For an easier option, you could replace the flours and starch with 1 1/2 cups of Pamela's Ultimate Baking mix and leave out the xanthan gum.

In a small bowl mix together the following ingredients:
* 1/2 cup rice flour
* 1/4 cup millet flour
* 1/4 cup sweet sorghum flour
* 1/4 cup cornstarch/tapioca starch
* 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
* 1 tsp baking soda
* 1 tsp xanthan gum
* 1 tsp cinnamon
* 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

In a large bowl beat the following ingredients until smooth:
* 1 cup applesauce (no sugar added)
* 1/3 oil (olive or vegetable)
* 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
* 1/4 cup agave nectar
* 2 tsp vanilla
* 2 eggs
* 4 Tbsp apple juice

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. Then stir in the following:
* 2 cups chopped granny smith apple
* 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes. Makes 12 delicious fall muffins :)
