Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

I modified this recipe (mainly replaced the coconut flour and nuts) from the original one that I found at Open Original Shared Link

Makes about 28 muffins (was 24, but more flour = more muffins! Yay!)

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup olive oil

2 1/2 cups sugar

2 large eggs (warmed in a bowl of hot water) (was 4 eggs)

2 cups (or one 15 oz. can) pureed pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)

1/2 cup water

Entirety of the flour blend recipe listed below (original recipe that follows didn

Someone (in a different thread, I guess) suggested I try using buckwheat flour as a substitute for coconut flour (instead of using tapioca flour, as I listed in the recipe). I tried this recipe with buckwheat instead of tapioca yesterday, and my wife thought the muffins tasted the same. I liked them a little better with the tapioca, but they are good either way. I also cut down even more on the chocolate chips this time around. If you REALLY like chocolate chips in your muffins, then use what the recipe calls for. We have two little kids eating the muffins, and we got tired of melted chocolate all over their faces and hands and clothes and the high chair tray (my 1 year old daughter even started crying the other day b/c she thought the melted chip on her finger was a bug, and she is terrified of bugs). Long story short, use either flour and cutting down on the chips a bit might be worth your while if you are trying this recipe.
