Chocolate Cupcake Recipe

My biggest complaint about using gluten-free recipes is that they call for about 20 different ingredients to attempt to come close to the "real thing".

This recipe is from RecipeZaar and all I did was change the flour to a gluten-free Multi Blend Flour Mix.

It's unbelievably easy and comes out moist and fluffy - no grit or crumbles. I cut the cupcakes and put vanilla ice cream inside and it tastes like real ice cream sandwiches.

This is the recipe for the gluten-free Multi Blend Flour Mix

1 cup brown rice flour

Sounds great and similar to my favorite:

Open Original Shared Link

I use featherlite or sorghum flour mix or 1/2 of each.

I add 3/4 cup of chips or part pb chips...mmm...I made it yesterday for a valentine. My dd wants a no egg version like yours. The one above, I read somewhere, said to use 2 T. of oil in place of the one egg. I will be making another cake today :P

HAPPY CHOCOLATE!! :D

I tried your egg free recipe and it turned out great...thanks! It made 12 cup cakes. The recipe I posted is alot more chocolatey. My dd is not a chocolate lover like me so she will really like your recipe and I will frost hers with vanilla frosting...mine get chocolate of course!

forgot to mention I used 1/2 sorghum mix with 1/2 featherlite (white rice) flour mix and 3/4 tsp. xanthan gum.

Have you tried to make other flavors like white, yellow, strawberry, pb or lemon...??? My dd would like pb, white or yellow...and other dd would like lemon, strawberry or the chocolate.

I'd LOVE to do a white or yellow but I don't know what to use instead of the chocolate. In this recipe I think that the chocolate powder is like additional flour.

I was thinking gluten-free (non-dairy) vanilla pudding mix??

BTW - I just put a layer or raspberry preserves in a couple - unbelievable! And using preserves instead of frosting these are really low fat!

Yummy! I was thinking of trying Nesquik strawberry powder...hm...should work. When my dd got home last night, she ate 2 cupcakes and loved them!

I'm so glad! This was the first time that I baked something gluten-free that didn't need anything done to it (heating, toasting) to give it a normal texture and it's also the first time that I ate all of what I baked!

It was still moist 5 days later.

That sounds good! I'll try it out as soon as I can!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese s...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Kirkland brand (at Costco) is gluten-free and is 2,000 IU.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also...

Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.

I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.
