    Thanks guys! I'll let you know how the peach muffins turn out! First though...cranberry orange marmalade muffins... :-D

    What's confusing is that there are so many mango muffin recipes and no one (that I could find) mentions this issue but I have seen others mention it about other fruits. For the bran muffins I discovered they were still incredibly delicious sans-mango, so I make them with just the berries now & have no probs. If I'm feeling extra spiffy (did I really just...

    Yes I agree!! That has been the greatest tip for my muffins. Expect that I almost never actually have buttermilk so I use regular milk curdled with apple cider vinegar (1 cup to 1 Tbsp) and it works great! You can also use milk that has soured and add a little extra ACV. Great way to use up old milk you'd throw away otherwise! Sorry, I know this is off-topic...

    Hi guys! I love muffins with fresh fruit in them but I'm having trouble with the batter surrounding certain fruits not cooking. For instance I made bran flax muffins with blueberries, cranberries & diced mango. There were little pockets of raw dough surrounding the mango (but not the berries). For the next batch I tried freezing the mango before adding...

    I don't agree that you need gums, though in many recipes you do need a binder. I use a combo of ground flax and psyllium husk powder and it works great - without the gummy texture xanthan tends to add. Also, different flours - like teff - hold together better than others. For a lot of my recipes I use a blend of about 2 parts tapioca starch, 1 part potato...

    Thanks so much everyone!! My latest batch came out REALLY good. Great texture and flavor. I'll post the recipe soon! :-) :-)

    I would sub the oat bran with an equal amount (weight) of rice bran. Most of the gluten-free bran muffin recipes I've seen call for rice bran anyway! I'm actually making a batch right now! I'll post the updated recipe with instructions once I see how my new modifications come out. Fingers crossed! :-)

    Anyone? Pretty please? ;-)

    Hiya! I'm creating a bran muffin recipe and the first batch turned out pretty darn good. I'd like to try to give them a little more of a dark whole wheat/wheat bran flavor...any suggestions please? One bread recipe I found that said it had a whole-wheat taste had a little bit of cocoa powder in it. Does anyone know if that really gives more wheat-like...

    Oh no problem - I appreciate the help!
  11. Wheatfreeleeshy
    Ooohhhhhh. Got it, thanks. Darn, I thought I was on to something lol :-)

    Very strange isn't it! The only other place I thought might carry it is an Asian market because apparently it's native to India. I haven't called around yet though.
  13. Wheatfreeleeshy
    I did google it but couldn't find anywhere that was actually selling it. Did you find a site that has it in stock?

    Many months later, I JUST saw your post... So glad I could help!! I made the same ones for non-gluten-free friends from North Carolina & they were shocked! Lol :-D Not sure about the odd taste, hmmm... I've never had a problem with that & I'm pretty sensitive to flavors. The only thing I thought of was to make sure your butter is fresh. I keep mine...

    Anyone know where to buy Montina flour? I can't find it anywhere! I created some mango-blueberry-cranberry bran muffins that came out really delicious but I want to see if I can add a little more whole wheat/wheat bran flavor. I heard that Montina is a great way to do that. Any help would be very much appreciated!!
