Double Chocolate Muffins are gluten-free. This recipe uses gluten-free oat flour. Though, I like to make my own homemade oat flour, you can either buy it or make your own. However, it’s so simple to make. Just pulse gluten-free oats until it’s very finely ground. Then sift it and your homemade oat flour is ready to bake with it.
These delicious muffins are vegan, too. Skinny double chocolate muffins are egg-free and dairy-free, too. Instead of regular milk, these are made with soymilk.

Gluten-free chocolate muffins are refined sugar-free, too. These muffins are sweetened with organic and natural sweeteners- coconut sugar and organic maple syrup.
