There are a few flavors that are always associated with Christmas – peppermint, egg nog and last but not least, gingerbread. There is no reason that you can’t enjoy gingerbread even if your diet is restricted. These gluten free Gingerbread Muffins are gluten-free, dairy free and vegan. They are delicious and perfect for Christmas morning! I’ve heard these muffins are SO good that they were gone in three days!
These muffins are safe for friends and family – even those with food allergies and sensitivities. They can be made ahead of time, but they are truly marvelous when eaten warm just out of the oven.

I am not vegan or gluten allergic, but this recipe looks good, I would probably use regular flour if I was to make these. I love the gingerbread though, they always smell good! Thank you and Happy Holidays!
