I am a total texture person. There are some foods that I just can’t eat because of their texture. Chia seed pudding, those boba teas, definitely not okay. Uck, that slimy texture just does not go over very well.
I usually run into this texture catastrophe when I try to eat gluten free baked goods. I usually don’t love gluten free items because their texture is just off! So, when I found out about this awesome contest of finding the perfect gluten free blend, it was game on!
I was determined to make something that was gluten free and had an amazing texture. Well folks, here it is. I give you, Gluten Free Poppyseed Muffins. They were a HIT at my house! I never thought I would say that! I really didn’t think it was possible to make something gluten free that would disappear so fast and be a favorite with my friends and family.
