Gluten-Free Fruity Oat Muffins

Gluten-Free Fruity Oat Muffins
These muffins are big on flavour and sure to entice even those who have no trouble with gluten. Play around with the fruit: Try dried blueberries, strawberries, raspberries or chopped apricots. People with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease should not buy dried fruit or nuts from bulk bins, since the products may be cross-contaminated with gluten-containing ingredients from another bin. (People often use the same scoop in different bins.) It is best to buy sealed containers.

Ingredients:

1 cup (250 mL) gluten-free oats
1/3 cup (75 mL) brown rice flour
1/3 cup (75 mL) tapioca flour
1/3 cup (75 mL) cornstarch
1 tbsp (15 mL) gluten-free baking powder
1 tsp (5 mL) baking soda
3/4 tsp (4 mL) xanthan gum
1/2 tsp (2 mL) cinnamon
1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
1/2 cup (125 mL) dried cherries
1/2 cup (125 mL) dried cranberries
1/3 cup (75 mL) golden raisins
1/2 cup (125 mL) granulated sugar
2 tsp (10 mL) finely grated orange zest
2 tsp (10 mL) finely grated lemon zest
2 eggs
1-1/4 cups (300 mL) Balkan-style plain yogurt
1/3 cup (75 mL) light-tasting olive oil or safflower oil
1-1/4 tsp (6 mL) vanilla
1 tsp (5 mL) cider vinegar

1/3 cup (75 mL) gluten-free oats
