Gluten Free Peanut Butter Muffins

Jump to Recipe

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Muffins are an easy and delicious gluten free breakfast, snack, or dessert!

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Muffins

We love making gluten free muffins and usually make a batch once a week. Muffins make a great breakfast, lunch, or snack on the go. On the go meals or snacks are a must if you have kids, teens, or college kids at home. 

You can buy gluten free muffins and gluten free muffin mixes, but they are so easy to make homemade. You can control the ingredients and you can make them just the way you want to. 

These peanut butter muffins are a favorite at our house. They are a little bit more filling than a normal muffin, so they work great for a quick breakfast. 

Because these muffins have peanut butter in them they are not a super light and fluffy bakery style muffin. They are a little bit denser than some muffins, but they are delicious. 

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Muffins with Chocolate Chips

Can peanut butter muffins be made without peanut butter or with a peanut butter alternative? 

Yes, these muffins can be made peanut butter free. My daughter has a peanut allergy, so I actually don’t make these with peanut butter anymore. I usually use Wowbutter, but other peanut butter alternatives should work as well. 

When you have a nut or peanut allergy filling on the go snacks can be challenging so we love having this option. 

Can you freeze gluten free muffins? 

Yes, gluten free muffins freeze great. In general muffins freeze well. I freeze them all the time. I don’t think that I have ever had a muffin that didn’t freeze well. 

We almost always have muffins in the freezer because my kids love them for a quick breakfast.
