Natalie,

I just made these muffins for my boys this morning for breakfast. They were truly wonderful. Thanks so much. I’m looking forward to trying more recipes soon!

Karen-
Thanks for the information on the Smuckers jams. The company has told people they are gluten free but cant be sure of cross contamination. Obviously, there must be some issue with cross contamination! Needless to say I do not buy their products.

Wavybrains-
Thank you for the information on the aspartame and MSG, I will have to keep that in mind! That may be what I am reacting to! When I am pregnant, I do not have the same reactions and so I am dealing with a lot more reactions to things I didnt remember/know bothered me. I am keeping a food diary. I am praying I don’t have another allergy. ugh. It is hard to tell when wheat could be in anything.

These look great and I’m floored by the low amount of sugar! Must try these! I use the 100% fruit jams–either Smuckers or an organic depending on price/where I am. I haven’t had a problem with any of the 100% fruit jams and I’ve used the orange marmalade 100% fruit several times. I have a had a problem with cheap jellies that contain preservatives or those that contain aspartame. Remember, for many celiac people, aspartame can be another substance that can produce mild/serious reactions that can *feel* a lot like a wheat reaction. It took me a while before I figured that MSG and all its forms and aspartame could also make me feel really icky.

Ooo, how yummy!!

As for the smuckers products- I had the worst gluten reaction to some strawberry jam on gluten free toast, I am the only one that eats jam at my house, so I know there wasn’t a chance of contamination by my family. It was so horrible, I haven’t had any type of store jam or jelly since. I am hoping to beg some jam from my sister or mom- they make fantastic homemade jams.

I also loved almond flavor in baked goods. Great idea. Can’t wait to try it.

I agree with both of you…I ADORE almond in my baked goods as well.

Great addition Natalie!

SM- They were great plain. Just the right amt of sweetness. They are decadent with the icing!

Mary Frances- When I was converting this recipe gluten-free I decided to use ground almonds for some of the flour and then felt the need to add almond extract for that same reason. I added an entire teaspoon in order to get all that almond flavor goodness!

I agree with SM; those look great. Were you able to taste the almond? I used to love the almond flavoring in bear claws, and just the thought of getting that hint of almond in your muffins has my mouth watering.

I call these fabulous cupcakes!! They look so decadent!

I love marmalade. These are going on my list. Man, we are starting to have TOO many good recipes!

I think when I make them I will just top them with butter…yummy melting butter when warm…

:happy sigh:
