Gluten-free Made Easy Cookbook Review + GF Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins

I’m excited to be reviewing another gluten-free cookbook today: Gluten-Free Made Easy by Christi Silbaugh and Michele Vilseck. It is chock full of delicious-looking recipes, as well as tips and tricks to make converting your kitchen to gluten-free much easier.

I’m always looking for good gluten-free muffins to put in the girls’ school lunches, and there was a particularly yummy looking recipe in the book for Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins. So perfect for the fall weather we are beginning to have!

My oldest daughter made them all herself, and while I think she may not have put enough of the dry ingredients into the streusel topping, they still turned out very tasty. I asked for permission from the publisher to share this recipe with you and they said yes. And when you try them, you’ll definitely want to make sure you have the rest of the recipes in this cookbook ASAP!
