Gluten Free and Dairy Free Cupcakes / Muffins

Slacker Mommy's Note:

These are YUMMY!!! I absolutely love them, so do my kids and they do not have to eat gluten/dairy free. Coconut flour is a must, I use coconut oil instead of butter, and you can omit the mashed banana if you want. I also add nuts, pecans are my favorite. I got this off an old message board, and I did not have a name to credit it to.

these were so delicious! I tasted the batter just to see what it would taste like and it almost did not make it in the oven. I was able to get 6 muffins out of this mix, so i just doubled the batch. Also I added a 1/4 tsp on xanthan gum due to I was afraid they would fall apart other wise. A wonderful recipe.

These didn't really rise and were doughish even after cooling, though the flavour was good. I did use the banana and egg replacer and cooked them longer than the stated time. The batch only made 4 muffins. I was disappointed.
