- 1 teaspoon maple extract
- 2/3 cup melted ghee
- 2 cups raw, coconut, or date sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line muffin pan with cupcake liners.
Whisk together the milk, vanilla and maple extracts, ghee, sugar, spices, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
Slowly stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until totally combined. Add the pumpkin puree and combine until fully integrated.
Fill muffin tins two-thirds full and bake for about 25 minutes or more, until a toothpick stuck into the cupcakes comes out clean. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before icing or topping with ghee and cinnamon or sugar
