What makes gluten free cupcakes so different is their lack of standard flour. However, they still need something to hold them together and make them “cake-like.” In this cupcake recipe, the flour substitutes of choice are rice flour and quinoa. They also contain layer of spiced apples (made from scratch by apples, rum, water, sugar and cinnamon) as well as eggs, butter and more sugar. After baking, top them with a penuche frosting and then serve!
