- 1 egg or 1 Tbs. flaxseed meal steeped in 3 Tbs. warm water
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups gfJules™ All Purpose Gluten Free Flour
- 1/4 cup flaxseed meal or gfJules™ All Purpose Gluten Free Flour
- 1 Tbs. baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup dairy or non-dairy milk + 1Tbs. vinegar OR buttermilk
- 1 cup chopped fresh washed and hulled strawberries
- 3/4 cup diced rhubarb
topping:

- 1-2 Tbs. brown sugar depending on how sweet you like your topping
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 F (static).
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter and brown sugar until light. Add egg or egg substitute and vanilla, and mix until incorporated. Whisk together the dry ingredients and stir in, alternating with milk until fully mixed. Stir in chopped fruit. Scoop to fill muffin cups 2/3-3/4 full; the batter will be thick.
- In a small bowl, stir together the pecans, brown sugar, oats and cinnamon. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or two butter knives – when mixed, it will resemble a coarse meal. Sprinkle on top of the muffins or mini-loaves.
- Bake muffins for 20-25 minutes, mini-loaves for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean.
- Remove to cool on wire rack before serving or cutting.
- Yield: 16-18 muffins
