Excellent Pumpkin Muffins with Crumble Topping

These pumpkin muffins are fantastic.  They are wheat (gluten), egg and sugar-free.

Combine:

2 1/2 cups wheat free flour mix (using the tapioca blend)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1/2 cup dextrose
3 packets Truvia

Combine in another bowl:

1 tablespoon ground flax seed mixed with 3 tablespoons warm water
1/4 cup liquid oil
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
~2/3 cup warm water

Combine the wet ingredients with the dry.  Pour into prepared muffin cups.

Topping:
Combine 1/2 cup dextrose, 1/2 cup sorghum flour, 3 tablespoons butter and mix until crumbly.  Sprinkle over muffin batter in pan.

Bake muffins for about 15 minutes at 400F.  Serve warm with honey, if desired.
