· 1¼ cups granulated sugar

· ½ cup dark brown sugar

· 3 eggs

· 1 pack simply good jell-o vanilla bean pudding

· 1 teaspoon salt

· 2 teaspoons baking powder

· ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum (only if your flour blend doesn't already contain a gum)

· 1 tablespoon cinnamon

· 2 cups high quality gluten free all purpose flour or my preferred mix: ½ cup white rice flour, ½ cup brown rice flour, ½ cup potato starch, ⅓ cup plus 2 tablespoons sweet sorghum flour, and 2 tablespoons tapioca starch

· ⅔ cup water

For the filling:

· 2 tablespoons butter, melted

· For the frosting:

· 1 stick butter, room temperature

· 1-1½teaspoons cinnamon

· 2¾ cups powdered sugar

· 2 tablespoons milk or cream

· ½ teaspoon vanilla

· Dash of salt

Directions

1. Begin making cupcakes by preheating oven to 350 degrees. Line muffin tins with paper liners. In a large bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until smooth. Add pudding mix and whisk until smooth.

2. In a smaller bowl, whisk together salt, baking powder, xanthan gum (only if your flour blend doesn't already contain a gum), cinnamon, and gluten free all purpose flour (or my preferred mix).

3. Add dry ingredients to wet and stir until smooth. Slowly add in water and stir until batter is smooth. It will be runny, but this is normal. Let batter sit 10 mins. Stir until smooth.

4. Fill liners ⅔ way full with batter and bake at 350 degrees for 22-24 minutes until tops spring back at touch of a finger and toothpick inserted into center of cupcakes comes out clean.
