Ingredients

3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground allspice
1 cup applesauce
1 cup rolled oats, or more to taste
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.
2 Beat together brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg and beat until well combined.
3 Whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and allspice in another bowl until well combined. Stir 1/2 of the flour mixture into butter mixture until incorporated. Stir in applesauce; mix well. Stir in remaining flour mixture and mix until just combined. Fold in oats and chocolate chips. Pour batter into the prepared muffin cups.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 25 minutes.
