Gluten-Free Chocolate Rum Cupcakes

3/4 cup sorghum flour
1/4 cup + 2 tbsp white rice flour
1/4 cup almond flour
2 tbsp corn starch*
1/3 cup cocoa
3/8 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp xanthan gum
1 cup cane sugar
1/4 cup + 2 tbsp vegetable oil
3/4 cup non-dairy milk
1/4 cup light rum
1/2 tsp almond extract

In a medium bowl, whisk or sift together the flours, corn starch, cocoa, baking soda, salt, and xanthan gum.

In a large bowl, whisk or beat together the sugar, oil, non-dairy milk, rum, and almond extract. Add the dry mix to the wet in batches, whisking or beating until thoroughly combined. Pour into a muffin tin with a dozen cupcake liners. Bake at 350 for 20-22 minutes.

*Wheat-based cake flours have starch added for lightness, so some is added here for the same effect.
