How to make gluten-free muffins light and fluffy?

To bake light and fluffy gluten-free muffins it is important to keep your wet and dry ingredients separate until it is time to blend them together. Also, you must make sure you have the right ratio of wet and dry ingredients. While recipes call for exact measurements, you can usually tell if the muffins will be light and fluffy by the texture of the batter. You can always adjust midway through if necessary.
