Any Home Bakers Here?

Regular baking question (promise)

I make a lot of muffins and am always using things to increase nutrients. Things like mashed banana, pureed sweet potato, pureed pumpkin, applesauce, flaxseed, and molasses (for richness). What purees or additives do you guys like to add for a breakfasty or snack type muffin?
Vodka, Kahlua, rum, JD, JB, Puckers...

@SnapdragonQ To be honest, I have never made a Dutch Baby, nor have i ever eaten one that I know of, so forgive me if I am wrong, but they are not a light fluff texture like a souflle. They always looked more like an omlette texture to me. The recipe doesn't have any leavening agent to make it soft & fluffy like a cake either.

Just looking at the different ingredients for the GF flour mixes gives a hint to the difference in results. Sweet Rice Flour is made from "from short-grain rice that becomes moist, firm and sticky when cooked, a result of its higher proportion of waxy starch molecules" I can see why this blend produced a heavy Dutch baby. But rice flours don't have a lot of floavor, so the other ingredients came through, giving you a "french Toast" flavor.
The Gold GF flour has a number of "grain" sources, so I can see how those flavors would all mix together and overcome the flavor of the other ingredients - making it seem bland.

Would it work to "cheat" and add a little bit of leavening to the mix to lighten it up? Maybe a 1/8 tsp of baking powder.
Add flavor by adding a little vanilla flavoring.

Just my ideas.
