Need Gluten Free Banana Muffin Recipe

I have a great banana muffin recipe but DD has to now stick to gluten free and I have tried with all purpose GF flour as well as almond flour.  I am getting idea that its not as easy as replacing type of flour!  They were huge disappointment.  

If you have any  other suggestions, feel free to share.  Thanks

@Twins Mom I don't have that recipe, but if you need more gluten free recipes, check out Lexi's Clean Kitchen.  She might have a banana muffin recipe.  She has a lot of gluten free recipes.  I recently made her fruit crisp and it actually was very good!  Not as sweet as a usual crisp.

@Twins Mom @If DD has celiac disease youhave to be ultra careful; all the ingredients must come from places that do not also make products containing gluten. If DD is just gluten sensitive you can just use the gluten free recipes others have supplied.
