Tasty and healthful. They're very moist and will change your opinion about spelt! I often change the fruit I add to this recipe, depending upon what I have. Shredded carrot and raisin is a great combo, or crystalized ginger and pear, or apple walnut, etc. Recipe works well without the banana, too.
Ingredients:
2 1/3 cups spelt flour
1/4 cup ground flax seeds
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
2 eggs, beaten or 2 egg substitute
1 ripe banana, mashed in a pyrex measuring cup
1/4 cup applesauce or 1/4 cup yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup honey
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup raisins (optional)
1/4 cup nuts (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Mix all dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
3. Add the eggs, applesauce or yogurt, vanilla, honey, and buttermilk to the mashed banana.
4. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently stir. Do not overmix.
5. Combine the fruit and nuts with the batter.
6. Fill oiled muffin cups 3/4 full.
7. Sprinkle tops of muffins with additional flax seed meal and bake for 15-20 minutes.
