Simple Blueberry Buckwheat Muffins

Today I'm going to show you how to bake a moist and delicious breakfast muffin that is soft and delightful and perfect for a quick snack. It uses a blend of gluten free flour and buckwheat.

Let’s get started!

What is Buckwheat Flour? There are nutritional benefits to eating Buckwheat. Though you hear the word “wheat” buckwheat is gluten free, rich in fiber, and can reduce your blood sugar. Buckwheat is considered a whole grain.

Ingredients: banana blueberries almond flour buckwheat flour gluten free flour baking powder baking soda cane sugar eggs greek yogurt milk spices for the streusel topping

How to make

01

In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, mash up the banana and add the wet ingredients: greek yogurt and milk. Give it a stir then add it to the dry ingredients along with the eggs.

Prepare the streusel

In another bowl for the streusel, combine the sugar, brown sugar, gluten free flour, spices and the cold butter. Cut in with a pastry blender or use your fingertips to combine. Continue to combine until it resemble coarse meal. Set it aside.

Bake for 20 minutes

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!

How to avoid baking dry muffins: – Ensure the wet ingredients are properly measured. - Don't overmix the batter. - It is also important to make sure you keep the dry ingredients seperate from the wet ingredients until you’re ready to bake. – Make sure your oven tempature is set properly and don’t over bake them. I recommend testing muffins with a toothpick. – After baking, let them properly cool down and also be sure to store them properly in an airtight container. – Use paper liners.
