Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 cups buckwheat flour
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup arrowroot powder (or tapioca starch)
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 eggs

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with liners or spray generously with cooking spray.
  2. In one bowl, combine the buckwheat flour, almond flour, arrowroot powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce and eggs.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined and no dry streaks remain. Do not overmix.
  4. Fill each muffin cup 3/4 full with the batter.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  6. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

- To ensure a moist texture, avoid overmixing the batter once wet and dry ingredients are combined; stir only until no dry streaks remain.
- If you don't have arrowroot powder, tapioca starch is a perfect 1:1 substitute, yielding similar light results.
- These muffins freeze exceptionally well. Once completely cooled, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. When I need a quick snack, I just microwave a frozen muffin for 20-30 seconds, wrapped in a paper towel, and it's perfect.
