The Gluten-Free Flour Mom

My photo
Almost fifteen years ago, I used to bake brown rice flour muffins so I had a healthy snack on hand at school. Since then, my baking has come a long way. I've decided to get to the heart of these ancient grains that make delicious and nutritious gluten-free flours. I keep tweaking my own blend, made with teff, quinoa and brown rice flour. I love baking for my friends and customizing the recipes so that anyone with an allergy can enjoy them!

SUPERFOOD MUFFIN with ancient grains and seeds

Finally, I've been up nights and early mornings with my new quest to have my baking mix include superfood grains and seeds. Now my muffins are a source of omega 3's. Until this morning, my muffins were too dry with the new addition of flax and chia. I got it right this morning with a little more mashed banana!!




250 grams of Amy Ruth's mix (includes all raising agents, superfood grains and seed)
350 grams of mashed bananas (approximately 3 large bananas)
180 ml of pear puree (1/2 cup)
70 ml of vegetable oil (1/3 cup)
2 eggs
60 grams of a sweetener like stevia or xylitol
and a splash of vanilla extract and cinnamon

These fill up 12 muffin tins and bake at 350/180 for 20 minutes.
This is my breakfast with a huge superfood smoothie! (and a cup of coffee...)
