Ekadashi friendly breakfast or dessert muffins. These muffins are grounding and comforting and really easy to make. Buckwheat flour is made from buckwheat groats which are actually a grain free, seed. The seed is high in protein and also alkaline. Its got a very beautiful dark grey purplish color! I know many would not think that’s beautiful, but in my mind I always know buckwheat flour from its dark color. You can find buckwheat flour at your local health-food store, or in a supermarket in the baking section sometimes, if you can find it you can also just use a gluten free baking powder or any other type of flour and this recipe will turn out delicious still.
