Healthy Gluten-Free Baking: Gluten-Free and Flour-Free Banana Muffins

BY HEALTHY EATING 
Gluten-free baking has lacked flavor, fiber, and nutrients for so long, as most recipes rely on gums, starches, and processed flours. In comparison, this baking process incorporates pre-soaked whole grains and is a perfect substitute as it delivers baked products of superior texture, taste, and nutritional consistency. Preparation is therefore far less expensive than gluten-free blends and standard gluten-free recipes. This has the additional advantage of making the entire family's wholesome gluten-free meals inexpensive and attractive. (No more eating differently than the majority of the gluten-intolerant family members!).

As the whole grains are soaked for a period of time to facilitate the breakdown of enzyme inhibitors and to maximize nutritional value, I typically refer to these recipes as' blender recipes' and then processed in a blender for use in a pancake, muffin, cake or cookie recipe.


The quality is comparable to those manufactured from gluten-free flours of baked goods made from mixed soaked grains and is much more similar to those of the white flour products that we are used to. They're both nutritious and more economical! Gluten-free "blender" recipes are some of my favorites and the extra work spent on setting some grains to soak until baking time is totally worth it.

So here’s a basic blender recipe for-

Gluten-free Flour-free Banana Muffins

1 1/3 cups brown rice

1/2 cup whole millet

1/3 cup raw buckwheat

1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar

_________________

1 1/4 cups water

2-3 ripe bananas

2 Tbsp. oil/butter

3+ Tbsp. honey*

1 tsp. apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup ground flax

1 tsp. cinnamon

¼ tsp. nutmeg

3/4 tsp. sea salt

___________________

2 tsp. baking powder

½ tsp. baking soda

Soak the grains in plenty of water overnight (or for at least 8 hours), plus 1 Tbsp. From vinegar. Drain, and then apply the ingredients in the correct column to the blender. Gently mix the baking powder and soda until the batter is very smooth (sift through a sieve and whisk in to avoid lumps). Pour the muffin cups into oiled ones. Bake for approximately 20 minutes at 400 degrees. Create 1 1/2 dozen or so muffins.

* or agave or maple syrup

Option: add 1 cup of raisins to muffin batter before baking.

Make sure to oil your muffin cups well so that they can quickly be released. As the clean-up is simplified, I recommend using a baking stone (muffin top style).
These muffins stay healthy, and they freeze great!
