Carrot Raisin Buckwheat Muffins (gluten-free, egg-free, nut-free, vegan)

I
Instead of reinventing the wheel, I idea I would percentage alongside you lot today a recipe from my cookbook (The Whole Life Nutrition Cookbook). Some of you lot may get got made these already, but for those who get got not, the photos volition in all likelihood inspire you lot to give them a try!

These muffins create non require whatever xanthan gum. I know this is a strange-sounding nutrient ingredient, but it is necessary for the most business office inwards gluten-free baking. The xanthan mucilage helps to concur baked goods together as well as give them elasticity. It too helps to retain wet as well as growth mouth-feel. For those of you lot who are unfamiliar alongside xanthan gum, hither is a neat Definition from www.wisegeek.com:

"Xanthan mucilage derives its advert from the strain of bacteria used during the fermentation process, Xanthomonas campestris. Xanthomonas campestris is the same bacteria responsible for causing dark rot to assort on broccoli, cauliflower as well as other leafy vegetables. The bacteria assort a slimy core which acts every bit a natural stabilizer or thickener. The United States of America Department of Agriculture ran a number of experiments involving bacteria as well as diverse sugars to develop a novel thickening agent like to corn starch or guar gum. When Xanthomonas campestris was combined alongside corn sugar, the number was a colorless slime called xanthan gum."

I get got flora that most recipes which purpose buckwheat every bit the top dog flour create non require xanthan mucilage as well as truly plough out amend without it. Buckwheat flour forms a stringy goo when mixed alongside a liquid as well as the halt production holds together surprisingly well.

Some people react to xanthan gum, piece others would rather avoid it. It tin drive digestive upset, peculiarly for those who get got weak digestion or bacterial imbalances inwards the gut. 

And now, the Carrot Buckwheat Muffin recipe from my cookbook. I didn't add together raisins to these this time, my girls decided that they don't tending for raisins inwards baked goods anymore. They happily scarfed downward (along alongside their twin brothers as well as a friend) the entire batch of muffins inwards 1 day! I estimate that is a testimony inwards itself!

If you lot are a buckwheat lover as well as thus you lot volition to relish these gluten-free muffins. Try adding to a greater extent than carrots, raisins, closed to shredded apple, or whatever chopped nut for a denser, to a greater extent than nutritious treat. These muffins travel neat every bit a quick breakfast, but serve alongside a light-green smoothie for a balanced as well as energizing meal. I grind my ain buckwheat flour from raw buckwheat groats. I notice the season as well as texture of this fresh flour superior to that of the packaged roasted, terra firma buckwheat flour.
