Einkorn Applesauce Muffins

April 13, 2020 · In: featured, recipes

einkorn applesauce muffins with blueberries

I love having a batch of fresh baked muffins in the house for the kids to eat for breakfast with a side of scrambled eggs or to grab for a quick snack but I want them to be full of healthy ingredients too. These Einkorn Applesauce Muffins are delicious and nutrient dense so they hit the mark! The only problem is is that they go really fast around here so it’s always a good idea to double the recipe.

I’ve used Einkorn flour in this recipe because it is a much healthier alternative to most flours. Some people even consider it to be a superfood! And we all agree that it tastes much better in recipes than whole wheat. Below are a few quick reasons besides taste why I love Einkorn flour and try to bake with it as much as possible.

  • lower in gluten
  • easier to digest because it contains 14 chromosomes vs 42 found in modern wheat
  • higher in protein and fiber
  • abundant in vitamins and minerals like B6 and zinc
  • contains carotenoid which acts as an antioxidant in the body
  • lower in starch and carbohydrates

Plantain for the win! My daughter got a spider 🕷 bite yesterday morning that immediately swelled and became hard so I ran out to the backyard and grabbed a Plantain leaf. I bruised the leaf and placed it on the bite mark then wrapped her foot with an elastic bandage. We changed out the Plantain leaf 3 times and by last night it was totally back to normal! 🙌🏼 

Plantain can actually pull out venom or infection from the skin’s tissues. Native Americans called it “snake weed” for this reason. 

As a caveat I’m not saying to use it in replacement of medical treatment for a venomous snake or poisonous spider bite but what I am saying is to use it until you can get medical treatment if needed. In a survival situation knowing how to identify and use Plantain could very well save your life.
Did you know that Magnolia has potent anti-inflamm Did you know that Magnolia has potent anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive (reducing sensitivity to painful stimuli) properties? The bark, green cones and flower buds can all be used. 

It is also shown to work on the endocrine system by increasing GABA activity and reducing stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol. 

Magnolia can be made into a tincture or it’s petals used in a salad. 🥗
