BUCKWHEAT FARINETTA MUFFINS



Buckwheat Farinetta Muffins image

Buckwheat Farinetta is supposed to have the highest concentration of D-chiro-inositol (which has been shown to dramatically help those suffering from insulin resistance, PCOS, and infertility). According to the website where I purchase the buckwheat farinetta, a 1 cup serving has 600 milligrams of the stuff (which was the daily dose administered in one of the studies). A woman posted this recipe on a trying-to-conceive message board, and I have tweaked it only slightly. The women on those boards swear by this stuff. Since I have only made one batch of these muffins so far, I can't comment on their effectiveness, but I can say that the recipe is very tasty and my husband (who has no need for the muffins) absolutely loves them.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups buckwheat flour (preferably buckwheat farinetta)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
15 ounces canned pumpkin
3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk (or sub. water)
3 tablespoons oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup walnuts (chopped)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix all the ingredients together (excluding the nuts).
  • Add the nuts.
  • Spoon into muffin tins. Its best to use paper liners because they tend to stick, (even with spray-on cooking oil). They don't rise very much at all, so you can really fill the muffin tins up.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
  • (Note: You can also add 1/2 a cup of ground flaxseed to this recipe, which is another food that is really helpful for PCOS and infertility.).
