Spelt is an ancient grain that is easier to digest than flour. These little muffins are not dense, the texture resembles a light cake. Baking time will vary depending your oven so start checking these at 18 minutes.

SPELT MUFFINS

Tasty and healthful. They're very moist and will change your opinion about spelt! I often change the fruit I add to this recipe, depending upon what I have. Shredded carrot and raisin is a great combo, or crystalized ginger and pear, or apple walnut, etc. Recipe works well without the banana, too.
