    If you're looking for a healthy and delicious vegan breakfast or snack option, then you'll love these buckwheat muffins. Made with nutrient-dense buckwheat flour, these muffins are not only gluten-free, but they're also packed with fiber, protein, and essential minerals. They're also vegan-friendly, meaning they're free from any animal products or by-products. I find many buckwheat flour recipes in many Melbourne coffee shops to cater for those who want gluten free recipes due to health issues. This makes me happy too as some of it can be made vegan, like buckwheat pancakes and buckwheat banana bread.

    Gluten free banana muffins are a great way to use overripe bananas too which otherwise go waste. These muffins are great because they get sweetness majorly from banana.I love using millets for baking as it has better nutritional value to whole grains like whole wheat flour and plain flour.Initially you may find they have an earthy taste and so you may want to add more vanilla extract to the cake.Like this the other millet recipes include ragi cookies, lauki thepla, buckwheat cutlets, falhari pizza, Juar(sorghum) flatbread ,sama pudding and falhari dahi papdi.

    Indian upvas recipes and detox

    I love upvas recipes. Most food recipes for fasting are a delicious mix of gluten free vegetarian and vegan world. It is a whole new cuisine altogether. I have been fasting for many years now. It gives a break to both my tummy and soul from all the mish mash we keep feed the body and mind. Instead of feeling down and out, you end up feeling rejuvenated. Basically, you have to balance the diet on a fasting day. Eating fruits, consuming milk and staying off extra spicy food will help restore the balance in the body. That doesn't mean you cannot have good food! Of course you can.Easy vrat recipes help you restore and cleanse.

    Top tip

    • Grind 100 grams of flaxseeds and chia seeds in a grinder and store it in a glass bottle. This will help expedite baking when you want to make flax egg or chia egg.
    • Over ripe bananas and neutral oil like sunflower oil are best suited for this recipe. However, you may use coconut oil or olive oil as per your taste. If you find them stronger in taste, you may add a teaspoon cinnamon powder or vanilla extract to the above recipe.
    • Mashed banana can also be replaced by cup of unsweetened applesauce 

    Variations and substitutions

    • You can make add some extra chocolate chips or cacao nibs to this above recipe if you do not have seeds at home. During falahar and Navratri fasting, chocolate is not allowed.
    • Make it vegan by substituting milk with almond milk or oat milk. (if not eating during fasting).
    • Make small muffins or oversized cupcakes as per your choice. I feel mini muffins work great for school lunch boxes. They can be baked over the weekend and are great for afternoon tea break at school. Using buckwheat in sweet treats make it healthier than all purpose flour.

    Storage

    Store these simple buckwheat banana muffins in an air-tight container at room temperature.
