Cinnamon Dusted Einkorn Blueberry Muffins

Einkorn flour makes flavorful, delicious muffins and in this recipe, we have cut back a bit on the butter and sugar so you can enjoy a healthy breakfast treat made with ancient einkorn wheat.

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. In a large mixing bowl with a blender or in a standing mixer, beat the eggs on medium speed until foamy for 2 minutes.
3. Add ½ cups sugar and continue to beat on medium for 30 seconds until creamy.
4. Add the buttermilk and beat for 30 seconds.
5. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt together.
6. Add the blueberries to a third bowl and coat with a few tablespoons of the flour.
7. Now, gently fold in the flour to the egg mixture with a stiff spatula until smooth.
8. Fold in melted butter.
9. Add the blueberries and continue to mix very gently until all the ingredients are incorporated, but try not to break open the blueberries or the batter will be colored blue.
10. For oversized muffins, fill 6 muffin cups with ½ cup of batter. For smaller muffins, use ¼ cup of batter.
11. Mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar with the cinnamon and dust the tops of the muffins before baking.
12. Bake for 30 minutes for large muffins, and about 20 minutes for smaller.

We have cut back on the quantity of sugar and butter in this recipe, for a lighter muffin. Give it a try as is, we think its perfect, but you can also as much as double the sugar and butter content to you liking.
