Double Chocolate Buckwheat Muffins (Vegan + Gluten-free)

Double Chocolate Buckwheat Muffins (Vegan + Gluten-free)I’m on a buckwheat flour kick at the moment. I’d had a bag of it in my pantry for a while and figured I had better get round to using it before it goes out of date.

Well, I have been missing out all this time. I love baking with this flour!

Admittedly, the buckwheat does have a strong flavour that tends to blend better with more earthy flavours (such as chocolate) and doesn’t taste like your typical white wheat flour in any respect. But it’s not a bad thing. 

Double Chocolate Buckwheat Muffins (Vegan + Gluten-free)Do you bake with buckwheat flour? What sort of recipes do you like to use it in? 

I also have some whole buckwheat which I’ve heard makes fantastic risottos, so stay tuned for that!

These muffins are:

  • Dairy-free & eggless
  • Vegan
  • Gluten-free
  • Free-from refined sugars
  • Soy-free
  • Kid-friendly
  • Freezer-friendly

    Hey! They look really yummy. Got one question though... the boiled water must to be hot or cold? :)

    I couldn't resist this recipe despite having to try a few subs which hopefully haven't ruined them: besan for almond flour, oilive oil for coconut oil, softened blended dates for sweetness and cacao nibs, pepitas and currants instead of choc chips, balsamic instead of ACV. The batter turned out a thick chocolate mousse kind of texture. Counting the minutes : )

    The first reason to try is they are engless and second is they look tasty, and third is my niece caught me reading this recipe and getting stubborn to make the muffins now. And I am going to use olive oil :)

    These are delicious! Even though I tweaked the recipe so much that they didn’t rise, they taste phenomenal! Thanks for the recipe Aimee.

    Hi! This looks so yummy and I cannot wait to make it. Do you add the apple cider vinegar with the wet ingredients? Thanks!

      Hi Amanda, I hope you enjoy them! Yes, add it in with the wet ingredients. It will interact with the rising agents to add more air to the batter.

      Thank you for the recipe. It is the most fluffy vegan cake I have made. I use chia seed meal to replace arrowroot starch, and replace syrup using amazake. The end result is soft and fluffy cake but not sweet enough..next time will try rice syrup or date paste. Thank you
