It is free of gut irritating grains, wheat and gluten. Most importantly it does not add any sweetener. Kids will benefit from a reduced exposure to sweetener.
This recipe is very similar to Plantain, Blueberry Muffins with Teff and Buckwheat Flour.
Both recipes freeze well and thaw easily. I use them for morning snacks as I describe here, Carrot and Pumpkin Muffins with Pumpkin Flour (grain free).
