This recipe is a mouthful, with blueberries and buckwheat and chia you will get lots of flavor and nutrition in one bite. If you have kasha lying around you can grind it to make buckwheat flour, that is what I did. Recipe adapted from anediblemosaic.com

I haven’t tried it but I think almond flour might work, coconut flour is a bit harder to sub
anyone try replacing the whole wheat flour with almond or coconut flour for gluten free and less empty carb?
I have made these so many times and love them.
I cut the sugar by a little more than half the minimum by using Stevia and I also cut the oil a bit. I also double the blueberries…just great!
these muffins look great. I love using chia seeds in baking.
I’ve never used chia seeds but I see lots of recipes with it recently. Have to learn more about them. The muffins look packed with berries, they must be wonderfully moist.
