Simple Ayurvedic muffins
Makes 8-12 pieces
Preparation time: 40 minutes
Augmenting (and a little extractive)
You'll need
2 cups barley flour
2 cups brown rice flour
1 tsp. mineral salt
1/2 tsp. cardamom
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
¼ cup chopped pecans or macadamia nuts
Rose water or plain water
3 tbsp. coconut oil or ghee
Here's how
Mix flour and salt together and stir in chopped nuts. Add rose water and coconut oil or ghee. The batter should be moist, so increase the liquid as needed and mix thoroughly.
Spoon the batter into mounds on a stainless steel cookie sheet or glass baking dish. Handle the dough as little as possible. The shape may be irregular, but it’s okay – they will still taste delicious.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
