Buckwheat Banana Muffins

I haven’t posted a while. Tamara was with me at home for two and a half years. And sitting in front of a computer with an active and curious toddler is a privilege.
I admit that I am also very active on Instagram (join me! I promise it will be fun :)) – and it also takes time and resources and somehow my cute littel blog that I started somewhere 8 years ago, in Phoenix, AZ has been pushed aside.
So quick update, for two and a half years I have not consumed white sugar, white flour and any other product that contains gluten or sugar. I still cook and bake “regular” food for Dima and the kids.
But after a lot of diets, and attempts to lose weight, specially  after giving birth, I realized that this is what works for me – so I’m sticking with it 🙂
So I made banana muffins from green buckwheat flour and I finally did an experiment and it turned out well, so I’m sharing it with you 🙂
