These muffins are a dream come true; the perfect opportunity to incorporate our Flourist Whole Grain Einkorn Flour into your weekly baking routine. We like to use a 70% Dark Chocolate for the most intense chocolate flavour, but experiment based on your own personal preference.
Banana Pecan Einkorn Muffins
1/2 cup (115g) butter
1 cup (152g) brown sugar
2 eggs
2 ripe bananas
2 cups (276grams) Flourist Whole Grain Einkorn Flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup plain yoghurt
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
2-2.5 cups chocolate chips
1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a muffin tray with paper liners or spray. This recipe makes 12 medium muffins.
Mix the butter and sugar together in a large mixing bowl. Add eggs, one at a time and mix well. In a separate bowl, mash and beat the bananas together, set aside. In a small bowl, combine the yoghurt and the milk. In another bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
Alternate mixing the flour mixture and the yoghurt mixture into the butter and sugar mixture, mixing gently as you go. Fold in the bananas and vanilla. Lastly, mix in the chocolate chips and pecans.
Scoop into the prepared muffin tray and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until brown. Cool before devouring.
Try substituting buttermilk for the yoghurt and milk as a variation. You can also try any of our other whole grain flours in this recipe; our sifted flours will work as well.

Could I use your red fife flour in this recipe?
Thank you Vaughan! Sounds like the bake was a huge success! So glad the recipe is a hit :) .
Made these tonight, used 1/2 cup of sultanas instead of chocolate chips and some candied pecans I’d made for something else. My wife (who doesn’t like muffins generally) loved them, and said these were the best she’d ever tasted. I guess that’s good 🤔… they are really delicious!
I just made these and they are delicious!! Instead of using paper liners, I buttered my muffin tray and dusted with sugar which caramelised nicely on the muffins. Thank you for the recipe!
Hi Barbara! Thank you for your note – that is a great suggestion! Most of our flours will work as substitutes, we will update the post to reflect that! We appreciate your feedback!
It would be great if in your recipes you suggested an alternate flour. Often I don’t have the flour you use. My frig has 4 bags of various types of flour in it. I have made some bread and blueberry muffins since your recent flour delivery and they were wonderful.
