SOAKED SPELT ENGISH MUFFINS
Yum. Healthy spelt based english muffins. I found this recipe on the blog Taste is Trump: http://goodlookingcook.blogspot.com/2011/01/soaked-english-muffins.html English muffins are in the same category as most bread products. Like pitas and tortillas, it is impossible to find a store bought variety made with healthful ingredients, properly prepared that tastes good. These are great to just eat with butter and honey, or make little sandwiches with.

SPELT MUFFINS
Tasty and healthful. They're very moist and will change your opinion about spelt! I often change the fruit I add to this recipe, depending upon what I have. Shredded carrot and raisin is a great combo, or crystalized ginger and pear, or apple walnut, etc. Recipe works well without the banana, too.

SOAKED GRAIN MUFFINS OR QUICK BREAD
This recipe is from Sue Gregg. I'm learning a little about soaking grains and beans to bring out their nutritionally quality and to cut the phytates. You may cut the recipe in half if you don't have a large enough blender (like a Vitamix). See add-ins in the directions. I used olive oil for the coconut and kefir and it worked fine.

Tips:
- Make sure to soak the spelt berries overnight. This will help to soften them and make them easier to digest. You can also use quick-cooking spelt berries, which do not need to be soaked.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the muffins tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
- If you want a crispy crust, brush the tops of the muffins with melted butter before baking.
- Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the muffins for up to 2 months.
