Millet Muffins

I am going to try and go a month without posting any rice recipes. So I probaby won't be posting much this month. :)

These muffins don't have rice; instead they have millet, a weird little grain I picked up at the Cloverdale Country Store (oh, how I miss that place). These muffins and a millet breakfast porridge are the only uses I have found for it, but these muffins themselves are a reason to pick some up. Millet is cheap, and from what I read is easily digestible and non-allergic. Are you rushing out to get some yet?

We had these muffins with split pea soup and they were quite tasty, and also great with scrambled eggs the next morning.

Recipe from The Cheapskate Cook

2 1/4 c whole wheat flour
1 t salt
1 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
1/4 cup millet
1 c buttermilk
1 egg
1/2 c oil
1/2 c honey

Mix dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fill 12 muffin cups and bake at 400* for 15 minutes.
