These Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat blueberry muffins sport two of the best superfoods ever!
Muffins have been a passion of mine for decades, and especially homemade organic blueberry muffins made from scratch. In fact nothing is more shamelessly delicious than a rich serving of power-packed muffins with two top superfoods onboard.
The first, Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat (HTB), is incredibly rich. According to Dr. Bland of Big Bold Health it’s “the most immuneoactive, nutrient-dense plant yet discovered.” It rocks bioactive compounds, prebiotics, probiotics, vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber, and more.
And we all know how healthy blueberries are, right? They’re one of the most nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich fruits.

This recipe is organic, vegan, and gluten-free.
Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat Blueberry Muffins
Here are some legit reasons to eat boatloads of blueberries:
- Boosts heart, gut, and brain-health.
- Supports eye health.
- Curbs heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular disease.
- Improves cholesterol and insulin sensitivity.
- Packs anthocyanins—major antioxidants.
The good news is heat doesn’t crush all the nutrients in blueberries like in a lot of cooked foods, though you don’t want to mix blueberries with bananas. Studies show the combo can reduce nutrient-absorption by up to 84%. You can learn more about that here.

And by the way, sprouted flours are WAY more nutritious than unsprouted. You can also add some HTB sprout powder to your blends.🌱
Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat Blueberry Muffins Recipe
Himlayan Tartary Buckwheat rocks with tons of gluten-free flours. I typically dilute it a bit because it has a powerful taste.
It’s also worth noting that grinding your own sprouted grains with an electric grain mill is the best return on investment (ROI). More bang for your buck financially and for your health.
