These are wholesome: made with maple syrup and the sprouted spelt flour I mentioned recently on my blog.

Date Muffins

1 1/2 cups sprouted spelt flour
1/2 cup maple syrup or agave nectar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 large eggs
2/3 cup yogurt
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 chopped dates
1/2 chopped almonds

Preheat oven to 400˚F.

In a bowl combine the flour, maple syrup (or agave nectar), baking powder, cinnamon, sea salt, and nutmeg.

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, yogurt and butter.

Stir wet mixture into the dry mixture, and whip or beat with a hand mixer briefly until well mixed.

Fold in the almonds and dates.

Fill greased muffin tin cups 2/3 full.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.

Cool for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

Makes 12muffins. Enjoy!
