Who doesn’t love muffins? Sadly many people who have celiac or a gluten intolerance don’t get to enjoy them very often. A couple ladies in my Bible Study have to avoid gluten and basically everything refined so I made these buckwheat muffins with them mind. Buckwheat is actually a seed not a grain despite it’s misleading name so it doesn’t contain gluten. The mashed zucchini makes these muffins deliciously moist and is a great way to add a little veggies to your day as well. I hope you enjoy these buckwheat zucchini muffins as well!

Is the zucchini cooked first and mashed instead of shredded? I’ve always used shredded raw zucchini in my baking recipes.
I used cooked mashed zucchini because that’s what I had on hand. It also adds extra moister.
Thanks for sharing this! I picked up a lot of buckwheat flour at the grocery outlet this weekend. I had planned on making pancakes, but I think my kids will go for the muffins first.
Muffins! My favorite! I didn’t realize buckwheat was a seed and not a grain. Good stuff-I like baking with buckwheat flour.
Thanks for the recipe. Seems like a great way to use up the massive amounts of zucchini that grows in Tennessee in the summer 🙂
