Ingredients

  • 1 14 cups buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons liquid honey
  • 1 tablespoon margarine
  • 2 -3 very ripe bananas, mashed
  • 14 cup brown sugar (optional)
  • 2 cups sweet rice flour
  • 12 cup potato starch
  • 12 cup light stoneground buckwheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
  • 1 -2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 14 teaspoon allspice
  • 1 -2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 24 milk chocolate chips
  • 12 teaspoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon egg white
  • 14 teaspoon cinnamon

Method

  • Microwave the buttermilk until almost warm.
  • Add first 8 (or 9, if using brown sugar) ingredients to the bread machine in order given.
  • Set the machine on "dough cycle".
  • 5 minutes into the cycle, add in cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and vanilla.
  • When cycle is complete, remove dough from bread maker and place in a greased mini muffin pan.
  • Make sure not to over-fill, as the dough will rise quite a bit!
  • Place 1 chocolate chip on the top of each muffin.
  • Cover with 2 tea towels and let rise in a warm, sheltered area for 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375* F and bake for 7-8 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • While the muffins are baking, prepare the glaze by melting the butter and cinnamon together in a microwave (about 10 seconds should do the trick).
  • Stir egg whites into glaze mixture.
  • Remove muffins from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
  • While the muffins are still warm (but chocolate chips are set), brush glaze overtop.
  • Enjoy!
