Hamburger Buns with Ancient Grains
(Einkorn, Emmer, Spelt or Kamut)
We’ve always eaten 80% clean at our house. When we are home, we make it from scratch. Very lately I’ve been playing with Paleo, and other very, VERY clean recipes. We are also branching out into using more Emmer and Einkorn.
If you’ve been here awhile, you know that up until know we use all spelt or kamut flour in breads here at our house. But I have to tell you– both Einkorn and Emmer are DELICIOUS!! They have wonderful nutty flavors and make fabulous breads.
My favorite way to use these flours is in a mix. Personally, I grind my flour fresh, so I will grind a cup each of these flours all together to use in buns and breads.
So If you’re itching to make homemade hamburger buns with AMAZING nutty flavor and texture for the coming BBQ season— try a batch of these!
NOTE: This dough makes a great quick pizza dough…although as a dough lover, I prefer the tiniest big of yeast and a 12-24 hour rise on pizza dough for that FABULOUS developed flavor.

Honey Einkorn or Spelt Cornbread Recipe
by Kayla Howard
Yummm!!! It has turned full on fall here with cooler days and downright cold nights. We are keeping a fire going most of the time and pulling out the sweaters that had been shoved to the back of the dresser. In fact, it’s perfect weather for big pots of chili and delicious cornbread.
Unfortunately, chili isn’t something I have yet mastered. Yesterday I made a pot that was pretty good–even if I do say so myself. But it was mostly due to the can of salsa that I added. Even if I’m not great at making chili, I have found a yummy cornbread recipe that is more of a “whole” food.
What do I mean by “Whole food”? Simply that it has whole, or “God-Made” ingredients in it. It does not have a lot of sugar or white flour. It truly tastes fabulous!
Pull out your aprons and let’s do some baking today!
Kayla’s Butter & Honey Cornbread
1 C. Fresh Ground Cornmeal (mine is more like flour)
1 C. Fresh Ground Spelt Flour or Einkorn Flour
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. Baking soda
1 tsp. Sea Salt
1/2 Cup Butter Melted
1/2 Cup Honey
2 lg. Eggs
1 1/4 C. Buttermilk
Preheat oven to 375 and butter a large cast iron pan. In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients until smooth and well combined. Make a well in the center and add the remaining ingredients then stir to incorporate. Stir gently so you don’t over mix, but make sure all is blended together. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 20 minutes. Serve warm with more butter and honey!
Note: If you don’t have a grain grinder, you may use yellow cornmeal and other flour of choice in place of the cornflour and spelt. The spelt flour does add a wonderful nutty flavor!
