My super cute buckwheat flour cupcakes are moist nutty and a surprise of sweetness with every bite. Buckwheat flour is naturally gluten-free. This cupcake recipe was inspired by the traditional northern Italian cake, called Torta di Granosaraceno (Buckwheat Cake). I first tasted this moist buckwheat cake when I was holidaying in the South Tyrol area of Italy. We walked up a small mountain and the restaurant (known as Hoff's) at the top had this gluten-free cake on their menu.

Being a lover of buckwheat and nutty style cakes this was a cake I thought I would enjoy. After the first bite, it was perfectly moist, nutty, not over the top with sweetness or icing. Traditionally baked in a round tin and cut through the centre to add lingonberry jam between the layers. I reimagined this cake to be a buckwheat cupcake recipe with the flavours of the traditional cake but made into fun butterfly cupcakes. In my first attempt to bake this buckwheat flour cake, I followed the traditional shape and adding raspberry jam to the centre as I knew that lingonberry jam would be difficult to buy in the UK. When I wanted to reinvent this recipe and I dreamt up the butterfly idea. I played around with different flavours inside. Dark chocolate spread and orange marmalade was the winner. A little removed from the original idea but it works so well with the flavours in the cake. I don't like cream so we haven't included cream under the butterfly wings.
NB. If you want to make the original larger round cake double the recipe and bake for 40mins in a 23cm springform ring pan.
