60 Second Flax Muffins
1/4 cup ground flax seed
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp splenda/stevia
1 egg (beaten)
1 tsp butter or coconut oil
Directions
1. Mix together all the dry ingredients.
2. Add butter and egg, continue mixing until batter is moist.
3. Put batter in a good-sized mug, microwave on high for 60 seconds.
4. Remove, allow to cool and enjoy.
Nutrition facts: 290 kcal, 22 g fat (almost 4.5 g Omega 3!), 15 g carbohydrate (11 g fibre!), 12 g protein
With an impressive blend of omega 3 fats, fibre and protein – these muffins pack some serious physique transforming power. But not only are these muffins exceptionally healthy, they taste great and best of all can be whipped up at the drop of a hat.
Imagine that, a muffin you can enjoy totally guilt-free!
Obviously, this is just a base recipe and you could easily add some other ingredients to switch up the flavour/nutrient content. Unsweetened applesauce, mashed banana or canned pumpkin would make these uber moist, whereas raisins, blueberries or chopped nuts would make great additions.
You are really only limited by your imagination. But once you get creative with your meal planning, it’s amazing how easy “healthy eating” becomes to make part of your daily routine.

Great recipe. I only use 1/8 tsp of stevia and find that's enough.
Additions I've tried so far are walnuts & raisins.
I wonder how much pumpkin or apple sauce to use?0 -
