Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cup raisin bran
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon milled flax seed
3 tablespoons water
1/3 cup milk
1 egg
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup margarine
2 apples, peeled and chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine dry ingredients into large bowl. Combine wet ingredients into smaller bowl. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Spoon into greased muffin tins up to the lip of the tin. Bake 15-30 minutes, depending on altitude (the higher the altitude, the longer you'll need to cook them). To keep the ultimate amount of moisture while storing, place the muffins into a ziplock bag immediately after removing them from the oven (while still piping hot). Note: If you don't have flax seed, add another egg and don't add the 3 tablespoons of water. Note: The brown sugar can be substituted with the same amount of maple syrup.

Flax Seed & Muffing Recipes: A Healthier Breakfast

Flax seed bran muffins are a nutritious and easy-to-make breakfast option. Here are some tips for making the most of this recipe: - Use fresh flax seeds. Flax seeds can go ranid quickly, so it's important to use fresh seeds for the best results. You can tell if flax seeds are fresh by their color - they should be a light golden brown. If they're darker or have a greenish tinge, they're probably old and ranid. - Grind the flax seeds. Grinding the flax seeds helps to release their nutrients and make them easier to digest. You can grind flax seeds in a coffee grinder, a food processer, or with a mortar and pestle. - Use a combination of flours. This recipe uses a combination of all-purpose and almond flours. Almond flours add a nutty flavors and helps to make the muffins more moist. You could also use other types of flours, such as oat, coconut, or buckwheat flours. - Don't over-miz the batter. Over-mized batter can result in tough muffins. Stir the batter until it is just combined. If you see a few streaks of flax seeds, that's okay. - Let the muffins cool completely before serving. This allows them to set up and the flavors to meld. You can store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. ###

Conclusion

Flax Seed muffins are a healthy and straightforward breakfast option. They're easy to make, can be made ahead of time, and are perfect for on-the-go. Try experimenting with different types of flours and mix-ins to create your own favorite version of these delicious and nutritious muffins.
