SUGAR FREE FLAX SEED MEAL "YOUR CHOICE" MUFFINS



Sugar Free Flax Seed Meal

I developed this recipe out of a need for a portable, fast, sugar-free, healthy breakfast. The recipe is very adaptable; these are quickly made in the food processor and are delicious in the morning with nut butter or cream cheese Note: If you use soy flour, flax seed meal and low carb mix and omit the fruit, these are much lower in carb count than the analysis indicates.

Categories     Breads

Time 35m

Yield 12 large muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (1 lb) can pumpkin (not pie mix) or 1 1/2 cups shredded fresh zucchini
2 seedless tangerines (if you omit the tangerines or oranges, omit 1/2 cup of the soy flour, optional) (optional) or 1 large seedless orange, with peel, cut into 8 pieces (if you omit the tangerines or oranges, omit 1/2 cup of the soy flour) (optional)
4 extra large eggs (or 5 large)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup Splenda granular (or the equivalent in stevia powder)
1 cup soy flour
1 cup flax seed meal
1/2 cup wheat gluten
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
2 teaspoons grated dried ginger (2 fingers) or 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger (2 fingers)
chopped nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease 12-cup muffin tin or spray with non-stick spray.
  • In a food processor, puree eggs, oil and pumpkin or zucchini.
  • Add optional ingredients if desired: 2 seedless tangerines or one seedless orange, with the peel.
  • Add spices of choice.
  • Add Splenda or Stevia powder, salt, baking powder and mix well.
  • Add flax seed meal, flours and pulse until just mixed.
  • Divide into 12 muffin cups and bake 25-30 minutes.
  • Note: When I make these I use 1 cup soy flour, 1/2 cup wheat gluten, 1/2 cup CarbQuick baking mix. If you omit the tangerine/orange ingredient, reduce the flours by 1/2 cup.
  • You may add nuts of choice, unsweetened coconut flakes.
  • You may make these with bananas or apples, but that will increase the carbohydrate count.
  • If you make these with zucchini, you may make chocolate muffins by substituting the wheat gluten with 1/2 cup dark, unsweetened cocoa powder.

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 25m

Yield 10 muffins, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup canola oil, plus
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup sugar-free syrup (I use sugar-free maple)
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 cup ground flax seeds (flaxmeal)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Beat together eggs, oil, syrup, water and vanilla. Set aside.
  • In small bowl, combine flaxmeal, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
  • Slowly stir dry ingredients into egg mixture. Let stand 5 minutes.
  • Spoon batter into 10 well-greased muffin tins.
  • Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes or until muffins are lightly browned and seem set to the touch.
  • Remove from muffin pan immediately and allow to cook on rack.
  • Store in refrigerator. (Can be frozen if desired.).

Tips:

  • Freshly ground flaxseed meal ensures maximum nutritional value and muffin quality. Grind whole flaxseeds in a coffee grinder or high-powered blender just before using.
  • Add flaxseed meal to your favorite muffin recipes as a nutritious boost. It's a great way to increase fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and other essential nutrients.
  • Flaxseed meal absorbs liquid, so you may need to adjust the amount of liquid in your muffin recipe. Start with the amount specified in the recipe and add more as needed to achieve a smooth, pourable batter.
  • Flaxseed meal can be used as an egg replacer in muffins. Mix 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal with 3 tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5 minutes to form a gel. Use this gel in place of one egg in your muffin recipe.
  • Flaxseed meal muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze flaxseed meal muffins for up to 2 months. Thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for a few hours before serving.

Conclusion:

Flaxseed meal muffins are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day or enjoy as a snack. They are easy to make and can be customized with your favorite ingredients. With their high fiber, omega-3 fatty acid, and antioxidant content, flaxseed meal muffins are a healthy addition to any diet.
