BANANA AND FLAX SEED MUFFINS
Family favorite. They don't last long. Taste great from the oven. I like to freeze leftovers the same day. Great for breakfast or lunch pails. Freeze ripe bananas until you're ready to do some baking.

FLAX SEED MUFFINS
I got this recipe from a flax seed site and it is one I make often. The recipe says it makes 12 muffins, but because it has so much flax in it, I make 18. I have only made this with freshly ground flax seed as that is all I use. This has a very nutty flavor and is great with dried fruit. Please Note: Only eat one a day!!!! THESE ARE SUPER POTENT!!!

SUGAR FREE FLAX SEED MEAL "YOUR CHOICE" MUFFINS
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.

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.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.

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.
