Dobie's Flax Seed Muffins (WCHLD)
1/2 cup flax seeds (grind in coffee mill) 4.921 carbs (-fiber)
1/4 cup protein powder (if using soy, check label) 0
2 TBL oil (use something healthy...I use grapeseed)
1/4 cup splenda (can substitute other sweetner, but splenda is the
best)
1 beaten egg .61
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp banana extract (or flavor of choice)
1/4 tsp salt substitute (gives added potassium)
1 oz chopped nuts (optional, if used, add carbs)
1/2 cup water
Mix the above, let sit for a few minutes to thicken if necessary. Spoon
into 6 non-stick (I spray with pam) muffin tins. Bake 25-30 minutes at
350 degrees. They are just under 1 carb each. Remember flax seeds are also
the highest source of omega oils (higher than fish) which is touted for
preventing certain cancers and lowering cholesterol.
