Re: flaxseed 1 minute muffin

I make mine a little differently to Atkinsgal's version, as I use mine as a bread.

1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
2 tablespoon cold water
1 large egg
1/4 cup ground linseed (flax)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

I put mine in a 3-4" wide microwave dish and cook it for about 3 minutes.

I sometimes slice it into teeny slices and make mini finger-sandwiches or horizontally cut in 3 rounds and toast one on both sides then butter to pop a poached egg on.

One whole one split and toasted makes a very substantial burger bun!

I've made the revolution rolls in the oven but wasn't crazy about them. I will try making these so I have something to spread my hummus on.

Re: flaxseed 1 minute muffin

Today I chopped up four strawberries and sprinkle the packet of Splenda on them. Then set aside for about twenty minutes.

I also used cream cheese instead of the butter, but it came straight from the fridge so it was harder to mix then the soft butter I normally use.

After combining all of the ingredients, I added the strawberries. Had to cook it another thirty seconds and it still was a bit runny. Gonna have to play with this recipe, but I can see the potential.

you can cut back on the liquids to allow for the berry juice

you can leave it out and use other herbs or spices to make your muffin savory like rosemary, garlic or onion powder. you could add nutmeg instead or ginger. whatever you want. I've don taco spice flavored flax muffins to go with my chilli instead of cornbread when I wasn't to rung 9 yet. if you go savory take the splenda out too

Since I am the only person on the planet that does not have a micro wave.. does anyone know if these muffins can be baked in the oven...?? and if so how long and at what temp??

Re: flaxseed 1 minute muffin

you can bake flax muffins in the oven but not in the coffee mug.

I bake mine in the oven in mass for 15-20 min at 325 in regular muffin pans.

Re: flaxseed 1 minute muffin

and you could use this recipe to "fry" them in a skillet with a lid on low to med heat and get something like a hoe cake or add about 1/4 cup water and make pancakes.

you need to stir the batter and let sit for about 2 min to allow the flax to react though

Yes, lately I have been adding ginger... it really does make it taste like gingerbread.

Oddly enough, adding cocoa powder to it doesn't make it taste chocolately, though. I've tried it with both regular unsweetened cocoa powder and dark chocolate cocoa powder, and while it does turn it a beautiful dark brown like chocolate cake, it didn't change the taste to chocolate whatsoever. What's up with that?

I've also heard of members adding pumpkin to it... haven't tried that one, yet.

What liquid??? I figured I'd another tablespoon of ground flax seed.

Flax should be stored in the freezer, or if you use if frequently, in the refrigerator, especially if it's already been opened.

The oils in it can go rancid.
