Muffins

*update: Christian has eaten 6 of these today!*
Chia-Flax Muffins.
I like fast healthy breakfast. 1 muffin, banana, water and your on your way.
I know it doesn't sound that enticing but try them for yourself, they just taste like regular bran muffins. I made these muffins yesterday for a fast breakfast this week. Christian was asking for one this morning and I thought that was a good thing especially considering how good they are for you. I store these only a few days in the fridge because the flax seed goes rancid quickly.

1 C water
2 TBS flax seed
2 TBS chia seeds
1/4 C coconut oil
1/2 C pure honey
2 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch ginger
pinch cloves
1 C grainmix flour (if you don't have a mixed flour just use whole wheat)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp aluminum free baking powder
1/2 tsp cream of tarter
1/2 tsp real salt
  1. Preheat oven to 350. Blend water and flax seed in blender for 2 minutes
  2. add chia, oil, honey, eggs, and spices pulse very slightly
  3. measure dry ingredients in a separate bowl
  4. pour dry ingredients into blender all at once and stir with fork until incorporated
  5. pour into greased or lined muffin pans
  6. bake 350 for 20 minutes
Yields 12-16 muffins.
