Yummy Healthy Bran Flax Muffins

Flaxseed Meal Facts.......high in fiber 4 grams per 2TBL serving,

as much fiber as 1 1/2 cups cooked oatmeal. Can help to reduce

LDL the bad cholesterol. You can substitute for shortening or

cooking oil at a ratio of 3 to 1 in baked goods. Example-1-1/2 cups

of flaxseed meal can replace 1/2 cup butter, marg. or oil in a recipe.

Its also full of omega 3s the plant version. But I have heard that

omega levels go down when cooked. You can sprinkle it on oatmeal

after its cooked. Baked foods with flaxseed tend to brown more rapidly.

They were very good and moist, But watch out thats a lot of FIBER.
