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.

1-1/2 c wheat flour
3/4 c flaxseed Meal
3/4 c Oat Bran
1c brown sugar (I used 1/2 cup honey and it was fine)
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 1/2 c Carrots shredded
2 Apples shredded
1/2 raisins or crasins
1 cup chopped nuts
3/4 c milk
2 eggs beaten
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix together flour, flaxseed, bran, soda, b. powder, salt and cinnamon.
Stir in carrots, apples, raisins, nuts and honey. Combine milk, eggs,
and vanilla. Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir until
moistened. DO NOT OVER MIX. Fill sprayed muffin tins 3/4 full
Bake 350* for 15-20 minutes watch them. makes about 20
