Bran Flax Muffins

Submitted by Chef #852954

"A hearty muffin recipe from the back of Bob's Red Mill Ground Flax Seed. I have modified the recipe to remove the nuts and raisins, but feel free to add them back in. You can add up to 2 cups of almost anything moderately dry without altering the recipe."

These muffins are the best muffins I have ever made; fabulous! I added sliced almonds and raisins as well as wheat germ.

This is an excellent recipe for low fat and healthy muffins. It is very adaptable and always turns out. I add a ripe banana or two which helps them to rise and makes them more moist. I also have added different kinds of nuts, cranberries, dates and even strawberries/raspberries. I have made these muffins many times and they are always a big hit in my family.
