Flax Muffins

Food.com wont let me add my bake mix to the recipe so I have put almond in it's place, but I use my bake mix also published next to this one. I love these muffins I use Da Vinci vanilla sugar free syrup for my sweetener and use 1/3 cup, you can crush about 4 splenda tablets between two spoons and use them, it won't be too sweet if you do that you might want to add some vanilla extract. You can also make them with just almond meal rather than the bake mix. I use xanthan gum as it gives the muffins a nice spring to them. You can freeze them I usually freeze half and keep the other half in the fridge.
