I was asked by Betsy to post this recipe.... I LOVE making these...

Banana Nut Flax Muffins
==========================

2 cups milled (ground) flax (Personally I prefer the Golden Flax)
1 cup nuts (I use walnuts) *Optional if on induction
1/2 cup granulated splenda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

1 tbl banana extract (check for sugar content)
1/2 cup davinci banana syrup
1/3 cooking oil (personally I use Extra Virgin Coconut Oil)
4 eggs beaten

bake 350 for 15 minutes
Makes 12 muffins. Tastes very similar to real
banana nut muffins


Enjoy.....

Yep, these are the best!! I used 1 cup flax and 3/4 cup coconut flour, Sweetzfree instead of granular, and 1/2 cup DV coconut syrup. They freeze well, too!! Thanks for posting it, T-Man!!

Bumping this up again so it doesn't get lost. Anyone tried these yet besides me?! I think I'm addicted.....just got my SF Banana DV syrup, too!! (Although they were really good with coconut too!)

Just made these the other day and I absolutely love them! I added just a tad more Splenda and also some dried cranberries and I have one every morning. Definitely delicious. I left out the banana flavor, didn't have any, and didn't want to add real banana, but I may leave out the cranberries next time and use banana. We'll see. Definitely worth the 20 minutes start to finish though!

OK, someone at work gave me a boatload of zucchini today - T-man, I am going to use this recipe tomake Z-muffins!! I'll let ya know how they turn out!!

Okay folks... I entered this into MasterCook and got all the values for the muffins.... 2 Net Carbs per mini muffin

1/3 cup - Cooking oil (EPEVCO)

So that would mean one of the 12 muffins is 4 net carbs. Cool. I bought some blueberry da vinci syrup. Blueberry muffins once the ones I already made are gone!!!

I made blueberry! Even better than the ones I made before

Using Tim's recipe with a couple tweaks for coconut:

Coconut Nut Flax Muffins
==========================

2 cups milled (ground) flax (Personally I prefer the Golden Flax)
1 cup nuts (I use walnuts) *Optional if on induction
1/2 cup granulated splenda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

1 tbls coconut extract (check for sugar content)
3/4 - 1 cup coconut milk(if I add the coconut that is optional I add 1 cup)
1/3 cooking oil
4 eggs beaten
*optional*
1/4 cup coconut powder or (unsweetened coconut)
Bake at 400 for about 20 minutes.

Tim didnt you say these are even better if you let the batter sit a few minutes?

I can never eat my muffins fast enough and they end up spoiling

Yes... very true... through a mistake of mine (forgot to add the liquid splenda after I had put them into muffin cups, so I poured them back into the bowl and added the liquid splenda and re mixed) I founf out if u let the batter sit 20 minutes after the first mix and then mix again and then cup the muffins are much fluffier....

Shorty.... do you use EVCO for your oil? Just curious.

I finally ordered SF banana syrup to make these. Hopefully it'll get here tomorrow.

No Thats why I omited it from your recipe when i reposted , until you posted that I have never heard of it, but I will definately be looking for it...is it in the grocery stores? Or an online purchased product?

LStump, they freeze great!
