Ingredients

▢ 2 cups ground flaxseed
▢ 1 cup granulated sweetener (organic cane sugar or a granulated sugar substitute with a 1:1 sugar ratio may be used)
▢ 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
▢ 1 tablespoon gluten-free baking powder (regular baking powder may be used)
▢ 5 large eggs
▢ 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
▢ ½ cup water
▢ ½ cup coconut oil (melted but not hot)
▢ ¼ teaspoon fine salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (325 ℉ convection). In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flaxseed, sweetener, cinnamon, and baking powder.
In a blender add all of the wet ingredients, including coconut oil. Blend for 30 seconds.
Add the blended wet ingredients to the large bowl of dry ingredients, stirring until just incorporated. Let the batter sit for 5 minutes.
Grease 12 muffins cups or use silicone liners. Fill with approximately ¼ cup of the batter.
Bake for 12 to 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool. Once cool, store in an airtight container in the refriferator for up to one week.

VARIATIONS: Fresh berries or chopped bananas may be added. Use any granulated sugar - regular or substitute as long as it has a 1:1 sugar ratio (results may very slightly as well as sweetness levels). A neutral oil such as avocado or canola oil can be substituted for coconut oil.
TIPS: It's is important to let the batter sit for 5 to 10 minutes so that it can thicken. This recipe can easily be doubled and extra muffins frozen for later.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Eat them all by themselves, or slather on some coconut oil, butter, nut butter, honey, or a favorite jam.
