While reading an article about the benefits of flax seeds, I came across this, "Women who are at high risk for breast cancer or who have breast cancer benefit from eating flax seeds regularly."
Ok, as a breast cancer survivor of 1 year, that got my attention. For the rest of you, ground flax and flax oil are excellent....so make these muffins!
Flax seed muffins:
One and half cups whole wheat flour
One and a half cups ground flax meal
1 TB baking powder
one half tsp nutmeg
one half tsp ginger
two tsp cinnamon
one and a half cups milk
one half cup honey
2 eggs beaten
one half or so cups raisins
1 cup or so grated carrots
Whisk dry ingredients together, beat wet ingredients together, mix both together the dry and wet ingredients, then fold in the remaining items.
Bake at 350 degrees in muffin tins lined with paper, about 25 minutes
