I love flaxseed, which is a terrific source of Omega-3 fatty acids, and has many other health benefits. I wanted to make pumpkin/flaxseed muffins, but only had canned squash, so changed up the recipe, substituting some ingredients for healthier options. Results: a light and tasty muffin that's good for you.
Ingredients:
2 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
2/3 cup ground flax seeds (or subsitute 3 cups regular flour for whole wheat and flaxseed)
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
4 eggs (or 8 egg whites)
1 cup oil
2 cups canned squash
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon allspice
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients. Fill muffins cups 2/3 full. Bake for 20 minutes.
