One Minute Flax Muffin (Low Carb, Gluten Free)

Alrighty.. I tried this last night.  First Flax Muffin I've ever had.  The flavor was good.  But the texture!  It felt like I was eating cardboard! Not a desirable texture to say the least. Still, when you cant have bread, this does the trick in a pinch.




1/4 cup flax seed meal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 or 2 packets splenda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 egg
1 teaspoon oil
1 tbsp Sugar Free Hazelnut or Caramel syrup  or Sugar Fee Maple Syrup

(I sometimes add pumpkin puree)

(2.1 Net Carbs)

Directions:
Mix all ingredients in a coffee mug.
Microwave for 1 minute on high.

If using frozen berries, microwave for 1:30 on high.

Smooth on some butter and enjoy!

It will be moist at first, but as the muffin cools it goes away.

*Note, fruit will add more carbs.
