BANANA AND FLAX SEED MUFFINS

Family favorite. They don't last long. Taste great from the oven. I like to freeze leftovers the same day. Great for breakfast or lunch pails. Freeze ripe bananas until you're ready to do some baking.

FLAX SEED MUFFINS

Flax Seed Muffins image

I got this recipe from a flax seed site and it is one I make often. The recipe says it makes 12 muffins, but because it has so much flax in it, I make 18. I have only made this with freshly ground flax seed as that is all I use. This has a very nutty flavor and is great with dried fruit. Please Note: Only eat one a day!!!! THESE ARE SUPER POTENT!!!
