Savoury Muffin
 
My variation of MiaM.

This is not an induction-friendly recipe, but it does make a tasty addition for OWL. :T It can easily be tweaked for induction though.

⅛ cup (2 T) golden flaxseed meal
⅛ cup (2 T) whey protein isolate
½ t baking powder
¼ t onion powder
¼ t garlic powder
1 t butter
1 egg*
½ oz (15 g) grated full-flavoured cheese

*I have an allergy to egg whites, and hubby thinks the original recipe is too eggy anyway, so I use only one egg for two muffins. I find I can just tolerate the ½ egg without getting sick. I make up the volume with chia gel**, and I'm really happy with the results.

**Chia seeds added to water make a gel that can be used in all sorts of ways. I get mine from Superseeds Organics.

That muffin recipe just saved my diet.

I'm only on day 5 of induction, but got home late tonight after parents' evening at my daughter's school, feeling too tired to face cooking or eating much.

Do you know if you can make it in a disposable cup? i'd love to make it at work!

The disposable cup would melt into itself.... it is plastic.... it is NOT made for Microwaves :)

tried it today, was quite enjoyable. My package of flaxmeal states there are 4 carbs, all from fibre in each 2 tblsp!. So I am wondering how that will help me with my regularity. Have been suffering with constipation, so was glad for this recipe. I mixed it in a bowl and sprayed the cup with pam. worked great. could eat this regularly.
thanks Kim, you are a great fount of knowledge

I've made the 1MM with almond flour instead of flax, and put in some oregano/italian seasoning. It was pretty good made in a tupperware container and then sliced in half like bread with salami and mustard, not amazing though.

When we travel I always liked eating egg mcmuffin for breakfast so I decided to make a similar thing with the flaxmeal 1 mm and it was pretty good. I think it would also make a great ham sandwich.

I have never seen flax meal at my stores..just flax seeds? I hope I can find it at a store near me. These sound perfect for my breakfast

Just had one tonight! It was a nice change of texture and flavor! Thank you! I hope the fiber helps! lol.
