Flax Recipes

Low-fat buttermilk and applesauce help lower the fat, and the whole-wheat flour and flax seed add fiber. These healthful muffins freeze well!

A yummy treat - one 93 cal cookie is very satisfying when you crave something sweet and chocolaty!

Melts in your mouth! 2.24 points

These are so moist and chocolatey I can't believe they are so healthy. They are a very filling and a great low carb treat.

I buy pre-ground flax meal, but you can grind your own.

I grind my almonds in a blender by putting only a small handful in at a time and pulsing the blender. Don't run continuously or you'll have almond butter. You can also buy pre-ground almonds.

These muffins came out sooo good! They make a great breakfast, snack or after workout snack.
With 30 grams of Carbs, 4 grams of healthy fat and 5 grams of protein, I call them my "power muffins".
Enjoy!

"I call this "focaccia" because it is baked in that style -- flat on a sheet pan, and then cut up into whatever sized pieces you want. It works for toast, sandwiches, and other bready uses. It is "rough" in texture like heavy whole grain breads. Since it isn't made with wheat, it doesn't have the same kind of grain as wheat breads, but the carb in flax is almost all fiber. Flax is very useful on a low carb diet, as well as being amazingly good for you." This was found Here http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/breads/r/

Who wants cake for breakfast? This chocolaty treat actually boasts a decent amount of fiber and protein to help you start your day off right. Sprinkle with nuts for extra crunch!

Great healthy, filling muffin for breakfast or a snack.

The bakers at King Arthur Flour came up with this super-high-fiber bread. Its nutty whole-grain taste and texture make particularly great sandwiches and toast.

Made in a coffee cup or shallow bowl, these babies are delicious, nutritious, and so fast you will be amazed. Enjoy!

Easy to make, high fiber, and no grains of any kind. Great for a low-carb diet or just a flax fanatic like myself!

My original recipe uses an apple as the base fruit. This one uses a half of a mashed banana! Yum!!

Raisins add sweetness and you can top with nuts to add protein. My twin toddlers love it!

A recipe I got off of the Dr. Oz show.

This recipe is simple to make, and a great way to make a healthy granola bar that isn’t loaded with sugar. Kids and adults alike love these Omega-3 rich granola bars.

A simple European pancake recipe for flat pancakes using simple ingredients and with tons of flax. Possible toppings: syrup, fresh fruit or jam or for a russian twist add sour cream, make batter a bit thinner for crepes and fill with whipped creme and fresh raspberries and top with chocolate syrup. For savory meals fill with cooked veggies and cheese such as asparagus and melted velveta. You can add thinly sliced apples to the batter with a pinch of cinnamon for a variation. Photo: filled with fresh ripe mango and cottage cheese.


Great for any meal of the day.

Made with eggs and ground flax seeds, this delicious pancake is great served with yogurt, pure maple syrup, or peanut butter!

There might be an extra carb from spices?
