Ingredients
1 large egg1 1/2 teaspoons Splenda sugar substitute1 teaspoon cinnamon (or more to taste)2 teaspoons plain fat-free yogurt1/2 teaspoon baking powder3 tablespoons ground flax seeds
Spray a microwave safe ramekin or bowl with cooking spray (or use a muffin liner).
Mix the egg and splenda until well combined (I use a fork), add the yogurt and blend well.
Mix in the ground flaxseed, cinnamon and baking powder until well combined.
Pour in ramekin and microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds (note the ramekin should be no more than half full since these do rise a lot, if it is too small they will overflow).
These taste best served hot.
Other possible mix-ins: vanilla, nuts, fruit

I find that a bit more yogurt makes this recipe lighter in texture and moister. Extra cinnamon tastes great and gives the muffin a nice color.
Flaxseed is great source of fiber that helps to control hunger and weight. This is a really quick and easy way to add it to your routine. - 2/20/13
