Ingredients
-
2 cups flax meal- packed slightly (I grind my own in a coffee mill)
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons stevia
4 eggs beaten
1/4-1/2 cup water (if you are adding the bananas you may need less water than the full 1/2 cup)
1/3 cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
1/2 cup mashed banana (optional)
dash of banana extract (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Directions
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. In a medium bowl combine the flax meal, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar and salt
3. Make a well in the dry mix and add in the beaten eggs, water and olive oil or melted coconut oil
4. Stir together the wet and dry ingredients- all the other recipes say to let the batter sit for 2-3 minutes to thicken- I don’t really find this necessary
5. Pour the batter into a greased muffin pan
6. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes until firm in the middle- don’t overbake
7. Cool on your counter and then enjoy!

A number of vegan egg substitutes (banana, flaxseed, olive oil) are already in the recipe, so I skipped the eggs, used 3 small overripe bananas, added 2tbsp molasses, used one third of the stevia, half the oil, and needed no water. Doubled the cinnamon, added ginger & nutmeg. Made as mini muffins. - 2/27/19

What kind of stevia are you using? There is a big difference between liquid stevia, pure stevia powder, ground stevia leaf and stevia/erythritol blends. - 7/3/13

I am using Stevia that is powdered. It comes in a big bag and can be found at walmart or Aldi. Or all food stores I imagine.
