Blueberry Muffins





Ingredients:


1/2 cup golden flax seed meal
1/4 cup vanilla whey 
protein powder (Jay Robb or AboutTime)
tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup Truvia
1 large egg
1 tsp 
baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 c unsweetened 
vanilla almond milk or coconut milk
1 cup blueberries

Preparation:


1.  Pre-heat oven 350 F. 
2.  Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl, let stand for 3 minutes. 




3.  Spray a 6 muffin pan with non-stick spray. 
4.  Spoon batter evenly into muffin tins. Bake 25-30 minutes.
5.  Serve with butter and enjoy!


Note: This recipe can easily be doubled.  The original recipe called for rhubarb, but I used blueberries instead.  They kind of ended up sinking to the bottom, so the bottom of the muffin was really wet, almost goupy, while the top of the muffin was drier.  I would say try using a different fruit and see what happens, or just make them without fruit and a little more sweetener!  As I always say, make it your own!  Have fun with it!
If you wait to add in the blueberries until after you've put the batter in the muffin tin, this should keep them from sinking.
