Low Carb High Fiber Theme And Variations Pumpkin Muffins Food

This is a revision of previous recipes I've posted and I think this recipe's the best, so far. These are moist, healthy, substantial and they're 'total money' with cream cheese or nut butter for a fast breakfast. Note: I use almond milk in these to cut the carb count - the recipe works with any milk or, if you don't need to boost the protein, use water in place of milk. You may also vary the grains/bran/flours to suit your needs, preference, and what you have in your cupboard. If you need to stretch the recipe, you can add more liquid and more bran/grains/flour. This is a very forgiving recipe. For instance: substitute garbanzo flour for the soy flour, oat bran for the wheat bran, whey powder for the flour. Also, the lemon juice/soda helps these fiber-rich muffins rise. Bonus: it takes less time to prepare the batter than it takes for the oven to preheat.

These are easy to prepare, are low carb, moist and delicious. They'd pass for a cupcake with a little frosting, too. The secret is in the finely ground flax seed meal - either grind your own or give the commercially ground meal about ten extra seconds in your blade coffee/spice grinder or blender. Cook's note: if you want to increase the yield on these, add 1/2 cup milk: almond, rice, or soy. And add 1 1/2 cups of bran. When I'm not doing wheat-free, I use wheat bran, but oat bran will do. If you do go the bran route, add 1 tsp baking soda and 1 tsp plain vinegar to the recipe: these puppies will rise better if you do. (thanks for posting a picture, sweetcakes!)

I was looking for a low carb high fiber treat and came up with this one. Cardamom is originally from the east and used to flavour food and for medicinal purposes. It lends a very interesting and distinctive taste to foods. I like it and thought it would be a good addition to these truffles. I ground all my ingredients in my magic bullet and then processed the dough in my Kitchen Aid food processor. You can use either the dark or golden flax seeds in this recipe. This recipe can be doubled, but be aware they are rich, so you might want to make a single batch just to try them first. If you can't find organic then conventional will work just as well, though might not taste as good. You can also use ground carob or ground unsweetened chocolate in place of the cacao nibs if you don't have them.
