Flax Muffins - Bernstein - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 eggs
    1/4 cup olive oil (or coconut oil)
    2 tablespoons oil
    1/4 cup artificial sweetener (like Davinci's Vanilla) or 1/4 cup water with artificial sweetener
    2 tablespoons water
    1 tablespoon vanilla
    1 cup flax seed meal
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    2 tablespoons cinnamon
Preparation
    In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a fork. With fork or spoon, beat in oil, syrup, water and vanilla.
    In a small bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients, then stir into egg mixture.
    Let stand 5 minutes.
    Spoon into 12 well-greased MINI muffin tins (without papers) OR in a regular muffin pan but only fill half full.
    Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes, or until they are lightly browned. (Some folks find they need 20-25 minutes).
    Hints/Tips:.
    When taking for lunch, put in ziplock bag with a squirt of Davinci flavoring in it. By lunchtime, it will have soaked it up and made a moist, flavorful muffin.
    Substitute the water for pancake syrup for a maple flavor.
    Chocolate version: use DaVinci's sugar-free chocolate and substitute 4 T. cocoa powder for the cinnamon. Add chopped walnuts, if desired.
    Peanut Butter icing (great over chocolate version): 2 T peanut butter, 2 T butter, some sweetener - heat in pot and drizzle over.
    Banana Nut version: use DaVinci's banana syrup and add some walnuts.
    All sweet versions are great with whipped half-and-half or cream cheese.
    Savory version: Omit sweetener and add finaly chopped onion, grated cheese, bacon, whatever.
