Thank You 4 the 1-minute Muffin Recipe! - Page 7

scorpgc · 07-31-2008, 01:41 PM

Like Lisabinil, I use butter. I also use Olive Oil...so for the savory, I use oil but the sweet I use butter (1 tbsp) and they are never dry, always moist. Perhaps try nuking it for 50 seconds? If I nuke mine for 1 full minute, it will be a tad firmer and more dry, so I usually cook mine a little shorter than a full minute.

I use 1/2 almond flour and 1/2 flax for breakfast sandwiches (egg / ham / cheese). And for the "dessert" version, use almond flour and stick a sf chocolate (Dove) in the center, while it cooks. Yum!!!

I like to use the savory recipe for meatball sandwiches, I just double the recipe and put it in a loaf pan to microwave. When it's done, I cut the "loaf" in half, and then slice each half in half. Makes two good-sized sandwich buns / bread.

lisabinil · 07-31-2008, 01:49 PM

It should be a little shiny and a tad bit wet looking after you are done nuking it-it shouldn't look dried out. It sets up a bit more after nuking.

Mackenzie · 08-01-2008, 01:16 PM

I just tried your original recipe Gary and it is so easy and good. I put some butter and sugar free jam on it. Yummo! I can't wait to try the savory one. Do these hold up well for hamburger buns?

scorpgc · 08-01-2008, 02:22 PM

Hey Mackenzie-

Aren't they good? Regretfully, I'm not the original but did some experimenting with lisabinil and others. There's a lot of good info here in the thread.

Yes I think it holds up great to buns. I have a post for a meatball sandwich I used these for and they were the BOMB! Here's the link. Heck if they hold up to a meatball sammie, they'll hold up to a burger!

Felt it was time for a *BUMP*

junkfoodmonkey · 08-08-2008, 04:38 AM

Always worth bumping. Lately I've done these no spice and unsweetened and cooked in a little round tub to make a perfect "english muffin" to toast and make a "One Minute McMuffin" with.

ragtopwife · 08-08-2008, 08:50 AM

Mmmm... english muffins.... yum, eggs benedict! I was thinking a Tbsp or so of yogurt may give it a better english muffin taste and texture.... hmm I think I will try that this weekend for family breakfast....

PS...I live in NE Lincs (not sure if location matters as to which stores carry it)

iamcrazy · 08-13-2008, 02:25 PM

these look wonderful. Gonna have to try them very soon!!

iamcrazy · 08-13-2008, 07:03 PM

WHY have i never tried them before... i just made it and AMAZING!!! totally felt "non legal" YUM!!

BABSY · 08-14-2008, 09:47 AM

I never use any butter or oil when I make mine

vli1127 · 08-15-2008, 08:43 AM

I tried the Chocolate Lava cake last night and LOVED it. That is going to be my birthday cake in November. My 8 yr old son really liked it too so we split it.

This morning I substituted raspberry SF syrup for the chocolate syrup and left out the cocoa. I also used 1 T of almond flour with 3 T of flax meal. I topped it with my own raspberry flavored cream cheese. I took 1 T of cream cheese and mixed in 1 tsp of SF raspberry jam and spread that over the top. YUMMY!!!!

I'm in North Carolina and I found a big box of flax seed at Walmart in the flour section. (Super Walmart that is.) And also a place called Harris Teeter (one of those big mega grocery stores). But you can also order it online if you want to go that route.

I LOVE this little muffin and plan on increasing the recipe and making in a loaf pan. This is a low-carb lifesaver!!!!

I never thought to increase the recipe and put it in a loaf pan, brilliant! I can't wait to try this!!

He posted on 8/1 - maybe he's on vacation.

KathyCan · 08-25-2008, 12:09 PM

I LOVE this recipe. Wish I'd had it when I first started locarbing. I've played around with it using different flavored extracts but I think the one that surprised me most was leaving out the cinnamon and splenda and substituting poultry seasoning and a bit of salt. I cubed the muffin while still warm and used it for stuffing with some slices of turkey breast and a little gravy. It's so moist it really tastes like STUFFING! I hardly got to eat any of it because the whole family wanted to try it. Big thumbs up all around.

I am so excited to try this!

I posted this recipe a long while back lol. I make a choc OMM with cocoa powder and a bit of vanilla extract then b4 I nuke it I float a square of 85% Lindt Dark Chocolate in it. Push the square down in the center a bit with your finger. It is quite tasty and hits the chocolate spot.

decodiana · 08-26-2008, 03:29 PM

Thanks, lisabinil.

How much cocoa did you use and did you use all golden flax or combine it with almond flour?

lisabinil · 08-26-2008, 06:48 PM

I use all golden organic flax=1/4 cup. I just do the cocoa powder to taste-some days I like it darker.

Hi Diana...
Here are the ''Lava'' notes from that post (I'd saved them):
To make the Lava Cake, substitute the cinnamon with 2 Tsp cocoa. Add more Splenda (double +) or use Davinci SF syrup (I like Chocolate Macadamia Nut). After mixing, before microwaving insert 1 square of 85% Lindt Chocolate in the center...this is fantastic.

I usually slice it down the middle, top with some whipped cream & serve while warm. DH & I share one muffin. Try it, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at just how good this is.

Hope this helps...

decodiana · 08-27-2008, 04:07 PM

Gonna try this for sure. Thanks!

speedy · 08-27-2008, 09:37 PM

lol I wrote the recipe down wrong for the chocolate muffin .....and made it without the flax

....just the egg , vanilla , stevia , heavy cream & butter and it was real good it's funny because I thought it was missing something but tried it anyway and it turned out good I ate it .I make the 1 minute muffins all the time with lemon extract & poppy seeds if you double the recipe you can get 6 muffins out of it... wow Decodiana what a beautiful cat he looks alot like mine in my pic but Speedy has an orange nose
