1 Minute Muffin - Page 16

Determinedtolose · 12-12-2007, 06:35 AM

I don't know if someone asked this question, but how do you get rid of the egg taste and smell from the muffin?

Maeve · 12-12-2007, 06:39 AM

I have never noticed an eggy taste but one thing that I do that is a little different than the original recipe is to add a little vanilla to it. I have yet to make them the savory way...can't get past the nice sweetness of them (cinnamon helps with that, too). But yeah...add some vanilla -- about 1/2 tsp.

Is your muffin too dry? I never have an eggy taste or smell?

Determinedtolose · 12-12-2007, 07:12 AM

Really, too dry? Before or after it's cooked. I'm surprised you have no egg taste or smell. I wonder what I'm doing wrong.
I used the normal recipe, but used almond flour and added Dacvinci's banana sf syrup.
Maybe I'll use some vanilla too and see if that helps.

I use CO and flaxmeal-never dry. Maybe you need to up the fat or nuke less because of the almond meal.

Maeve · 12-12-2007, 07:14 AM

The original recipe uses flaxseed meal. Can you use that? I don't know how they come out with almond flour since I've never used it...

You could still flavor it with your banana stuff...

Maeve · 12-12-2007, 07:16 AM

Yes, Lisabinil...I've used coconut oil before too. Sometimes, I use Smart Balance. When I made them with pumpkin, I didn't use any fat and they still came out delicious (I actually forgot to add the fat). I've forgotten the cinnamon before, too, and they taste good and vanilla-ie.

I love vanilla.

Determinedtolose · 12-12-2007, 08:15 AM

I made them both ways. I saw a post here sometime ago with the almond flour. I think I need to cook them in less time, it looked like it had moisture in it, so I microwaved it for another 25 sec.

I'll taste the flaxseed one I made and see how that came out. Thanks!

Determinedtolose · 12-12-2007, 08:34 AM

Okay, I just ate a slice of the flaxseed muffin I made this morning, after it was in the refrigerator for an hour and it was really good! No egg taste or smell.

I'm happy!

lisabinil · 12-12-2007, 08:36 AM

That's one thing I've noticed the recipes copied aren't adding from the original-they need to still look a little shiny & wet when you take them out of the microwave and not look dry. The OneMinuteMuffin recipe sees a resurgance with newbies about every 2 months.

Determinedtolose · 12-12-2007, 08:52 AM

Yes, that would help if it is stated in the recipe that the muffin needs to have that look. Because I've been overcooking it, lol!
Thanks for your help!

bprieto · 12-12-2007, 02:03 PM

Marking my spot. (I've only read to pg. 6 of this thread - been keeping up with the Thank you 4 the ...)

Love the variations!

2B Me · 12-12-2007, 06:17 PM

Thanks everyone. This is good info.

Caly1 · 12-15-2007, 04:46 PM

Ahh foey! I just went to the store because I was dying to try these but guess what...I got the seed and I don't have any type of grinder

crap, I might end up endulging in some lc ice cream

Nik · 12-15-2007, 05:15 PM

What surgery?
Do you have a blender? A mortar and pestle? A food processor? A mini-chopper? A meat tenderizer? A pepper grinder? You can improvise!

Luckeee! I want one too! Good for you!

Congrats on the marriage too!

GhettoMama · 12-21-2007, 08:29 PM

so do you melt the butter before you add it?

Missy's Journey · 12-21-2007, 08:37 PM

Hi my Ghetto Sandy!!!

I think alot of people melt the butter in the mug and then mix in the egg first...and other wet ingredients...then add the dry.

I need to experiment w/ these again...my first attempts were not so good. I got banana davincis and lemon just for this purpose...maybe tomorrow morning.

GhettoMama · 12-21-2007, 08:54 PM

I will try this tommorow morning too. It sounds very filling. I got 2 boxes of flax meal given to me today...So it must be meant to be! LOL

nedn2lose · 12-30-2007, 03:44 PM

Hi there Sandy & Missy!

I came looking for this recipe again and to see if this was the thread with the savory "bread" like idea. I made it before and found it held up to my fillings (ham,cheese,mayo,mustard & pickle) very well. Now to weed through all these posts in hopes of finding it.

Just a reminder to all to make sure you drink your water with these.

Sabs · 02-12-2008, 01:23 PM

Hi, to the boards, I'm a lurker!
I am eating a LOT of these muffins and I find that if I pop the muffin out of the mug or bowl when it is done and turn it over and put it in for a few more seconds then it finishes up the wet underside. I also toast them sometimes.

Maeve · 03-01-2008, 06:54 AM

OK, I have read thru most of this thread...maybe I'm a little crazy and just can't remember. But is this for sure ok to have on induction? I am having trouble and I don't want to make a mistake. I also noticed in the DANDR that he says to have 1 tbsp. of flaxseed or psyllium husks for fiber. Since these are flaxseed meal, they are already ground. Geeze, I am really getting technical, aren't I?

But seriously...if anyone reads this this morning, please respond. I haven't eaten yet because I'm trying so hard to be careful. And I kind of want one of these instead of my usual bacon and eggs. But I don't want to break the rules.

Thank you!

pepperette · 03-01-2008, 06:58 AM

[COLOR="DarkGreen"]I have always used egg substitute in my OMM's- no egg taste. Got real eggs now (had a ton of egg sub to get through 1st!), so will see. We used banana extract in one batch- not enough to flavor like I wanted. Does the DaVinci's make it taste like banana bread? I also use almond meal.[/COLOR]

DANDR states that 2 tbls of flax are allowed in Induction basically to help with constipation. So I would say half a OMM would be ok.

Briar · 03-02-2008, 06:27 AM

I made mine in a glass 2 cup pyrex dish(you can get them at Target) nice and big and round! Yummy!

Dee744 · 03-04-2008, 09:06 AM

Ok, finally tried it, WOW!

I did this one

3tbls almond flour 4.5 carbs
1 tbls Jay Robb Vanilla whey PPowder less than 1 carb
1/2 tsp baking powder less then 1
2 tbls canola oil o carbs
1/2 tsp vanilla, ??
1 lg egg 1 carb

total carbs 6.1, plus used it for pancake with 2 carbs smuckers sf syrup YUM! And I am stuffed!
Thanks for the recipes, keep the different ideas on flavorings coming!!!!

Jaded62 · 03-04-2008, 10:43 AM

These sound so good.I will be making these. Thank`s.

AllieCat0817 · 03-05-2008, 12:35 PM

I never thought to add protein powder to a muffin... and since I found the best protein powder on the planet (Jay Robb) I decided to try it last night. This was my muffin:

1/4 cup flaxmeal
1 egg
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 scoop Jay Robb protein powder chocolate (coulda used a whole one)
a dash of coconut sf syrup
enough chocolate Calorie Countdown milk to moisten it

Didn't use any butter or coconut oil-- it doesn't need it at all. The flaxmeal is fatty itself. Then I topped it with a very thin coat of choc flavored cream cheese. It was SO GOOD!

meeha · 03-06-2008, 10:31 AM

I use 2 tbsp of butter (noticed when I use only 1 it seems dry)

I mix 1 oz of cream cheese with 1 pack of splenda put in freezer to cool off then spread it on top of my muffin. DELISH!! with the cinnamon in the muffin it taste like a spice cake or carrot cake!!! I've been eating this every evening for 2 days now and today is gonna make 3!
