Flax made Low Carb Livable for me!!!
It makes my cake....my cookies....my brownies....my answer to "No Wheat for me please!"
Wheat causes cravings for me.....hence....Flax Forever.....

I guess I need to try flax again along with the OMM now that I now more about LC and flavorings. I just need some good recipes that are tried and true with simple ingredients to get me started. Do either of you mind sharing some? I am not the greatest baker so details are important

. Thanks.

I love the flax muffin. Really tasty and gets things moving in the right direction.

Long live the flax! Great idea with the banana ext. Now why didnt I think about that?

daisymae · 09-19-2011, 06:59 PM

Try it with Pumpkin Pie Spice ... and you'll have a wonderful "spice cake" !!! :-)

YUMMY !!!

AnitaElliott · 09-19-2011, 07:47 PM

Ohhhh....I bet the pumpkin pie spice would be good! Especially if I added a sugar free cream cheese frosting for a treat!

Heheher · 09-19-2011, 07:52 PM

I left out the cinnamon. Added 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice and 1 tbsp pumpkin from a can. Was very yummy. Then add cream cheese frosting. You can even stick a frozen cream cheese cloud in the middle of the batter before you cook it for a creamy center. Yuuuuummmyyyyy!

Heather - how do you make cream cheese frosting? Sounds yummy. TIA

Heheher · 09-19-2011, 08:06 PM

I just use the cloud recipe.

1 stick butter, 1 block cream cheese, sweeten to taste. I use stevia but whatever you like. Make sure butter and cream cheese are soft and whip. Add sweetener to taste.
I usually freeze part for cream cheese clouds and save some for my muffins. You can use flavored sf syrups to add variety. Carmel. Chocolate. Raspberry. Whatever you like. Just skip the sweetener as those syrups usually have splenda.

I did a flax muffin the other day....omit cinnamon. Add 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice. Add 1 TBSP pumpkin. Add 1 TBSP carmel davincis. 1 TBSP chopped pecans. Cook, then spread with cream cheese frosting and sprinkle on a few more pecans. Really good. I could not eat the whole thing.

DITTO for me with

of the MIM!

I eat one every day!! A life saver. Since I don't feel deprived, I don't cheat!

I had the same epiphany a week ago when I tried it for the first time. I was getting so tired of eggs for breakfast every morning and this helps me break it up by having them for breakfast 2-3 mornings per week. So far, I've tried the original recipie with butter and with cream cheese. The cream cheese made me think I was eating a whole grain bagel! Next time I think i'm going to try the garlic and herb cream cheese. I can't wait to try some of the suggested variations and coming up with a few of my own!

LCWizard · 09-20-2011, 10:19 AM

Yea.. I really need to try OMM... this week

zipp2play · 09-20-2011, 10:22 AM
