These Cinnamon Walnut Flax Muffins are the perfect breakfast muffins on the go! I often make a triple batch so that I can throw 2 batches in the freezer. No one would know they are starch-free!

I like to use ground golden flax seeds, though dark brown flax works great too, I just find the golden flax has a lighter taste.

Ingredients

flaxseeds, ground		1 cup
eggs, large		4
avocado oil (or other light oil)		½ cup
coconut sugar		½ cup
coconut flour		¼ cup
vanilla extract		2 tsp
cinnamon		2 tsp
lemon juice		1 tsp
baking soda		½ tsp
sea salt		pinch
walnuts chopped		1 cup
raisins or dried cherries		1 cup

Directions:

Preheat over to 325°F.
If starting with whole golden flaxseed, grind it in a coffee grinder, then measure 1 cup.
Mix ingredients together in a mixing bowl in the order they are listed. You can use an electric mixer if you’d like, but be sure to add in optional walnuts and fruit last, after using a mixer.
Spoon batter into a muffin pan lined with muffin liners to prevent sticking.
Bake at 325°F for 18 to 22 minutes.
Enjoy.
These Cinnamon Walnut Flax Muffins freeze extremely well.
