Are you sometimes craving a good bakery style muffin ? I do and I like to fix my food craving very quickly. That is how I created this simple flaxseed muffin in a mug recipe. It is a very healthy recipe made of few simple low carb ingredients. I baked my muffin in my microwave for a even faster result BUT you can bake yours in a regular oven if you like. It simply takes a bit longer that is why I recommend to cook yours in a mug in the microwave if you crave something sweet now!

So, this is what you need to make a delicious bakery style flaxseed muffin in a mug:

Flaxseed meal – flaxseed is high in fiber and omega 3, plus it is very low carb so a great flour base to create healthy low carb muffins
Coconut oil – you can use any vegetable oil in this recipe but coconut oil is an healthy oil full of anti fungal and antibacterial properties without saying that the flavor it adds is bomb!
Vanilla extract
Cinnamon
Egg – don’t replace the egg in this recipe it won’t work ! Trust me I tried and there is no great egg free option for this recipe.
Baking powder – or 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Sugar free crystal sweetener – my favorite sweetener is this one, it is a natural sugar free sweetener, a combo of erythritol and stevia
Raspberries – optional, you can simply make the recipe without fruits or use blueberries, lemon zest or orange zest to add healthy low carb flavors
Sugar free chocolate chips – optional you can replace this by any kind of chopped nuts like walnuts, almonds or pecan.

Oven or microwave ?

I love to bake my flaxseed muffin into a mug in the microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds. However, you can also use your oven, simply make sure you are using a oven proof ramekin or muffin tray. Bake your recipe at 180 C (350F) for about 12-15 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle of the muffin come out clean. You can also quadruple the recipe to make a larger batter and fill a 12 holes mini muffin tray to make small size flaxseed muffins for your week.
