Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups flax seeds
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp psyllium
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 380°F.
  2. Grind flax seed and pumpkin seed as finely as possible.
  3. In a big mixing bowl, combine ground seeds, nuts, baking powder, soda and salt.
  4. Divide eggs.
  5. Beat egg whites until stiff.
  6. Soak psyllium husks or chia seeds in 1/2 cup water.
  7. Cream together egg yolks, 1 cup water and 3/4 cup buttermilk, then mix in soaked psyllium or chia.
  8. Dump liquid into dry ingredients, combine thoroughly.
  9. Line 12 muffin tins with papers.
  10. Check batter: It should be creamy, not too thick - if it's to thick, add a little more water until it's smooth.
  11. Fold in stiff egg whites.
  12. Fill batter into muffin tins, bake at 380° for about 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
  13. Immediately remove muffins from muffin tray and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  14. If you like sweet muffins, add sweetener and spices to taste (great with cinnamon) to the batter. I use to eat them instead of sandwich rolls.
  15. Enjoy!
