Chocolate Flaxseed Muffins Recipes

MOIST CHOCOLATE FLAX MUFFINS

Steps:

• Oven 350 degrees. Makes 9 muffins.
• Mix first 5 ingredients and set aside.
• In medium sized microwave safe bowl, add the chocolate block and slowly, gently melt in microwave, stirring every ten seconds. Dont burn the chocolate. Finish the melting by vigorously stirring in the bowl.
• Add in the baking powder. If it cools down, heat for a couple seconds in the microwave and then add one egg. Stir until completely blended. (This takes patience and time). Once blended, add the other two eggs and mix well. Add the remaining ingredients and combine.
• Add wet to dry and mix well. Let batter set for a few minutes while you prepare pans for 9 cupcakes. (I use silicone cupcake liners).
• Place batter evenly in liners with an ice cream scoop. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until the top is firm to touch. Cool completely and store in ziplock bag in fridge (remember there is no sugar to preserve them).

IRRESISTIBLE DOUBLE CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners.

In another bowl, beat the buttermilk, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry, mixing just until combined. Spoon equal amounts of batter into muffin cups.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 to 30 minutes.

MOIST CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Remember to preheat oven to 175 degrees Celcius before starting.
• In a large/medium bowl mix in the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt).
• Melt the butter/margarine with the 2 ounces of chocolate in the microwave in another bowl.
• Should take around 30-40 seconds depending on the type of microwave.
• (Check after 30 seconds and add on the time if not melted).
• When melted, take out the bowl and slowly (becareful to not spill the liquid) blend together the chocolate and butter/margarine until well mixed.
• Make sure no chocolate is left stuck at the bottom of the bowl.
• Set aside and let it cool for 1 minute.
• When cooled, combine the chocolate yogurt into the same bowl and carefully mix them together until the liquid is quick thick.
• If the bowl is not large enough, transfer this mixture to a slight bigger one.
• Afterwards, add in the sugar and mix well.
• Pour this wet mixture into the flour mixture and slowly blend the two together.
• Do not over mix.
• The result should be quick sticky and thick.
• Leave it aside.
• Now in separate bowl, beat the egg whites until it forms soft peaks.
• Fold the egg whites into the flour's thick mixture until well blended.
• But again, don't overmix to let the air escape from the mixture.
• Spoon batter equally into the muffin tins (12).
• Bake for around 20 minutes.
• Check the readiness by poking a toothpick into a muffin nearest you.
• If the center comes out clean then it's done.
• If not, bake for another 5-10 minutes.
