Flax Seed Mug Muffin

There are many versions of this around on the web - I think the recipe originates with Dr. Oz?  It's easy, and tasty, and you can make many variations of it.  I often mix all the ingredients together in a mug or mini corningware and take it to school to microwave for breakfast or a mid-morning snack.

Basic Ingredients:

• 1 egg
• 3 Tb. flax seed
• 1 tsp. coconut oil, grapeseed oil, or olive oil
• 1 tsp. powdered stevia
• 1 tsp. baking powder

Optional Add-Ins:

• 1/4 banana
• scoop of pumpkin puree
• cinnamon, nutmeg, or other spices
• dark chocolate chips
• berries or other fruit
• omit stevia, and add it garlic salt, a bit of shredded cheese, and chopped bell pepper

Directions:

1. Melt coconut oil in the microwave if it's still solid.  Add egg and whisk.  Add dry ingredients and whisk again.  Add any add-ins you'd like. 
2. Microwave at full power for 1 minute.  If egg isn't cooked through, try another 15 seconds or so.
3. Once cooked, you can pop it out onto a plate if you'd like, and top with butter or fruit-only jam, or this morning I used leftover Berry Sauce. For Leah, I use a bit of maple syrup.
