Ingredients

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
  • ½ cup cornmeal
  • ¼ cup ground flax seed
  • 2 tablespoon firmly packed brown sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup skim milk
  • ¼ cup canola oil (or other neutral-tasting oil)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly spray a 12-cavity muffin pan with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, ground flax, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.
  • In another bowl, beat the egg with a whisk. Whisk in the skim milk and oil.
  • Pour the egg/milk/oil mixture into the flour mixture and stir with a spoon until fully incorporated.
  • Spoon the batter into the muffin tin. A ¼-cup measuring cup or an ice cream scoop work well.
  • Bake the muffins at 350 °F for 20 minutes or so. Muffins are done when the tops are golden-brown. A toothpick inserted into the center of each muffin will come out clean.
