I passed a kidney stone last year, so I stay away from oxalates which are in abundance in whole grains. I also can't stand the insoluble fiber either. Most of the time I eat white jasmine rice - the least allergenic of all grains with very little fiber(soluble).

Super Flax Muffins
1 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 1/2 cups Ground Flax Seed
3/4 cup Brown Sugar or Evaporated Cane Juice
1 tbsp Baking Powder
3/4 tsp Nutmeg
1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
2 cups Milk
1 beaten Egg

Pre-heat the oven to 350°. Mix all dry ingredients together. Beat the egg in a separate bowl, then add the milk. Pour the combined liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until moistened.

Spray muffin tins with non-stick spray or use pan liners. Fill the tins 3/4 full. Bake at 350° for approx. 20 - 25 minutes. Muffins should be lightly browned on top and nicely browned on the sides when done. Remove and put on cooling racks.

Muffins freeze very well, so I usually make a triple batch, eat some, give some away, and then freeze some.

Mix Ins
I like to mix all kinds of stuff into the muffins. I rarely measure any of it so I'll only be able to give you general amounts.

Raisin Carrot Almond
My favorite so far is to mix in about:
1/2 cup grated carrot
1/3 cup chopped raw almonds
3/4 cup raisins.

Again measurements are approximate and I like a lot of raisins.

Zuchinni Walnut
2/3 cup grated zuchinni
1/3 cup chopped walnuts

Blueberry Almond
3/4 cup blueberries (fresh or defrosted)
1/3 cup chopped raw almonds

Just experiment. I'm ready to try chopping up some mango with fresh pineapple and coconut. Sounds good.
