Ingredients for CinnaBun:

• 2 cups ground flaxseed
• ¼ cup Treleafia or 20-30 drops alcohol-free stevia
• 1 tablespoon gluten-free baking powder
• 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon Pink Himalayan rock salt
• 5 large eggs
• ½ cup water, room temperature
• ⅓ cup MCT oil or melted coconut oil
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  Ingredients for Frosting:
• 1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
• 20 Drops Cinnamon Stevia Liquid
• 1/2 tsp. pumpkin spice

INSTRUCTIONS

1. 1.) Preheat oven to 350F and line a 12-count muffin pan with non-bleached paper liners. Set aside.
2. 2.)  Combine flax seed with sweetener, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to combine fully and set aside.
3. 3.)  Add eggs, water, oil and vanilla extract to the jug of your high-powered blender. Blend on high for 30 seconds, until foamy.
4. 4.)  Transfer liquid mixture to the bowl with the flaxseed mixture. Stir with a spatula, just until incorporated. The mixture will be very fluffy. Once incorporated, allow to sit for 3 minutes.
5. 5.)  Spoon mixture into prepared muffin pan, each cavity should be filled about 90% of the way up. The muffins will expand while baking so don’t fill to the very tops.
6. 6.)  Bake muffins for 13-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from the oven and remove muffins from the cavities immediately and place on a cooling rack.
