Banana Walnut Muffins


BANANA WALNUT MUFFINS
4 ounces almond flour (1 cup)
1/2 cup golden flax meal (2 ounces)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 ounce walnuts, chopped (1/4 cup)
1 cup granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon banana extract
1/2 teaspoon caramel extract, if you have it
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons water
2 eggs

In a small bowl, stir together the almond flour, flax meal, baking powder, salt, nuts and granular Splenda, if using. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave. Stir in the liquid Splenda, if using, the extracts, cream and water. Add the dry ingredients and the eggs to the butter mixture; stir with a wooden spoon until well blended. Fill 6 paper-lined muffin cups with the batter, dividing it evenly among them. You can spray the liners with cooking spray, but they don't seem to stick too much. Bake at 350ยบ 15-20 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in the refrigerator. Serve with butter or Cream Cheese Spread.
