Notes

Storing:

Store for 7-10 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 6 months.

Non Dairy Milk:

You can use any kind of liquid including cows milk, non-dairy milk, or water.

Flax:

I buy preground flax and then grind it again to make sure no full seeds are left.
You can omit the water and use 2 real eggs in place of the flax.

Serving Size:

Because of the flax and baking powder, which contains sodium, I limit him to 1.5-2 muffins max per day.

Serving Suggestion:

I find that our baby does best when them when they are heated for 20ish seconds (from the refrigerator), cut into pieces, and cooled. The fridge adds a ton of moisture that makes them dense, so popping them in the microwave for a few seconds while he noshes on some fruit is the best answer!
