MUFFINS

1 Cup Ground Flaxseed
½ Cup Pumpkin puree
½ Cup Erythritol
3 Eggs
½ Cup Butter melted
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Vanilla essence
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
½ teaspoon All spice
1 teaspoon Ginger ground

TOPPING (Optional)

Instructions

MAKE THE MUFFINS

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees.
Grease a muffin tin (it makes 9 muffins) or use muffin cases.
Place all the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
Add the butter, eggs, pumpkin and vanilla and stir until combine thoroughly.
Spoon the mixture into the muffin tin.
Bake for 20-30 minutes until the tops are firm.

TOPPING

Blend all of the topping ingredients together until smooth (I use a hand blender but a fork and elbow power is good too!).
When the muffins are cool, spread the topping over them.
Eat and enjoy!
