#74 Heart Healthy Oat Flax Muffins

This is my version of the Muffin recipe on the cover of Bobs Red Mill Flaxseed meal. Flax is a whole grain substantially good for all round health. I have changed the recipe around a bit to add zuchini and cranberries. R and I have been packing these treats for our breakfast every day this week. Surprisingly, I enjoyed these moist naturally sweet muffins with orange juice and they aren't as dry as the bran muffins from the supermarket.
