Name: Super-Healthy Vegan Pomegranate Orange Muffins
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups whole wheat flour (1 cup of millet flour also works well, or you can use a cup of white unbleached wheat flour); 1/2 cup sugar; 2/3 cup soymilk (add more if you need, also, I used almond milk); 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 1 1/2 tablespoons flax seeds, ground; 3 -4 tablespoons water; 2 tablespoons safflower oil; 1 teaspoon orange zest; 1/4 cup orange juice; 2/3 cup pomegranate seeds

Servings: persons

2 cups whole wheat flour (1 cup of millet flour also works well, or you can use a cup of white unbleached wheat flour)
1/2 cup sugar
2/3 cup soymilk (add more if you need, also, I used almond milk)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 tablespoons flax seeds, ground
3 -4 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons safflower oil
1 teaspoon orange zest
1/4 cup orange juice
2/3 cup pomegranate seeds

1
Preheat oven to 350 fahrenheit. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with papers.
2
Combine the ground flax and water in a measuring cup, and whisk vigorously for about 2 minutes. Let this stand while you assemble the other ingredients. It will have become quite thick and gooey, and this is probably the very best egg substitute I know for vegan baked goods.
3
Sift together the flours, sugar, baking power and soda in a large bowl. Add the wet ingredients (all but pom seeds), and mix till just moistened; as usual, over-mixing will lead to heavy muffins. Finally, fold in the pomegranate seeds, reserving a few for the muffin tops.
4
Divide the batter equally in the prepared cups. Sprinkle five or six seeds on the top of each muffin, and pop 'em in the oven. 20-25 minutes should do it.
5
Remove, toothpick-test, let cool on a rack, and enjoy warm with tea!
