I LOVE muffins. However most muffins are really cleverly disguised mini cakes, and loaded with calories! These healthy pumpkin and FitFlax muffins are not only delicious, but they are good for you and low in calories. They are not too sweet and freeze well too. They are best served warm and shared with friends with a great cup of coffee!
(FitFlax is loaded with Omega 3's, fiber & antioxidants and helps with weight loss.)
