FLAX MUFFIN IN A MUG

How was everyone’s holidays? If they were as crazy chaotic as mine, then I totally understand!! Things for us got a little more crazy than expected and are currently extending our stay with family. BUT thank God for homeschooling!!! Cuz we haven’t missed a beat! We also started a new unit study with Gather Round Homeschool, SPACE!!! And Ohmygosh are we loving it! And when I say “we”, I totally mean myself included! We even started creating a solar system that we are adding each planet to it as we learn about it. I may be sad when this unit is over!

But since things have been off schedule, off routine and just all around upside down, finding good filling foods has been a challenge these days. Especially since I’m not home with my own kitchen and ability to stick it up like normal. But my baby sister reminded me of this recipe I passed on to her years ago. Tried it this morning and remembered why I loved it so much! AND the best part: mix it in a microwave safe mug, microwave for 2 min and done! Top it with peanut butter or whatever you like and it’s even better!
Can you tell I’m excited? Give it a try!
