Flaxoatmeal Recipes

Steps:

• In a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine all ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or until liquid is absorbed and oatmeal is tender. If desired, top with sliced almonds, whole milk and additional molasses.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Whisk the flour, oats, flaxseed, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a bowl.
• Beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture and beat until just combined, scraping down the bowl as needed. Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool 3 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients in a microwave safe bowl.
• Microwave on high for 2 minutes
• Stir oatmeal, and add flaxseed (it will thicken the oatmeal so don't worry if the mixture seems thin at first!)
• Top with optional Splenda packets. I also top mine with more sliced banana & low carb vanilla yogurt. Raisins or nuts would be good, too!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cream together the butter, sugar, Splenda, and brown sugar.
• Add the flax meal and mix.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and vanilla.
• Add to the flax mixture and mix together.
• Sift together the flour and baking soda in another bowl.
• Add the oatmeal, cinnamon, ginger, and nuts, and stir with the flour.
• Combine with the flax mixture.
• Form into approximately 1 tablespoon size balls.
• Flatten on a baking sheet and press sugar into the top.
• Bake approximately 10-15 minutes. until slightly brown.
• Cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• in a very large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of the whole wheat flour and white bread flour, rolled oats, flaxseeds, brown suagr, yeast and salt. add water and butter, beat until smooth, occasionally scraping down the sides of the bowl, about 3 minutes. with wooden spoon, stir in oat bran and 2 cups of the remaining whole wheat flour to make soft sticky dough.
• turn out onto lightly floured surface. knead for 10 minutes, adding enough of the remaining flour to make dough smooth and elastic. place in greased bowl, turning to grease all over. cover with plastic wrap, let rise in warm, draft-free place until double in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• punch down dough, turn out onto lightly floured surface, knead into ball, divide in half and shape into ball again. gently pull each ball into 12x7-inch rectangle.
• starting at narrow end, roll up into cylinder; pinch along seam to seal. fit seam side down, into two greased 9x5-inch loaf pans. cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm, draft free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• bake in centre of 375*F oven until golden brown and load sounds hollow when tapped on bottom, 30 to 35 minutes.
• remove from pans and let cool on racks.
