A friend gave me some figs, so I thought this recipe would be a great way to make them. I didn't have the flax, so I added extra oatmeal. The first batch was bland and dense, so I added baking soda and walnuts to the second half. This improved the recipe, so I would recommend changing the recipe to 2 teaspoons baking soda and a teaspoon of salt, as well as a cup of chopped walnuts.
They were good, but they were little denser than I thought. That is probably because I'm not used to cooking with oatmeal and flax seed powder.
This recipe is so easy and the muffins so tasty! Love them!
Great recipe for figs! I used whole wheat flour and added an extra teaspoon of baking soda with a pinch of salt. I doubled the spices for our personal preference and a stevia blend for the white sugar. Low fat and high fiber — perfect for breakfast with yogurt!
We all loved them. The oatmeal & fig seeds added a nice texture. Will certainly make again.
Good way to use my figs. Next time I’ll add some nuts.
PS - unsweetened applesauce is just fine in this recipe.
This recipe is easy, very tasty. They stay moist stored in a food bag. The flavor is best after these are completely cooled. This is a favorite for me!
halved the sugar and used half whole wheat half white flour and used half applesauce half oil
