This recipe was born out of a desire to help a friend whose son has just been diagnosed with severe allergies...as some of you know the struggle to adapt and find food options can be overwhelming so, this was my attempt to lend a hand...

SIDENOTE: the flaxmeal and water are the egg replacers in this recipe -equivalent to 3 eggs...I plan on making this today with the egg to see how it turns out -I'll post an update in the comment section and let you know...
This is oh so yummy, healthy and VIRTUALLY allergy-free!
So, I added two eggs and left in 1 tbsp. flaxmeal and 3 tbsp. of water and it turned out great! It was a bit spongy. I think the 3rd egg would of made it into a chocolate muffin...see my "Decadent Black Forest Brownie Delight" post for a delicious application!
