It is a version of one of the many flax seed muffins out there. I have been making it lately and like it. Quick to grab on my way out the door in the morning. I find this to be a very flexible recipe. You can experiment with different amounts of flax to protein powder etc without ruining it. Also plenty of room to add other spices for flavour difference or nuts and berries to it. I do not add any sweetener as I find the protein powder adds enough for my taste). You need to be at the nut rung for this one.

1/4 cup flax ground
1/4 cup protein powder (I use Equate Vanilla)
1/4 cup ground almonds
1/4 cup melted butter
1 egg
1 heaping tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup cream
1/4 cup water

Optional
pumpkin seeds
dried cranberries

Mix together. Let sit about 10 minutes (it thickens a bit). Makes 6 muffins.

Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees (I use cupcake papers to avoid sticky issues)

My fitday calculations came out this way (without nuts or berries)
