Flax bread - induction - 1.5c per serving (depending on flax used)

**Kat1e** · 24th March, 2012

Flax bread

Dissolve one teaspoon Splenda in 80ml bowl warm (40C) water.
Sprinkle on 1 sachet quick yeast.
Leave for ~10 mins to get bubbly.
Mix 1 cup golden flax meal with 1 teaspoon baking powder.
Beat 3 eggs with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Add egg mixture to flax and mix well.
Add yeast mixture and mix well.
Put into silicon loaf tin (or other)
Leave for 10 mins to rise a bit.

Either
Cook in microwave for ~5 mins.
When you turn it out, should be more or less dry on the bottom. If
not, I usually microwave upside down for another minute.

Or
Bake in oven at 180-200 until done (sorry forgotten timing) - it comes out much better than microwavedd

Treat as normal loaf of bread ie slice when needed- makes great very filling sandwiches - and lasts me a couple of days. Doesn't have that eggy flavour of mims

Whole loaf is 8-9 net carbs(depending on flax used). I assume it's six servings of two slices. So 1.5 ish a serving maybe

I often freeze in batches and then just toast for breakfast

Enjoy

Thanks for recipe Kate, I will try that, which flaxmeal do you use?

**Kat1e** · 24th March, 2012

My favourite is flex flaxmeal - golden flax and cold milled so basically zero net carbs. I buy in local health food store but susie has source online

I am going to try this, I have been looking all over for a yeast based flax bread .. and it was here all along. Hopefully it will be nicer than those crackers I tried earlier on .. still got a huge bag of flax with my name on it

How much flax is 1 cup?

Here's a useful conversion table

Still not sure what flax would be. The same as flour? Or corn meal? Or couscous?

**Kat1e** · 16th April, 2012

I'd probably go for about 120g ie flour or ground nuts (since its ground linseeds)
Must admit i'm fairly relaxed on quantities - try experimenting
