Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 150 g 1 cup ground flaxseed A fantastic binding agent rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
  • 35 g 1/4 cup psyllium husk Helps with the bread’s structure and texture.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 240 ml 1 cup water
  • 15 ml 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional) Can be substituted with melted coconut oil.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground flaxseed, psyllium husk, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
  3. Add the water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir well until a thick dough forms. Allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes.
  4. Line your baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  5. Transfer the dough to the pan, smoothing it into an even layer.
Baking
  1. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  2. Once done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

This bread is fantastic with creamy spreads, deli meats, and fresh vegetables. Store in an airtight container for up to five days. For longer storage, slice and freeze.
