Flaxseed loaf

1 January 2025

Flax loaf is great low carb addition to any meal but I enjoy with breakfast . Try Savoy cabbage with olive oil as a low oxalate alternative to spinach 

No tomato if doing strict low lectin , thankfully I can now tolerate 


Ingredients:

- 100g / 1/2 Cup Flaxseed ground

- 2 Eggs

- 1/4 cup or 65ml Cup Water 

- 1/4 Cup either melted butter, melted coconut oil or olive oil

- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt

- 15 ml / 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

- 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds ( optional) 

 

Instructions:

- Preheat the oven to 150 degrees C. You need a medium heat as you don’t want to over cook flax. Slow and low is the trick with flax.  Too high heat and it will smell 'fishy'

- Grease a 1lb bread tin with butter/oil and line with parchment paper.

- Whisk the eggs until light and frothy.

- Add the butter/oil and water and mix well.

- Add the flax, salt , bicarbonate, fennel and vinegar and mix well.

- Put the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for 40-50 mins until firm.

This is one of my current favourites. Batch make and put what you don’t need in freezer to grab and go on busier days. Great balance of protein, natural fats and veg!

These are a standard of mine, quick to make, nice to eat, as it should be.
