Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoons Ground flaxseed (optional)
- 3 tablespoons Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a microwave-safe mug or small bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and ground flaxseed (if using). Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the milk and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until fully combined and a thick batter forms. Make sure there are no dry pockets of flour left in the mixture.
Smooth the top of the batter with the back of a spoon for an even surface.
Microwave on high for 90 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the wattage of your microwave. The bread is ready when it has risen slightly, looks set, and feels firm to the touch.
Let the bread cool for 30 seconds. Use a knife to loosen the edges and remove the bread from the mug or bowl.
Slice and enjoy as is, or use it as a base for butter, jam, or a quick sandwich.
