Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Ground flaxseed meal
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 5 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Water
- 0.33 cups Olive oil
- 1 teaspoons Honey (optional, for slight sweetness)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard 8x4-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground flaxseed meal, baking powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, olive oil, and honey (if using). Whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir everything together with a spatula or spoon until a thick batter forms. The mixture will be somewhat sticky but should hold together well.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with the back of a spoon or a spatula to create an even surface.
Place the loaf pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and serve as desired. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
