Ingredients

  • 2 cups Flaxseed meal
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 5 large Eggs
  • 0.5 cups Water
  • 0.25 cups Olive oil (or melted coconut oil)
  • 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaxseed meal, baking powder, and salt. Whisk thoroughly to ensure the baking powder and salt are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well with a spatula or spoon until a thick batter forms. Let the mixture sit for about 2-3 minutes to allow the flaxseed meal to absorb the liquid and thicken further.

Step 5

Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top if needed.

Step 6

Place the pan into the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 8

Serve plain, toasted, or topped with your favorite spreads. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days, or freeze for longer storage.
