Ingredients
- 2 cups Ground flaxseed
- 5 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.333 cup Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a standard 8x4-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the ground flaxseed, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to ensure an even mixture.
Step 3
In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs until they’re frothy. Add the water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar, then mix until well combined.
Step 4
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring continuously to form a thick batter.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even surface.
Step 6
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Step 8
Slice and serve as desired. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
