Flax Seed Bread (Linaza)

This is NOT the best "Foccacia Style" bread ever, but it does the trick when on a low carb diet you crave that "bread" texture.


INGREDIENTS
2 cups flax seed meal (Harina de Linaza)
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 beaten eggs
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup oil


DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare baking sheet with parchment paper.


1) Mix dry ingredients


2) Add wet to dry, and combine well. Make sure eggs are previously beaten.


3) Let batter set for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken up (leave it too long and it gets past the point where it's easy to spread.)


4) Pour batter onto baking sheet. Because it's going to tend to mound in the middle, you'll get a more even thickness if you spread it away from the center somewhat, in roughly a rectangle an inch or two from the sides of the pan.


5) Bake for about 20 minutes, until it springs back when you touch the top and/or is visibly browning even more than flax already is.


6) Cool and cut into whatever size slices you want.
