Frocaccia Bread

I was just over at the Recipe forum and found this! I have no idea who or if anyone can have this but since it was made with the Flax, I am thinking it might be ok for some...If you are a newbie, I hope you know there is a recipe forum that has wonderful recipes on it as well as some place on here called something like "the world according to eggface"She has wonderful recipes for all stages of the WL process. I hate to mention it but T.s was soooooooooo much better, but this will do!

This is a good alternative to bread. I cut this into 2x3 inch pieces and freeze in packs of two. I use it as sandwich bread.

Focaccia

 

Ingredients:

2 cups flax seed meal

1 Tablespoon baking powder or 10 grain pancake mix

1 teaspoon salt

1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning

1-2 Tablespoons sweetening power from artificial sweetener

5 beaten eggs

1/2 cup water

¼ cup olive oil

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare pan (a 10X15 pan with sides works best) with oiled parchment paper.

1) Mix dry ingredients well -- a whisk works well.

2) Add wet to dry, and combine well. Make sure there aren't obvious strings of egg white hanging out in the batter.

3) Let batter set for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken up some.

4) Pour batter onto pan. 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.

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

 

Sounds yummy. Thank you for sharing.

Flax seed is a good source of omega 3-without the fishy back burp.
