Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (224 g / 7.9 oz) ground flax meal
  • 1 tbsp (15 g / 0.53 oz) baking powder
  • 1 tsp (6 g / 0.21 oz) salt
  • 2 tbsp (25 g / 0.88 oz) granulated sweetener of choice
  • 5 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup (120 ml / 4.1 fl oz) water
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive or avocado oil
  • For a lighter, airier texture, separate the eggs. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold them into the batter after mixing in the yolks and other wet .
  • Store the cooled bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. It also freezes beautifully—just separate slices with parchment paper for easy toasting.
  • Use a standard half-sheet pan (18x13 inches) for a thinner, crispier bread, or a quarter-sheet pan (9x13 inches) for a thicker, softer loaf.

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C.
  2. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or grease it lightly with oil.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the ground flax meal, baking powder, salt, and sweetener until thoroughly combined.
  4. Add the beaten eggs, water, and oil to the dry .
  5. Mix vigorously until a smooth, thick batter forms with no dry spots.
  6. Let the batter rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the flax meal to absorb the liquid and thicken.
  7. Pour the batter onto your prepared baking tray and use a spatula to spread it evenly to about a ½-inch thickness.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is firm to the touch and the edges are golden brown.
  9. Allow the bread to cool completely on the tray before slicing and serving.
  10. Enjoy!
  11. Add 1-2 teaspoons (10 ml / 0.3 fl oz) of dried rosemary, garlic powder, or Italian seasoning to the dry for a more savory, classic focaccia flavor.
