Low carb flax bread.

This is amazing, just what I have been looking for, as my Lidl has been running out of hp rolls. @RobPL, what is the weight of the 2 cups flax seeds? I mill my own, so would like to have an indication in advance.
I just noticed your comment 'I mill my own' when reading through this thread..what equipment do you use for milling your own?

Hi, I just use a high-powered food processor, or, much better and faster, a smaller attachment, one you can use for pesto, etc. I save quite a lot of money
 
I just made this. It's not bad and less than 10 carbs for the whole loaf.
It's not very high so I'm going to try it next with a smaller but taller tin.
Would anyone like the recipe?
yes please sorry, just seen it
 
@RobPL Hi there, just had a look here & copied your recipe which I'm going to try. Just wanted to say thank for it.
Regards Steve (Aka Squeekyboy).
 
@Robbity Hi there, I just read this & wondered if you could give me your recipe using Sesame flour for savory muffins, as I'm just starting to try making breads myself for first time ever & looking for different recipes as I go along? Will of course let you know how I go on with them. Kind regards Steve (aka Squeekyboy)
 
Hehe. I just hope you enjoy it. I went looking for a smaller tin yesterday to try and force it to be higher but couldn't find one.
@RobPL Hi there, I'll be trying to make your fantastic looking loaf today but will be trying a product known as ''NO EGG'', to see if it can replace eggs in bread mixes. If it works, I'll let everyone know, as I, like a small number of other people, am allergic to eggs. Thanks again! Squeekyboy
 

Have a look in our low carb recipes thread - I did a long post about making all sorts of muffins, but basically:

200g sesame flour or various combinations (e.g. sesame & milled flaxseed)
approx 75 g softened butter
3 eggs beaten
1-1.5 teasp baking powder
seasoning to taste
and whatever savoury goodies you care to add

mix well and bung in to 6-7 largish silicone muffin cases and microwave for approx 3 mins - test with cocktail stick and they're OK when it comes out clean...

Wow can we have bread???
Not necessarily the sort of non-diabetic high carbohydrate bread you're probably thinking of - but there are all sorts of low carb non-starchy "flour" variations that we can use to bake alternatives instead.

I like the look of that loaf. I've not missed bread that much since going low-carb but now I'm sorely tempted. Thank you for the recipe.
