Pop one in the post for me please Mark

Is there an alternative to linseed/flaxseed, cause like Tom Kerridge's Almond bread I find the taste of linseed quite revolting (memories of cricket bats and my wife says hockey sticks).

You could just try it without. Maybe add more flour to make it less egg like.

I can't stand flax either, though I find golden flax meal isn't too nasty.
I've tried something like this off the Atkins website:

Uses just almond rather than flaxseed and is made in a mug. You can add chocolate powder or various spices to vary it. I quite like allspice and ginger.

Giving this thread a bump for you folk to try🙂

This really is the best thing ever! I used this recipe to make a pizza base last night. Just doubled the ingredients and baked in a cake tin. I should've omitted the baking powder as it did rise a bit.

I had forgotten this. Had another go, replacing the flaxseed with coconut flour And added a couple of teaspoons of pumpkin seeds.

I also tried halving the egg quantity and adding a few tablespoons of milk, a bit more coconut flour and a few raisins, plus a teaspoonful of sugar substitute.

With the rest of the egg, I made another with a spoonful of cocoa powder and some chopped walnuts and almonds again with added sugar substitute.

They don’t have the airy moisture of conventional muffins but are quite edible.

Will give them a go.😉
