This energizing, single-serve bread is light, fluffy, and made in just one minute. Free from white flour, sugar, and yeast, it’s packed with nourishing ingredients to support a healthy, active lifestyle—ideal for breakfast, snacks, or a quick fuel-up anytime.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour (or oat flour for a gluten-free option)
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (or chia seeds)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, cocoa powder, or vanilla extract for flavor
  • Optional Mix-Ins: 1 tablespoon chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
  • 1 tablespoon seeds (e.g., sunflower, pumpkin)
  • 1 tablespoon shredded coconut or unsweetened cacao nibs
  • Savory options: grated cheese, herbs, or spices like garlic powder


Instructions

  1. Lightly grease a microwave-safe jar, mug, or ramekin (at least 1 cup capacity).
  2. In the container, whisk together almond flour, flaxseed, baking powder, salt, and any optional flavorings.
  3. Add the egg and milk, stirring until smooth and well combined.
  4. Fold in any mix-ins you like.
  5. Microwave on high for 1 minute. If the top isn’t fully set, continue in 10-second intervals.
  6. Let cool for a moment before enjoying. Serve straight from the jar or pop it out onto a plate.

Notes

  • Customize with sweet or savory mix-ins for versatile flavors.
  • To make it vegan, substitute egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed + 3 tbsp water).
  • Use a wide jar or mug for even cooking and easier removal.
