Equipment
- 1 3 inch ramekin, microwave-safe mug or square 5x5 inch container
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 large egg must be room temperature
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or use melted butter
- 2 teaspoon water
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Put all ingredients into a small mixing bowl and stir until a smooth batter forms.
- Grease a container of your choice with olive oil. I used a 3 inch ramekin (9cm diameter).
Option 1: Microwave
- Microwave on high for 60 - 90 seconds. Mine took 75 seconds on 900W. **see notes
Option 2: Air Fryer
- Preheat the air fryer to 320F or 160C. Put the ramekin in the centre of the air fryer basket. Air fry for 14-16 minutes until golden brown. The bread bakes quicker in larger containers.
Notes
1.6g net carbs per bread. Makes 1 serving.
** The bread cooks faster at higher power levels and takes longer at lower power levels. After 60 seconds, check and continue cooking in 5-10 second increments. The bread is done when no doughy parts remain and it has shrunk away from the mug.
If baked in a 3.5 inch ramekin, slice the bread in half horizontally like a bread roll.
Microwaved mug bread tastes especially good when it is toasted.
