WHY IT'S KETO-FRIENDLY
- Use a recipe written for ground flax; a low carb count does not establish a flour or egg substitution ratio.
PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
KETO BREAD AND MUFFINS
Combine with Almond Flour, eggs, and baking powder for sturdy, low-carb loaves or muffins.
SMOOTHIE BOOSTER
Blend 2–3 tbsp into a smoothie for thickness, fiber, and omega-3s.
EGG REPLACER
Mix 1 tbsp flax meal + 3 tbsp water; rest 5 minutes = 1 “flax egg.”
KETO CRACKERS
Mix with cheese/seeds/spices; roll thin and bake until crisp.
YOGURT OR PORRIDGE TOPPER
Stir into Greek Yogurt (Full Fat) or keto porridge for a nutty boost.
COATING FOR PROTEINS
