Thanks for sharing
sounds a lovely recipe but I’ve never heard of a flax egg. What is it? x
In the recipe I describe how to make a flax egg, but you can use a regular egg it not making it Vegan.
**To make a flax egg, mix 1 tsp. ground flaxseed meal with 3 tsp. of water.
Mix together, and let sit in your fridge for ±15 minutes to set and thicken up.
oh wow, that sounds fantastic. I did look for instructions, but obviously had missed the one thing I needed. lol xx
No problem, as mentioned you can also use a regular egg, I use flax egg for Vegan purposes
