🍞 Bread in a Jar (1–2 Servings)

by

This “bread in a jar in a minute” recipe is basically a quick microwave protein–fiber bread made without white flour, yeast, or sugar.
It’s low-carb and gets structure from eggs + psyllium + flax instead of wheat.

Here’s the full, working version:

🍞 Bread in a Jar (1–2 Servings)

🥣 Ingredients

  • 3 eggs

  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk (dairy or unsweetened almond milk)

  • 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds

  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder (helps it rise)

  • Pinch of salt

(Optional: 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter for softer texture)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Mix wet ingredients
    In a bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until smooth.

  2. Add dry ingredients
    Stir in flax seeds, psyllium, baking powder, and salt.
    Mix well and let sit 1–2 minutes — it will thicken quickly.

  3. Prepare jar or mug
    Lightly grease a microwave-safe jar or large mug.

  4. Microwave
    Pour batter in (fill only halfway).
    Microwave on high for 2–3 minutes.
    (Time depends on microwave strength — start with 2 minutes.)

  5. Check doneness
    The bread should be firm and springy.
    Let cool 1–2 minutes, then remove and slice.

🔥 Oven Option (Better Texture)

Pour into a small greased loaf pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20–25 minutes.

💡 Tips

  • Use ground flax, not whole seeds.

  • Psyllium gives structure — without it, it won’t hold like bread.

  • For savory bread: add herbs, garlic powder, or cheese.

  • For sweeter version: add cinnamon + a little natural sweetener.

⚠️ Important Notes

  • This is not traditional fluffy bread — it’s denser, more like sandwich loaf.

  • High in fiber — drink water when eating it.

  • If you’re new to psyllium, start small to avoid bloating.
