Description

This recipe combines nutritious ingredients like flax seeds, almonds, peanuts, and cashews with eggs and milk to create a moist and delicious nutty loaf. Perfect for a quick breakfast or an energy-packed snack, this recipe is rich in healthy fats, fiber, and protein.


Ingredients

  • 3 eggs

  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk

  • 2 tablespoons flax seeds

  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk

  • 1/2 cup (80 g) almonds

  • 1/3 cup (40 g) peanuts

  • 1/4 cup (30 g) cashews

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • Salt, to taste


Instructions

1. Prepare the Nut Mix:

  • In a large mixing bowl, crack the 3 eggs and whisk them together.

  • Add 1 cup of milk to the eggs and whisk to combine.

2. Add the Dry Ingredients:

  • To the egg and milk mixture, add 2 tablespoons of flax seeds, 2 tablespoons of psyllium husk, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.

3. Incorporate the Nuts:

  • Roughly chop the almonds, peanuts, and cashews into small pieces. Add the chopped nuts into the mixture and stir to evenly distribute them throughout.

4. Prepare the Loaf:

  • Pour the mixture into a greased loaf pan or one lined with parchment paper.

  • Use a spoon or spatula to smooth the top.

5. Bake:

  • Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C).

  • Bake the loaf for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. Cool and Serve:

  • Allow the loaf to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This helps set the texture and makes it easier to cut.

Notes

  • Add More Flavor: If you like, you can enhance the flavor with spices such as cinnamon or vanilla extract.

  • Use Mixed Nuts: Feel free to mix and match different nuts to suit your taste or what you have available.

  • Texture Adjustments: If you prefer a smoother texture, you can grind the nuts a little finer or omit some of the larger chunks.
