All those years when my son was allergic to everything...we could have had this IF we only knew about it.
I have learned about it because I am eating low carb, trying to lose some weight (always!) but this is such a wonderfully healthy recipe regardless of your carb intake.
Why?
Basically, you put all the ingredients in a bowl, stir and cook in the microwave. Or you can bake in a mug for a more muffin-like shape.
Make sure and have soft butter ready to spread when it gets out of the toaster. It’s a little tricky to pour the lump out of the bowl. I make sure it is firm on top before I take it out of the microwave. Then dump the bowl upside down on a cutting board. Let it cool for a minute and then carefully slice in half with a bread knife so it can fit in a toaster.
Toast and butter. Butter is a must!
It is surprisingly good and bread-like. I have added some ginger and cloves to make it more gingerbread-ish.
I'd like to make a larger batch and bake it in the oven. Try it and let me know if you make any great alterations of it.
It can also be watered down and made into a pancake.

Can you believe it?! It's definitely not bread, but it really fills the void when eating low carb.
Try it!
