Sweetish bagel/muffin/cake/bun
Hello!
I am looking for a sweetish (cinamon, chocolate chips, etc) product to eat in the morning with my coffee (bun, roll, muffin, bagel, etc). Is there a ready to eat product that I can buy? I live in UK! thanks! |
There really is nothing low carb readily available on the shelves that I have found in the sweet pastry line.
Many of us have used the "muffin in a mug" aka MiM recipe to make something sweet or savoury to substitute. I make a sort of bread using ground linseeds. My recipe is 4 Tablespoons ground linseeds (flax in the USA) 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1 Tablespoon oil (I like coconut oil or toasted sesame oil or 1/2 oz melted butter) 1 egg Melt fat or oil if needed, mix with egg then add the dry ingredients and let sit for a minute to thicken up. Spread out on baking parchment or put in a microwaveable container and microwave for a minute or so till cooked. If you want it sweet you can add some artificial sweetener. I tend to prefer savoury so sometimes add some grated parmesan and/or herbs or spices. You can adapt this recipe to use more or less ground linseed, or use ground almonds or coconut flour insted or as a mix to vary the taste and texture. I like it because though not actually being the same as regular bread it does the job of bread. It only takes a few minutes to make too. |
Here is a link to the index post of the "baking" forum
