Alrighty - I'll be referring back to my "B" post in this one! My bananas finally ripened, so I was able to make my 'special ingredient' banana bread. And since I stopped at the health food store Saturday and picked up some flaxseed meal, I replaced 1/2 cup of the flour with flaxseed meal - just to see how it would work. I also got a bit happy with the 'special ingredient' and therefore left out the butter from the recipe, too. I didn't want it too soupy. I actually should have left it in, since my darn oven temp is wonky, so I slightly overbaked it.
This bag was about $3.50. Pretty reasonably priced, I thought.
Looks pretty normal to me!
So how was it??
Pretty darn good, I think!
You couldn't taste anything different going on, so you just have to sit back & enjoy the flavor & the knowledge that you're eating good stuff!
The package also said you could mix it in meatloaf. So I tried that for dinner last night. BTW - I even got the blessing of little Miss Picky! She was in the health food store with me when I read the package and she said she'd try it! I used about half flaxseed meal & half breadcrumbs & got the same verdict. You couldn't tell it was there.
Now to look online and see what else I can use this for!
