       Flaxseed Almond Bread!!

       Of course, its no good for anyone with a nut or egg allergy but
       for everyone else, it is a great energy dense, nutritional
       powerhouse!
       The only change I made to make it truly grain free is to replace
       the 3 tsp of baking powder (which has rice starch or even
       wheaten cornstarch added) with your own baking powder mix of 1.5
       tsp cream of tarter and just under 1 tsp of baking soda/sodium
       bicarbonate/bicarbonate of soda.
       Ingredients
       1 1/3 cups flax meal
       2/3 cup almond flour
       1.5 tsp cream of tarter
       1 tsp baking soda/sodium bicarbonate/bicarbonate of soda
       4 eggs
       3 tbsp olive oil
       salt and pepper to taste
       A tiny bit of water to achieve the required consistency.
       Method
       Rocofit Method:  Gently mix the eggs and olive oil together.  In
       a separate bowl mix the dry ingredients.  Add the eggs and olive
       oil to the dry ingredients, mix together and add a dash of water
       to give it a slightly runny consistency.
       Bake for 30 minutes at 175C or 350F
       Grain Free Living Method:Whack everything into your food
       processor/thermomix. Give it a quick blast until mixed.  My mix
       was quite thick even with about 1/4 cup added water.  Spoon into
       a greased and lined small loaf tin.  I grease with coconut oil.
       Bake for 30 minutes at 175C or 350F.  Turns out amazing straight
       from the oven.
       Nutritional Info
       I worked out that if it's cut into 15 slices (which my loaf
       did), each slice is 148 cals, 12 g fat (its all good fat
       though), 6.2 g carbs, 5.4 g protein. Each slice provides 4.3%
       daily allowance of calcium plus 7% of iron.
