Ground flaxseed is nearly all fibre and fat, which leaves almost no net carbs. It is far cheaper than almond flour and is the base of the one minute mug muffin that gets a lot of people through their first month.

What to look for

  • Golden rather than brown if you want a lighter colour and milder taste
  • Ready milled for baking, or whole seeds if you will grind them fresh
  • Small or resealable bags, since milled flax spoils within weeks at room temperature
  • Flaxseed as the only ingredient

How to use it

Mix three tablespoons with an egg, a little baking powder and butter, then microwave for about a minute for a quick muffin. In larger bakes, swap in up to a third of the almond flour. Keep the opened bag in the freezer.

The catch

Milled flax goes rancid quickly and tastes bitter when it does, and it gives bakes a dense, slightly gummy texture. Buy small bags, keep them in the freezer, and mix it with almond flour rather than using it alone.
