  • 1 tablespoon flax seed meal or flax seeds coarsely ground

    You can prepare the compote beforehand and keep. Blend the blueberries, apple, sugar and cinnamon in a blender into a smooth puree. use a little water if needed.

  2. 2

    Cook this puree on low heat till it thickens to a thick syrup consistency. about 15-20 minutes.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, add flax meal, vinegar, oil, and 1/4 (60ml) cup almost hot water.

  4. 4

    Mix it well till the mixture is well combined. Add in the oats and sugar, mix well and keep aside for a few minutes.

  5. 5

    In a bowl, mix the flours, salt, baking powder.

  6. 6

    Add the fruit syrup and the flours to the flax meal mixture. Mix lightly.

  7. 7

    If the mixture seems too dry, add in a few tablespoons water at a time. Mix until just about combined like a muffin batter.

  8. 8

    Grease a mini loaf well. Drop batter in and even it out.

  9. 9

    Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until the toothpick inserted in the Middle comes out clean.

    Let cool a little before removing from pan and slicing! Serve warm as is, or topped with blueberry compote or the strawberry orange one in the pictures.:)
