Bread (?)
Mr. Coach enjoys cooking as much as Coach Loli. There are a few keto friendly biscuits floating around the web and social media so, of course, this crazy health conscious couple tried them.
In an effort to make them better and in Coach Loli's case, egg and dairy free, Mr. Coach has had the test kitchen open for business. This morning was a complete success! Mr. Coach tweaked and re-tweaked until the biscuit came out just the way he wanted it to.
This recipe was tested on three very willing fellas doing some work on the Coach's house. All agreed that the biscuit was delicious.

Ingredients
- 1/2 Tablespoon Ground Chia Seed
- 1/2 + 1 1/2 Tablespoons Flax Meal

- 1 1/2 Teaspoons of grain-free Baking Powder
Instructions
- Combine 1/2 Tablespoon of the Ground Flax and Ground Chia Seeds with the water. Combine it in your favorite bullet style blender or any small blender. You're looking for a gluey consistency.
- In a bowl or mug (we use the same one that's going in the microwave shortly) bring together all remaining ingredients except the Baking Powder. Once combined, add the gluey mixture from your blender and combine thoroughly.
- Now, sprinkle the Baking Powder over your wet dough and fold it in. Try to use as few strokes as possible - and try to work quickly. You don't want to pop the bubble and release the gas created by the Baking Powder.
- Gently ensure that the mixture is somewhat evenly distributed in your bowl or mug. Pop the works in the microwave and let it go on full power. Our bowl in our microwave seems to want about 4:30 minutes but take care to pay attention to how yours comes along. Variability in humidity, the amount of water used, how much heat your bowl absorbs, etc, etc can all affect the time required.
- The result is similar to a whole grain english muffin. Split it carefully and spread your favorite butter on it or maybe some cheese or....
