Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease well.

  2. 2

    Whisk the ground flaxseed, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Add the hot water and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Stir quickly until a thick batter forms — the mixture will begin to react and thicken as you mix.

  4. 4

    Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

  5. 5

    Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top is firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
