No Yeast | No Sugar | Low-Carb | Gluten-Free

Description

This quick bread-in-a-jar is soft, fluffy, and incredibly satisfying—made without white flour, yeast, or sugar. Using eggs, flax seeds, and psyllium husk, it creates a high-fiber, low-carb bread alternative that’s perfect for breakfast, sandwiches, or a healthy snack. Best of all, it’s ready in about a minute using the microwave.

Prep Time: 3 minutes

Cook Time: 1–2 minutes

Total Time: 5 minutes

Servings: 1 jar (1–2 slices)

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 cup (240 ml) milk (or unsweetened almond milk)

  • 2 tablespoons flax seeds (ground for best texture)

  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk (or psyllium powder)

Optional Flavor Add-Ins

  • Pinch of salt

  • Garlic powder or herbs (savory version)

  • Cinnamon (for breakfast-style bread)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Batter
    In a bowl, whisk eggs and milk until well combined.
    Stir in flax seeds and psyllium husk. Mix well and let sit 1–2 minutes to thicken.

  2. Prepare the Jar
    Lightly grease a microwave-safe glass jar or mug.
    Pour batter into the jar, filling no more than ¾ full.

  3. Microwave
    Microwave on high for 60–90 seconds, until the bread is set and springs back when touched.

  4. Cool & Serve
    Let cool for 1 minute.
    Remove from jar and slice or eat directly.

Notes

  • Psyllium absorbs liquid quickly—do not skip resting time

  • Texture improves as it cools

  • Best eaten fresh but can be refrigerated for 24 hours

Tips for Best Results

  • Grind flax seeds for a softer bread

  • If bread is too moist, microwave an extra 15 seconds

  • Use a wide jar for sandwich-style slices

  • Toast slices in a skillet for extra firmness
