This 90 second 1 serving “English muffin” is a great way to replace traditional bread when looking for alternatives. It’s quick to make and has only simple ingredients (almond flour, ground flax, egg, olive oil, almond milk (or water) and baking powder).
It’s also great if you want a piece of “bread” NOW but don’t want to take an hour to whip up a loaf.Â
This “English Muffin” is great because it tastes good and it’s customizable. Add herbs and spices or try different toppings – Top your English muffin with peanut butter and jam (try my One Jar No Sugar Peach Jam or my 3 ingredient No sugar Berry Jam), mashed avocado, just butter or a slice of smoked salmon or cheese.
Toast your English muffin for an even better tasting piece of bread.
Gluten free, grain free, dairy free, low carb. Diabetic, ketogenic and paleo friendly.
