3 TBS ground golden flaxseed
2 TBS coconut flour
1/2 t baking powder
4 egg, separated
dash of salt/onion powder/pepper (optional flavorings)
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a medium-small bowl mix the dry ingredients - the golden flax meal, coconut flour, baking powder, and spices.
Whip the egg whites until fluffy. Slowly add the yolks, and then the dry mixture. Allow the dough to sit for 5 minutes to firm up. Spoon the dough into a greased "donut" mold (Click here for Amazon.com) or shape into bagels on a cookie sheet. Bake for 30 minutes until the flax turns a darker golden shade. Allow to cool in the oven. Craig loves his sandwiches made with these. Makes 6 bagels.
