I'm sure they would make a great substitution.

Thanks for the recipe. Is there a substitute for the flaxseed? I have some but have not checked to see if it is still fresh enough to use. I do have hemp see, though. Just wondering.

I'm not sure where to post the weekly recipe to participate in the team challenge. So here it is until someone tells me where it should be. ;)

Today I made the Basic Biscuits from the Wheat Belly Cookbook.

1 cup almond meal/flour
1 cup ground golden flaxseed
4 t baking powder
4 T cold butter
4 egg whites (I substituted 2 whole eggs)

Mix dry ingredients. Cut in butter. The recipe suggests whipping the egg whites, but since I used whole eggs I just beat them lightly with a fork and mixed them into the flour mixture. Divide into 8 portions on parchment lined baking pan. Flatten each biscuit.

Bake at 350 degress for 15 minutes.

Note: I used a Whoopie Pie pan greased with coconut oil.

So quick and easy!!! Very tasty!!! And packs a great dose of fiber.

p.s. Hello Everyone, I'm new to this group. :D
