Flaxseeds contain a wealth of nutrients, but as whole seeds most of these nutritional treasures are locked away. Milling the seeds into meal gives your body access to the amazing nourishment stored within. Two tablespoons of Bob’s Red Mill Flaxseed Meal contains 1,700mg of Omega-3 (ALA) and 3 grams of fiber. Contains 4 grams of total fat per serving.
Flax is a great addition to many baked goods. Add flax seed to bread, pancakes, muffins, bars, cookies and other recipes for extra nutrition and a nutty flavor—just reduce the flour in a recipe by up to 25% and replace it with ground flax. You can also replace oil or shortening in a recipe with flax (substitute ground flax at a 3:1 ratio for best results). Using ground flax as an egg replacer in recipes for muffins, cakes, cookies and pancakes is easy: mix 1 tablespoon of flax seed meal and 3 tablespoons of liquid to create a flax gel that can replace each egg called for in the recipe. You’ll find more recipes and tips for flax seed meal in our recipe collection.
