Make the flax egg

• In a small bowl, mix ground flaxseed and water.
• Set aside for 8–10 minutes until it thickens.
• Lightly grease a microwave‑safe bowl with a little oil or spray.
• In a blender or food processor, add: Banana, oat flour, yoghurt, protein powder (if using), vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and the flax “egg”.
• Blend until smooth.
• If the mixture is very thick, add 1–2 Tbsp milk or milk alternative and blend again. You’re aiming for a thick, spoonable batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared bowl.
• Microwave on HIGH for about 90 seconds.
• If it’s still very wet, microwave in 30‑second bursts until just set.
• It should be soft and cake‑like, not dry.
• Let it sit for 1–2 minutes to cool slightly.
• Top with sliced banana or berries, a drizzle of maple syrup or honey, a spoon of yoghurt or nut butter, and a few dark chocolate chips if you like.
