    • ground flaxseeds
    • water

    Combine the ground flaxseeds with 90 ml water in the small bowl. Leave for 10 minutes until thickened.

  5. Sift
    • self-raising flour

    Sift the self-raising flour into the large mixing bowl. Stir in the ground almonds, baking powder, fine sea salt, and coconut sugar.

    Pour the olive oil and soya milk into the dry ingredients. Fold gently with the spatula until just combined.
