With a full cup of milled flaxseed, this banana flax loaf is slightly more bready and less cakey compared to your typical quick bread.

Flaxseed retains moisture, making this bread perfectly moist and delicious. This is a great example of how to use flaxseed to replace oil and eggs in baking.

Remember there is a difference between milled (or ground) flaxseed and flaxseed meal! Get yours here.

Serve it on its own or as a side with any meal.
