Ingredients
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 2 cups finely ground flaxseed
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp fine salt
- 6 eggs beaten
- ½ cup water
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or low calorie brown sugar for keto/ low carb
- 1/2 tsp fleur de sel
- 1 sprig rosemary minced
- 1 cup red grapes halved (optional for keto)
- 1 cup kalamata olives pitted and halved
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a sheet pan with a piece of parchment paper or a silpat.
- In a small saucepot, heat the olive oil and the two sprigs of rosemary until simmering over low heat for 10 minutes. Carefully remove the rosemary sprigs and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flax, baking powder, and salt until combined. Add in the beaten eggs, water, maple or other sweetener, and 1/3 cup of the rosemary olive oil. Allow to sit for 15 minutes to thicken.
- Transfer to the baking sheet and spread out about an inch in thickness, making sure to leave at least an inch from the edge of the pan.
- Top with the grapes (cut side down), olives (cut side down) and rosemary pieces. Carefully brush the top of the dough with about a tablespoon of the rosemary olive oil and sprinkle with fleur de sel.
- Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the dough feels springy and dry on top. Allow to cool for at least 15-20 minutes before cutting into slices.
