Introduction

In a fast-paced world, finding a healthy, homemade bread alternative can be challenging — especially if you’re avoiding white flour, sugar, and yeast. This “Bread in a Jar in a Minute” recipe is a game-changer. Made with eggs, milk, flaxseeds, and psyllium husk, it’s rich in fiber, protein, and healthy fats. This recipe offers the comfort of bread with the convenience of a mug cake — but with none of the guilt.

Ingredients (Single-Serve Jar Bread)

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup (240 ml) unsweetened milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 2 tablespoons whole or ground flaxseeds
  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk
  • Optional: pinch of salt, pinch of baking powder, herbs, or spices like rosemary or garlic powder

Multiply the recipe by 4 or 6 to prepare a batch mix stored dry, adding eggs and milk when ready.

Instructions (Single Jar)

  1. Prepare the Jar: Lightly grease a 16-ounce microwave-safe jar or mug.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully blended.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in flaxseeds and psyllium husk. Add a pinch of salt or any spices, if using.
  4. Let It Rest: Allow the mixture to sit for 2–3 minutes so the psyllium and flax can absorb the liquid and thicken.
  5. Microwave: Microwave on high for 60–90 seconds, depending on the power of your microwave. The bread should rise and feel firm to the touch.
  6. Cool & Serve: Let cool slightly. Slide out of the jar and slice, or eat it straight from the jar!

Method Variations

  • Oven Method: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12–15 minutes if you prefer not to use a microwave.
  • Savory Add-ins: Mix in herbs, cheese, or chopped nuts.
  • Sweet Version: Add cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a natural sweetener like stevia.

History of Quick Breads

Quick breads gained popularity in the 19th century with the rise of baking soda and powder. Unlike traditional yeast breads, they could be made instantly without fermentation. Mug breads evolved later with the microwave era, making it possible to have fresh, hot bread in under 5 minutes. This recipe is a modern, health-conscious evolution of that tradition.

Benefits

  • No White Flour: Low glycemic, gut-friendly, and grain-free.
  • No Sugar or Yeast: Ideal for keto, low-carb, or candida diets.
  • Rich in Fiber: Psyllium husk and flax improve digestion and promote satiety.
  • Quick & Convenient: One-minute prep, one-minute cook — no mess, no oven.
