Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180C (350 F) Mix chestnut, flaxmeal, psyllium, salt, & baking powder. In a separate bowl, combine egg, sweetener (if using), melted coconut oil, grapeseed oil. Slowly add drys to liquid, adding a little water if needed. Knead the dough briefly, working in a little white flour or additional chestnut flour until dough is workable. Grease rectangular baking tin. Roll dough out about 1/4" thick, trying to have it as thin in the center as on the edges. Place dough on tin. Brush with sesame oil if desired and sprinkle with sesame seeds or almond meal. Bake for about 15 minutes until it starts to brown around the edges. Remove, allow to cool, then cut into 2" squares. Recipe makes 20 or more squares depending on how thin you roll it.
