Notes

*To make a flax egg: In a small dish, combine 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed with 2 1/2 tablespoons of water. Stir well, and place in the fridge to set for ~10 minutes. Please note, if multiplying this recipe to serve a crowd, you do not need to make each flax egg individually.
**To make your own oat flour: Blend old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats (ensure they are certified gluten free, if needed) in a food processor or blender until they are ground into a fine flour; 1 cup of oats makes 3/4 cup of oat flour.
Tip! Flax seeds contain oils that are extremely perishable. Store flax seeds in the refrigerator or freezer, especially once they are ground, to prevent oxidation and spoilage.
