Flax bars – uses for weight loss and recipes

October 27, 2022 by Valerie Kirwin

Flax is a plant that contains large amounts of omega 3 fatty acids, fiber, protein and other healthy and nutritious ingredients. Thanks to the flax seed, flax bars have a high nutritional value.

Also, a mixture of whole wheat, rye and other types of flour is an excellent choice of dietary fiber. Thanks to these fibers, flax bars improve digestion and speed up metabolism. If you introduce flax bars into your diet, you will no longer have problems with constipation or bloating.

Flax bars can help with weight loss, as they contain complex carbohydrates that are digested more slowly and will keep you fuller for longer. However, one should not exaggerate in quantity. Flax bars have a little less than 500 calories per 100 g, so they should be eaten in moderation. Two or three flax bars can be a great snack between meals. Be careful not to overdo it if you snack on them while watching TV, because these crunchy and tasty bars can be very addictive.

Flax bars - use for weight loss and recipes

Flax bars are ideal food if you want to lose extra pounds. Namely, they are best eaten instead of bread or pastries. Combined with yogurt, they are an ideal healthy breakfast. You can eat them with fresh vegetables or spread them with soy butter or soy paste, if you want to eat healthy. In cases where you are looking for something sweet, instead of standard caloric snacks, it is recommended to spread honey or jam on the flax bars. You can even eat them in combination with fruit. You can buy flax bars in almost any health food store, where they are bought by size, and there are also some in better equipped supermarkets, where they are sold in packages.

However, sometimes it can happen that the purchased linen tiles are too salty. That’s why the best option is to make them yourself. In the following, we will present some of the recipes for making linen tiles at home in a quick and easy way.

Recipe 1

Ingredients:

250 g of whole/buckwheat flour

250 g of rye flour

250 g of graham flour

250 g of a mixture of whole and white flour

50 g bran

50 g of sesame

50 g of flax seeds

1 teaspoon of sesame butter

2 teaspoons of salt

2 dl of olive oil

1 dl of yogurt

½ teaspoon of baking soda

Way of preparation:

Mix all types of flour, then add baking soda and salt, and gradually add the rest of the ingredients. Add lukewarm water and knead the dough, then divide it into 3 parts and cover with a cloth. Let the dough rest for about 10 minutes, then roll it out and cut it into rectangles. Arrange them in a pan that you have previously greased with oil. After ten minutes of baking, remove the tiles and let them cool, then store them in cellophane in a cardboard box.

Recipe 2 (Chrono Flax Bars)

Ingredients:

100 g of whole wheat or spelled flour

100 g of rye flour

50 g oat flour

30 g oat bran

1 tablespoon of Ceylon cinnamon

2 tablespoons of sunflower butter

100 g of flax

2 spoons of sour milk

A little sesame

½ baking powder

1 teaspoon of salt

Way of preparation:

Mix all the dry ingredients first, then add sour milk and lukewarm water, until you get a mixture of the desired consistency. Then, roll out this dough and place it in a pan lined with parchment paper. Cut the dough into rectangular pieces of equal size. Bake the flax bars for about 15 minutes in a preheated oven.

500 g of wholemeal flour

250 g of margarine

2 dl of white wine

1 dl of oil

1 baking powder

100 g of flax

100 g of sesame

2 teaspoons of salt

Way of preparation:

Beat margarine and add flour, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flax, baking powder and salt. Pour wine and oil over the mixture and knead it. Leave the dough in the refrigerator for about half an hour and then roll it out so that it is 2 mm thick. Cut it in the shape of tiles and bake it in a baking tray that you have previously greased.

Recipe 4

Ingredients:

100 g of wholemeal flour

200 g of graham flour

100 g of rye flour

100 g of rice flour

50 g of sesame

50 g of flax

1 dl of olive oil

1 dl of yogurt

If you want thicker tiles, bake them for about 15 minutes, and if you want them to be thinner, bake them for a maximum of 10 minutes.
