Flaxseed

Nut and Seed Products

Small, nutrient-dense seeds rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. Ground flaxseed is used as an egg substitute, a binder in baking, and a nutritional booster.

Chia Seeds

1:1

Same gel-forming ability when mixed with water (1 tbsp chia + 3 tbsp water = 1 flax egg). Slightly milder flavor. Perfect egg substitute and binder.

✅Best for: baking, egg substitute, smoothies

Wheat Bran

Adds similar fiber and earthy flavor to baked goods. Does not bind like flaxseed — pair with an egg or chia gel for structure.

Nutritious wheat germ adds similar nutty flavor and health boost. Use as a topper or mix into doughs, but it won't form a binding gel.
