- Loaded with protein, carbs, fiber,omega-3 fatty acids, and B-Vitamins, these are a powerhouse of nutrients.

Amazing recipe will make it tomorrow… immense gratitude 🙏
Great, do share pictures and how you liked it 🙂
Should we use the soaked flax seeds and sesame seeds…as they contain phytic acid
Soaking flaxseeds in this recipe with give it a gel-like consistency and also since Omega-3 in them is sensitive to heat and air exposure. As for the sesame seeds, yes you can soak, pat dry and then roast them before adding it to the recipe.
