JUNIPER'S FLAX GARLIC ONION FLATBREAD
3 tablespoons flax meal, golden if possible
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch onion powder
Pinch garlic powder
Pinch salt, go easy on it
1 tablespoon butter
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
In a small bowl, combine the dry ingredients. In another small microwaveable bowl, melt the butter. Add the egg and water; beat with a fork until well blended. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and beat well with the fork. Pour into a greased 9 or 10" glass pie plate. Spread the batter to cover the bottom of the pan. Microwave on HIGH 1 1/2-3 minutes, until cooked through but still pliable. You can reheat it in the microwave briefly if it gets too stiff. Use like a pita, wrap or tortilla.

This is very easy to make in just a matter of minutes. My friend tweaked Juniper's recipe slightly by using an extra 1/2 tablespoon of flax meal so that's what I did. Juniper called for a jumbo egg, but a large one worked fine. I made mine in a 9-inch pie plate and I think it came out a little too thick to use as a wrap. I think I'll try a 10-inch pie plate next time. The consistency is a bit like a great big pancake. In fact, I bet if you left out the spices and salt you could make a pretty nice low carb pancake. Mine cracked a little when I folded it over which is another reason I think it could have been a little thinner. Here's a picture of it folded over so you can see part of the other side:
