  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp ground flax
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup

Toppings

  • fresh berries or other fruit

Notes

I used my mother-in-laws homemade orange and lemon bread for this and it was out of this world! When I don't have that, I like to use a thick and dense bread. :)
