instructions :
1. Prepare the Nut Mix:
- In a large mixing bowl, crack the 3 eggs and whisk them together.
- Add 1 cup of milk to the eggs and whisk to combine.
2. Add the Dry Ingredients:
- To the egg and milk mixture, add 2 tablespoons of flax seeds, 2 tablespoons of psyllium husk, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
3. Incorporate the Nuts:

4. Prepare the Loaf:

- Use a spoon or spatula to smooth the top.
5. Bake:

- Bake the loaf for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the loaf to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This helps set the texture and makes it easier to cut.
NOTES
- Add More Flavor: If you like, you can enhance the flavor with spices such as cinnamon or vanilla extract.
- Use Mixed Nuts: Feel free to mix and match different nuts to suit your taste or what you have available.
- Texture Adjustments: If you prefer a smoother texture, you can grind the nuts a little finer or omit some of the larger chunks.
