Ingredients

• 1/4 Cup Flax Meal + 6 TBS Hot water (to make "flax eggs")
• 1 Tbs Applesauce
• 1 Large Egg
• 1 Tsp. Salt
• 1 1/2 Cup Flax meal
• 4 Tbs Coconut Flour
• 1/4 Cup Arrowroot or Tapioca Flour

Instructions

1. In a bowl combine the first 1/4 Cup of flax meal and the hot water. Mix until it thickens (this mixture is called flax eggs). Then Stir in the Applesauce, Egg and salt.
2. Pour in the remaining flax meal, Coconut flour and Arrowroot. Knead the dough until it becomes a nice cohesive well mixed ball . If it is sticky add a bit more Arrowroot.
3. Bring a pot of water to a boil.
4. Roll the dough out by hand as thin as possible in between two sheet of parchment. Using a sharp knife slice the dough into pasta. (Note: I had better results making this pasta by hand than using my pasta machine)
5. Place the pasta into rapidly boiling water and cook 15-20 seconds. Strain and serve warm. (Rinsing this pasta is optional- as it cools like most pasta does it may stick together a little bit if it is not rinsed, a little oil mixed in will also prevent this)
