Tip
Chia seeds has 8 times more omega 3 than salmon, more importantly; chia doesn't contain cholesterol and toxic heavy metal components as fish and other marine or animal products.
Chia seed contains 5 times more calcium than milk.
Chia seed possesses 23 percent protein, this is higher than other traditional cereals such as wheat(13.7 %), corn(9.4 %), rice(6.5 %), oats(16.9 percent) and barley(12.5 %).
Comparing the fibre content of chia, it has 1.6, 2.3, 2.6, 8.3 and 9.8 times more fibre per 100 grams of an edible portion than barley, wheat, oats, corn and rice, respectively.
Comparing iron content of chia seed with other traditional iron-rich sources products, chia seed has 6, 1.8, and 2.4 times more iron per 100 grams of edible portion than spinach, lentils, and beef liver.
Chia contains high portion of antioxidants, and that makes it a very stable source of omega 3, and enables us to store chia seed and flour for extended periods of time without becoming rancid. Chia seed is also a good source of B vitamins.

Found this cake very dense. It wasn’t a hit in my family. Everyone else seemed to love it on here. Maybe I should try it again.
Delicious and easy! I didn't add icing and halved sugar as recommended in previous reviews. A hit with the family!
Very nice ... will be making this again ... Thank you
Hello, only thing ive changed is the flour. All else is the same and I use same recipe for TM5. I will be lowering the sugar though

I used to make this and saved the link. I had the recipe for the TM31. What changes did you make to the recipe? I'm sure you used plain flour? And I don't remember cooking the butter and sugar? loved the cake and want to make it again. Thanks
Wow, what an interesting cake! The chia seeds make it so filling! I cut back a bit on the sugar but would probably cut back even more next time..made it into cupcakes...delicious thanks!
Excellent recipe, thank you. Will definitely make it again.
Its very very yummy with lemon frosting. I made it with my Fake Thermomix and it turned out well. My husband ate about 5 slices in one go.
Really good. Love the lemon flavour, I made this with SR flour. Thanks for the recipe.
Just made this tonight and can't stop eating it. I used gluten free flour, and baked it in a slice pan for 35 minutes. I won't bother with the icing - it's nice enough without. Will definitely make again.
