Preheat oven to 400ºF (204ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, mix the ground flax with water. Set aside to thicken.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and cinnamon. Mix well, then add in applesauce. Mash with a fork until it is broken up and distributed evenly. Add flax mixture and diced apple. Stir well until combined.
Transfer the dough onto your parchment-lined baking sheet. Use your hands to form a round shape, about 1 inch in height. Then use a large wet knife to cut it into 6 or 8 even wedges.
Sprinkle the top with a bit of sugar and cinnamon (optional) and bake for 25 minutes, or until edges are golden brown.
Remove from oven, let cool slightly and enjoy immediately.

Store at room temperature in an air-tight container up to 3 days, or freeze.

Serve with a little jam.
