Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 5 eggs
- 5 tablespoons olive oil (or melted butter or coconut oil)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Dry Ingredients
- 1¾ cups super fine almond flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350℉. Line an 8×4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal and an even bake.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Whisk in the olive oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The vinegar is crucial for proper rising.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the almond flour, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix thoroughly until the batter is uniform, thick, and free of lumps.
- Pour and Bake: Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, remove it and place on a cooling rack for an additional 20 minutes before slicing. Enjoy as a sandwich bread, avocado toast, or with honey and butter.
Notes
- Do not skip the apple cider vinegar; it helps the bread rise properly.
- Use super fine almond flour for the best texture; coarse almond meal can make the bread denser.
- You can substitute olive oil with melted butter or coconut oil according to your preference.
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- This bread is gluten-free and low in carbs, making it suitable for grain-free and ketogenic diets.
