Almond Flour Bread (Keto)

294

I absolutely fell in love with this bread. I have recently tried to be more gluten free. Not because of any specific reason but have come to the realization that my body responds better to it. I have not eliminated gluten completely but overall, trying to introduce more healthy keto and low carb recipes into life.

This was a recipe we found online and just had to try. One of the hardest items to eliminate from a Greeks diet is bread. It was always on the table growing up. This bread is an amazing substitute. Super simple to make and really delicious when you ‘dress it up’.

A great tip for this bread is to slice and toast it in the mini oven. I used this for my sandwiches and loved it. We also had it with butter and honey and that was delicious too. Today I’m going to make myself an avocado toast.

Two key points to make about this recipe are make sure you incorporate the apple cider vinegar in the batter or else the loaf will not rise properly. Also, the recipe calls for an 8 or 8.5 inch loaf pan. I haven’t tried it with a 9 inch so I’m guessing the time might be a bit longer and the bread will come out a bit flatter in height.

I also want to include that the bread had an omelette type of smell (which is to be expected since there are 5 eggs included in the recipe) once it came out of the oven. It does go away once you let it cool and refrigerate it though. Store this in an air tight container in the fridge. You can also individually slice, wrap and store this bread in the freezer.

Best enjoyed sliced and toasted!
