Easiest Low-Carb Bread
Yield: 12
Materials
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup psyllium husk powder (slightly heaping)
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup + 1/2 tsp coconut oil
- 1/2 cup warm water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 175*C.
- In a medium bowl, mix all dry ingredients.
- In a small bowl, beat eggs slightly with a fork. Then add the coconut oil and mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry until mixed well and dough starts to form.
- Add warm water and mix again. The dough will be fairly sticky.
- Place dough into the prepared loaf pan (either greased with the 1/2 tsp coconut oil or lined with parchmant paper) and form with a slightly rounded top. It's not necessary for the dough to be reaching the ends of the pan, as pictured.
- Bake for 75-90 minutes until top is VERY hard.
- Let it cool before attempting to remove it from the pan.
Notes
This is a slow cooking bread, so don't be afraid that it will burn. You want the top to be very hard before removing it from the oven. If you are unsure if it's finished, leave it for another ten minutes.
If you want the bread to be a bit "lighter" in texture, when you are mixing the batter, do it vigorously to create some air bubbles in the dough. This will give it a lighter texture. But make sure not to overdo it, or you will end up with holes in your slices.
This will freeze well in slices. I put plastic wrap between the slices to prevent them from sticky together so when I want one, it's easy to take one or two out at a time.
