Ingredients (8 generous slices):
* 1/2 cup (60g) finely ground coconut flour
* 1/4 cup (30g) almond flour (optional, for added structure)
* 2 tbsp (30g) psyllium husk powder
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp xanthan gum (optional, helps with texture)
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 3 large eggs
* 1/4 cup (60ml) melted butter or coconut oil
* 1/4 cup (60ml) unsweetened almond milk or heavy cream
* 1 tbsp (15ml) sweetener (Swerve, erythritol, etc.)
* 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
* Pinch of cinnamon (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a small loaf pan (8×4 inches) with parchment paper, letting the sides overhang for easy lifting.
2. Whisk dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together coconut flour, almond flour (if using), psyllium husk powder, baking powder, xanthan gum (if using), and salt. Set aside.
3. Beat wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter or coconut oil, almond milk or heavy cream, sweetener, vanilla extract (if using), and cinnamon (if using).
4. Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. The batter will be thick and sticky.
5. Fill the pan: Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
6. Bake to perfection: Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool and slice: Let the bread cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips and tricks:
* Coconut flour absorbs moisture quickly, so be careful not to overmix the batter.
* Feel free to adjust the sweetener to your taste. Start with 1 tbsp and add more if desired.
* For a richer flavor, toast the coconut flour lightly before adding it to the batter.
* Get creative with add-ins! Stir in chopped nuts, seeds, or berries for extra flavor and texture.
* Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for longer.
