Description

Imagine biting into a slice of wholesome bread, its texture a delightful balance of sturdy and tender. This isn't your typical loaf; it's a carefully crafted creation, free from gluten and wheat, yet boasting all the comforting qualities you crave. The secret lies in a blend of almond flour and psyllium husk, which, when combined with eggs and water, transforms into a dough that defies expectations with its impressive rise.

As you slice into the baked loaf, you'll discover a scattering of whole flax seeds and roasted sunflower seeds, adding a subtle nutty flavor and satisfying crunch to each bite. This bread is a celebration of simple, wholesome ingredients, perfect for those seeking a lighter alternative to traditional wheat-based options. The psyllium husk plays a crucial role in the bread's structure, acting as a binder that gives it the necessary elasticity and prevents it from crumbling.

It's an essential component that shouldn't be omitted or substituted, as it's key to achieving that desirable rise and texture. Allow ample time for the dough to rise; patience is rewarded with a beautifully airy loaf. While the rising time can vary, it typically falls within the range of 40 minutes to an hour.

Due to the inherent moisture content in gluten-free breads, a longer baking time at a lower temperature is recommended. This ensures that the bread is thoroughly cooked and avoids any unwanted gummy textures. Don't be afraid to extend the baking time if needed; overbaking is unlikely, and it's better to err on the side of caution to achieve the perfect crumb.

If you notice the bread starting to sink after removing it from the oven, simply pop it back in for a few more minutes to restore its puffiness. Serve this delightful bread with your favorite toppings. A smear of herb-infused butter, such as a vibrant tomato-olive-basil blend, or a creamy avocado butter adds a touch of indulgence.

Alternatively, keep it simple with salted butter or a generous spread of your favorite nut butter. However you choose to enjoy it, this bread is a welcome addition to any meal, offering a satisfying and flavorful experience.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat an oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. In a stand mixer bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, kosher salt, and baking powder. Add whole flax and sunflower seeds. No need to mix yet.
    2.
    Mix 1 cup of boiling water with apple cider vinegar. Using a paddle attachment on low speed, gradually add the water-vinegar mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined; the dough will be dense. Add the eggs all at once. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until the eggs are fully incorporated, about 1-2 minutes.
    3.
    Use a plastic bowl scraper to remove the dough. Wet your hands, shape the dough into a loaf, and place it in the prepared loaf pan. Bake immediately.
    4.
    Bake the loaf for at least 1 hour and 30 minutes. Keto bread is hard to overbake, so bake longer if unsure.
