Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon natural baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent
Wet Ingredients
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup Greek-style yogurt (plant-based), room temperature
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Grease a small loaf pan with some oil or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure smooth removal after baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine almond flour, natural baking powder, sea salt, and the natural gelling agent. Mix thoroughly to distribute the rising elements and gelling component evenly throughout the flour.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, then blend in the Greek-style yogurt (plant-based) and apple cider vinegar until the mixture is smooth and slightly airy.
- Combine and Stir: Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir gently but thoroughly until you achieve a uniform batter free of lumps but do not overmix as that could affect the bread’s texture.
- Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Spread evenly and bake in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean when ready.
- Cool Before Slicing: Allow the bread to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. This resting stage helps the bread hold its shape and enhances its texture for a perfect bite.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients for better batter blending.
- Do not skip the natural gelling agent to ensure proper bread structure.
- Measure almond flour precisely using a kitchen scale as density can vary.
- Allow bread to cool thoroughly before slicing to avoid crumbling.
- Store wrapped in airtight containers to keep the bread soft and fresh longer.
