GF Almond Flour Bread

I love bread as much as you.

I also really like feeling my best *most* of the time. I’ve learned that too much gluten can weigh me down, affect my mood, thinking, skin and digestion.

So I still indulge when I really want to; during those moments I take my time to really really enjoy the hell out of it.

That doesn’t mean I never eat bread on those days that I’m not indulging. It does mean that I make wiser choices and sometimes that involves rolling up the sleeves and turning the oven on.

This is a very simple mix-it-and-dump-it gluten free bread recipe void of gluten and yeast. It won’t rise much so expect a denser bread. I prefer this bread (and almost all gf breads) toasted.

GF Almond Flour Bread

2 1/2 cups almond flour, blanched
1/2 cup seeds (I used sunflower and pepitas)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, heaping
5 large eggs
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon white or apple cider vinegar

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper (see the image below).

In a food processor, pulse together the dry ingredients.
Add the eggs, maple syrup, olive oil and vinegar, pulse/blend until well combined, about 20 seconds, scraping down the sides as needed. The dough will be like a very thick batter, but should be thin enough that it doesn’t roll into a ball.

Pour dough into the parchment-lined loaf pan, the dough will fill about half way. Sprinkle with a few extra seeds if desired.

Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown. Test by inserting a toothpick; if it comes out clean from the center it’s done.

Remove from oven. Let it cool in the pan for 30 minutes before cutting. Wrap in foil and store in the fridge.
