An easy, grain-free almond flour bread recipe that is soft, fluffy, and perfect for paleo and gluten-free diets. This bread is quick to make and uses simple pantry ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Β½ cups (240 g) finely ground blanched almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Β½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 6 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil (or olive oil as substitute)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line an 8.5 x 4.5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy lifting.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking soda, and sea salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whip them using an electric mixer or hand whisk for 3-4 minutes until light, frothy, and slightly thickened.
  4. Add apple cider vinegar, melted coconut oil, honey (if using), and vanilla extract (if using) to the whipped eggs and mix gently but thoroughly.
  5. Slowly fold the dry almond flour mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula, being gentle to keep air in the batter. The batter will be thick but smooth and spreadable.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Optionally, sprinkle sliced almonds on top for decoration.
  7. Bake for 40-50 minutes, starting to check at 40 minutes by inserting a toothpick into the center. It should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Use the parchment overhang to lift the bread out and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Use finely ground almond flour for best texture. Whip eggs well to incorporate air for fluffiness. Apple cider vinegar helps with rise and tenderness. If bread is too moist after baking, tent with foil and bake 5-10 minutes longer. Cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling. Nut-free variation: substitute almond flour with sunflower seed flour. For dairy-free, use coconut oil or olive oil. Honey is optional for sweetness.
