Almond flour is a popular choice for those following a low-carb or gluten-free diet. It is made from finely ground almonds and is rich in healthy fats, fiber, and protein. Here are some benefits of using almond flour:

Low in Carbs: Almond flour contains significantly fewer carbohydrates compared to traditional wheat flour, making it ideal for keto diets.
Nutrient-Dense: Rich in vitamins and minerals, almond flour provides essential nutrients that support overall health.
Versatile: It can be used in various recipes, from bread to pancakes and baked goods, making it a staple in many kitchens.

To make this fluffy almond flour bread, you'll need the following simple ingredients:

Almond Flour: 1 ¾ cups of blanched, finely ground almond flour.
Eggs: 5 large eggs, preferably at room temperature.
Baking Soda: ½ teaspoon (or 2 teaspoons of gluten-free baking powder).
Salt: ¼ teaspoon of kosher salt.
Apple Cider Vinegar: 1 teaspoon to help the bread rise.
Fat: 5 tablespoons of melted refined coconut oil or unsalted butter for added flavor.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease an 8-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil (or butter), and apple cider vinegar until well combined.

In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, baking soda, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agent.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick batter forms. Avoid over-mixing to retain the fluffiness.

Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, slice and enjoy!

Room Temperature Eggs: Using room temperature eggs helps create a fluffier texture, as they incorporate air better than cold eggs.

Don’t Skip the Vinegar: The apple cider vinegar reacts with the baking soda to provide lift, so don’t omit it!

Check Your Oven: Baking times may vary depending on your oven. Start checking for doneness at around 30 minutes.

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days or freeze for longer storage. Slices can be frozen individually for easy access.

Toasting Enhances Flavor: Like many low-carb breads, this almond flour bread tastes even better when toasted. Spread it with butter or your favorite nut butter for a delightful snack.

With its nutty flavor and light texture, it serves as a great base for sandwiches, toast, or simply enjoying on its own.
