Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Wet Ingredients
- 5 large eggs
- 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon olive oil, melted
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, see notes)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a standard loaf pan by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, salt, and baking soda to ensure even distribution of the leavening agent.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs, then add the melted olive oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well until fully combined.
- Combine Mixtures: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until a thick batter forms with no lumps.
- Pour Batter: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top evenly with a spatula.
- Bake the Bread: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- If you prefer a slightly sweeter bread, include the tablespoon of maple syrup; omit it for stricter keto compliance.
- Make sure to use fresh baking soda to ensure proper rise.
- This bread is best stored wrapped in plastic or in an airtight container and can be refrigerated for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
- The addition of apple cider vinegar helps to activate the baking soda for better rise and texture.
