Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup erythritol
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, baking soda, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. Add apple cider vinegar and unsweetened applesauce, mixing until smooth and uniform.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient mixture, stirring carefully to create a consistent batter. Mix until no dry lumps remain, being careful not to overmix.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure an even surface.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center - it should come out clean with no wet batter.
- Remove from oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, use the parchment paper to lift the bread out and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice into 12 even pieces. Optional: dust with additional cinnamon or a keto-friendly powdered sweetener for extra flavor.
Tips
- Always use room temperature eggs for the smoothest batter consistency.
- Make sure to whisk dry ingredients thoroughly to prevent clumping.
- Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to a dense, tough bread.
- Use parchment paper overhang for easy bread removal.
- Check doneness with a toothpick - it should come out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing for the best texture.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- For extra flavor, try toasting a slice and adding a thin spread of keto-friendly butter.
