Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 200g / 2 cups blanched almond flour
- 60ml / ¼ cup coconut oil (measured solid, then melted)
- 28g / ¼ cup psyllium husk powder
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 120ml / ½ cup warm water
Instructions
- Oven Preparation: Heat oven to 180°C / 350°F and line loaf pan bottom with parchment paper for seamless bread removal.
- Egg Whipping: Employ hand mixer to transform eggs into a voluminous, light, and airy mixture that dramatically increases in size.
- Dry Ingredient Fusion: Combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and sea salt in a large bowl, whisking thoroughly to create an even, well-integrated blend.
- Batter Formation: Delicately fold dry ingredients into whipped eggs, maintaining the fragile air pockets while creating a smooth, consistent batter.
- Liquid Integration: Gently incorporate melted coconut oil and warm water, blending until the mixture achieves a uniform consistency.
- Pan Transfer and Shaping: Carefully pour batter into prepared loaf pan, using a spatula to distribute evenly and create a slightly rounded surface.
- Baking and Finishing: Bake for 55-70 minutes, watching for a golden-brown crust and confirming doneness with a clean toothpick test. Allow bread to cool completely within the pan to stabilize its structure and optimize texture before slicing.
Notes
- Egg Whipping Technique: Vigorously whip eggs until they become light and voluminous, creating a crucial foundation for the bread’s airy texture and structure.
- Dry Ingredient Precision: Sift and whisk dry ingredients thoroughly to prevent clumping and ensure even distribution, which is critical for consistent bread quality.
- Moisture Balance: Add warm water and melted coconut oil gently to maintain the delicate air bubbles created during egg whipping, preserving the bread’s light consistency.
- Baking Time Vigilance: Monitor baking closely between 55-70 minutes, checking with a toothpick for doneness and watching for a golden-brown crust to prevent over or undercooking.
