Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan lightly with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and poppy seeds. Stir until evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, granulated erythritol, and melted coconut oil until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until a thick batter forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice into 10 equal pieces and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze individual slices for longer storage.
