Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Sunflower seed flour
- 0.5 cup Tapioca starch
- 2 teaspoons Gluten-free baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup Sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sunflower seed flour, tapioca starch, gluten-free baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the unsweetened almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil, and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms. Make sure there are no lumps.
Fold in the sunflower seeds for additional texture and flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
