Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Blanched almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 4 large Eggs
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.25 cup Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blanched almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs until they are well beaten, then add softened cream cheese, melted butter, and apple cider vinegar. Mix until smooth and no lumps of cream cheese remain.
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring thoroughly until a smooth dough forms.
Lightly flour a clean surface with almond flour, then turn the dough out onto it. Knead the dough gently to form a cohesive ball.
Divide the dough into two portions: one larger for the body and one smaller portion for the head and appendages.
Shape the larger portion into an oval form for the bunny's body and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Shape the smaller portion into a round ball for the head and smaller shapes for the ears, tail, and feet. Attach these to the body on the baking sheet.
Optional: Lightly brush the top with water and sprinkle sesame seeds over the bunny for an extra touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the thickest part comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before serving.
Slice and serve the Keto Bunny Bread warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your festive, low-carb creation!
