Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, apple cider vinegar, and warm water until fully incorporated.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly to form a dough. Let the dough sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
Shape the dough into an oval loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
For the Dutch crunch topping, combine the unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder, sesame seeds, olive oil, dry yeast, and Swerve sweetener in a small bowl. Add a few teaspoons of warm water to form a thick paste.
Spread the cocoa-sesame paste evenly over the top of the dough using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is crispy and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
