Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Ground psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Warm water
- 2 Egg whites
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 1 teaspoon Nigella seeds
Instructions
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, ground psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm water, egg whites, and olive oil until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing continuously with a spatula until the dough forms. It should be slightly sticky, but manageable.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and then flatten into discs about 1/4-inch thick using your hands or a rolling pin.
Place the flattened dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each piece with sesame seeds and nigella seeds, pressing them gently into the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is firm and lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy the Keto Egyptian Baladi Bread warm or at room temperature as an accompaniment to your favorite dishes or dips.
