Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, combine lentil flour, almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of the baking powder and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the four eggs until they are light and frothy. Add in the apple cider vinegar, water, and olive oil, mixing until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring consistently until a thick, uniform dough forms.
Transfer the dough into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure even baking.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve as desired. This bread pairs well with spreads, or as a base for sandwiches.
