Serve it warm with butter or alongside your favorite soups and salads for a wholesome, low-carb meal. Ideal for those following a ketogenic or gluten-free diet, this bread is a must-bake for anyone craving comfort and tradition without the carb-loaded guilt.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly with butter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, flaxseed meal, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate smaller bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Then add the apple cider vinegar, melted butter, and unsweetened almond milk. Mix until fully combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently until a thick dough forms. Let the dough rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the psyllium husk and flaxseed to absorb the liquid and thicken further.
Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula and, if desired, score the top with a knife for a more traditional appearance.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve slices with butter or pair with your favorite keto-friendly soups or stews. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
