Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.25 cups Warm water
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk well to ensure even distribution.
Add olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until crumbly.
In a separate bowl, mix the warm water with apple cider vinegar.
Gradually add the water mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a dough forms. The dough should be moist but not sticky.
Divide the dough into eight equal portions and shape each into a ball.
Flatten each ball into a round disc, approximately 1/4 inch thick, using your hands or a rolling pin.
Place the discs onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let the bread cool for a few minutes before serving.
