Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, rye flour, baking powder, sea salt, and caraway seeds. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the baking powder.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add in the cottage cheese, olive oil, and water, and mix until well combined. The mixture should be smooth with no large cottage cheese chunks.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can affect the texture of the bread.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even rise.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes. The bread is ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the top is golden brown.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Lift the bread out by holding the parchment paper and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the bread into 12 even slices. Enjoy your low carb rye bread with your favorite spread or toppings.
