Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the melted butter and apple cider vinegar.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Divide the dough in half, mold each half into a baguette shape on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and firm to the touch. Let them cool on a wire rack.
While the bread is baking, cook the chicken. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
Cook the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until fully cooked through.
Remove from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing them thinly.
Once the bread has cooled, slice it lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each side of the baguette.
Layer each baguette with lettuce, sliced chicken, tomato slices, and cheddar cheese.
Close the baguette, slice in half, and serve immediately for a fresh and satisfying low-carb meal.
