Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, combine the chia seeds and water, and let them sit for about 10 minutes to form a gel-like consistency.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, extra virgin olive oil, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
Add the chia gel to the egg mixture and stir to incorporate.
In another bowl, mix the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Gently lift the bread out of the pan using the parchment paper, and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Paleo Almond Flour Bread on its own or with your favorite toppings!
