Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Whey protein powder (unflavored)
- 0.25 cup Ground flaxseeds
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, whey protein powder, ground flaxseeds, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, olive oil, water, and apple cider vinegar until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until a thick, homogeneous batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and enjoy as-is, or use for toast, sandwiches, or a side to your favorite meal. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
