Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca starch, ground flaxseed, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, baking soda, caraway seeds, onion powder, garlic powder, and sea salt. Mix until thoroughly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, coconut oil, honey, and cider vinegar together until well blended.
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. The batter will be thick.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer storage.
