Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, turmeric, baking soda, and sea salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the melted coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and Paleo sourdough starter until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick, uniform batter forms.
Fold in the sunflower seeds, reserving a tablespoon to sprinkle on top of the loaf.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Sprinkle the reserved sunflower seeds on top of the batter for garnish.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
