Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small loaf pan with extra virgin olive oil and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca starch, chia seeds, flaxseed meal, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk together until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Be sure these wet ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula until you achieve a thick batter-like consistency. The batter should be well-combined with no visible lumps of flour.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with the back of the spoon to ensure even baking.
Place the loaf pan on the middle rack of the oven and bake for about 45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice the bread and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
