Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 0.5 cup ground flaxseed
- 0.25 cup whole chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup pumpkin seeds
- 0.25 cup sunflower seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to combine the dry ingredients.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, almond milk, and apple cider vinegar until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until everything is just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds into the batter for added texture and flavor.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula for even baking.
Place the loaf pan in preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
This Whole30 rye-inspired bread can be served as part of a nutritious breakfast or as a complement to any meal.
