Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, caraway seeds, instant coffee powder, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the apple cider vinegar and melted butter. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick dough forms. Mix well to make sure there are no lumps of flour.
Gradually add the hot water into the dough while mixing. You should achieve a soft but firm batter.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula to make sure it is evenly spread.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice the bread using a serrated knife to avoid crumbling, and enjoy!
