Ingredients

• 2 cups Almond flour
• 1 cup Ground flaxseed
• 4 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
• 0.25 cup Sourdough starter (low-carb-friendly)
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 4 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Warm water
• 3 tablespoons Coconut oil (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with coconut oil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground flaxseed, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, turmeric, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of all dry ingredients.

Step 3

Fold in the sunflower seeds, reserving a tablespoon to sprinkle on top of the loaf if desired.

Step 4

In a smaller bowl, whisk together the sourdough starter, apple cider vinegar, eggs, warm water, and melted coconut oil until smooth and combined.

Step 5

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms.

Step 6

Shape the dough into a loaf and transfer it to the prepared pan. Smooth the top with a rubber spatula and sprinkle the reserved sunflower seeds over the top.

Step 7

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan for about 15 minutes, then carefully transfer it to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Step 9

Slice and serve. This bread pairs well with fresh avocado, soft cheeses, or your favorite low-carb spread. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
