Ingredients

  • 2 cups Almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 0.5 cup Water
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a little olive oil or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are foamy, then add the Greek yogurt, honey, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Mix well to combine.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gradually add the water, stirring continuously, until you achieve a thick but pourable batter.

Step 5

Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle the sesame seeds evenly over the top of the batter.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 8

Serve this nutritious almond bread with your favorite Mediterranean toppings, such as hummus, olives, or a fresh tomato salad.
