Ingredients

• 1 large cucumber
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 tablespoon coconut flour
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup full-fat coconut cream
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chives
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

Beat the eggs lightly in a small bowl, then add them to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the dough onto the sheet, forming a thin rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

Bake for 10-15 minutes, until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely.

Step 6

While the bread cools, peel the cucumber and slice it thinly into rounds.

Step 7

In a separate bowl, mix the coconut cream, lemon juice, chopped dill, chopped chives, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 8

Once the bread is cool, cut it into small squares or triangles, about 2x2 inches each.

Step 9

Spread a small amount of the coconut cream mixture onto each bread piece.

Step 10

Top with a cucumber slice, and if desired, garnish with a small sprig of dill.

Step 11

Serve immediately, or store in the fridge for up to 2 hours before serving.
