Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 1 cup coconut flour
• 0.5 cup arrowroot starch
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a sticky dough forms.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a surface lightly dusted with coconut flour. Shape the dough into a round loaf.

Step 6

Place the loaf onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a sharp knife to cut a deep cross into the top of the loaf.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 9

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
