Psyllium Husk Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
- 1/4 cup psyllium husk powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup warm water
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and set it aside.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, ground flaxseed, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil (or melted coconut oil), and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick dough forms.
5. Add Warm Water:
- Gradually add the warm water to the dough, mixing well after each addition. The dough should be thick but still pliable.
6. Shape the Dough:
- Transfer the dough to the greased loaf pan. Use a spatula or your hands to spread the dough evenly in the pan and smooth the top.
7. Bake the Bread:
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool and Slice:
- Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
9. Enjoy!
- Once the bread has cooled, slice it into thick slices and enjoy it plain or with your favorite toppings, such as butter, avocado, or almond butter.
Notes:
- Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
- Feel free to customize this recipe by adding herbs, spices, or seeds to the dough for extra flavor and texture.
- Psyllium husk powder acts as a binder and helps give the bread structure, making it an excellent gluten-free option for those with dietary restrictions.
