Makes 1 Loaf
Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond meal
- 1/2 cup arrowroot
- 1/4 cup golden flax seed (linseed) meal
- 1 tablespoon white chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda (baking soda)
- 1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
- 5 large eggs
- 1/4 cup macadamia oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (unpasteurised)
- 2 teaspoons raw honey
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 180. Lightly grease and line an 18 x 8 cm loaf tin with baking paper.
- Place the almond meal, arrowroot, flax seed meal, chia seeds, bicarbonate soda and salt in a medium bowl and stir to combine.
- Beat the eggs, macadamia oil, vinegar and honey together in a separate bowl.
- Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Spoon into prepared tin and smooth out to create a flat surface.
- Bake for 30 – 35 minutes, until golden brown and a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the centre to test. Turn out onto a rack and leave to cool completely. Slice as required!
Note: This Paleo bread can be wrapped and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Alternatively freeze for up to 3 months.
