I was curious about making a new bread recipe using yeast so I set out to do so. This is only my second attempt and I have to say I'm pretty happy with it! I hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups almond flour
2Tablespoons yeast
2Tablespoons tapioca starch
2Tablespoons psyllium husk
1cup warm water
1teaspoon honey or maple syrup
2Tablespoons stevia
1/4teaspoon salt
1Tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
NOTE - Before you start, this recipe yields one short loaf (think half as tall as a regular loaf pan), if you want a tall loaf double the ingredients and bake until cooked through, you can slice into the bread to see how it's doing.
In a bowl mix warm water, maple syrup and yeast.
Allow mixture to sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
In a separate bowl mix all dry ingredients.
When yeast mixture is ready, whisk once and add into a larger bowl where you will mix together all the ingredients adding the dry into the wet slowly.
Once well incorporated allow mixture to sit briefly while you grease a loaf pan.
Pour dough into pan, cut a slice through the top (just for looks and it helps to tell if the gread is cooked) cover and allow to rest in a warm place for 1-2 hours.
The dough won't rise much but it will get slightly puffier. Don't worry if you can't tell the difference, I only noticed a slight change in the pics that I took. (See under the recipe for pics)
Heat oven to 375 and bake bread for 40 min or until the "cut" looks cooked through.
I add a few ice cubes in the bottom of my oven for the last 5 minutes of baking. This helps the crust to get extra crispy.
Remove from oven and allow to cool completely in the pan before slicing.
This entire loaf disappeared in one night. My family literally inhaled it. It's good alone or topped with butter, nut butter, cheese, or any other topping imaginable. I think it would make good French Toast too!
Enjoy!
