Paleo Bread

I decided to go on a Paleo diet since I am facing some health challenges. So far so good  but I certainly like to have a BLT for example and here is the trick...How do you substitute the bread?1 I've been gluten- free for quite a long time and making gluten-free bread is not anymore such  big deal. But how do you make grain-free bread?! Of course there is a Paleo bread available at the health food store but honestly, it did not win me. So I started to search for recipes , experimenting etc. This is by far the best recipe in my opinion for a Paleo bread. The recipe is by Rebecca Bohl fom Paleo Grubs .
What I loved mostly was the simplicity of it and the no -need of doing any changes to adapt it to the high altitude in Colorado.


Ingredients :

3/4 cup almond butter
5 eggs
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup ground flaxseed meal
3 tbsp coconut flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, blend the almond butter, eggs, coconut oil, honey, and apple cider vinegar together with a hand blender.
In a separate bowl, mix together the flaxseed meal, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
Pour the dough into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes until browned and completely set. Remove from the oven and allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for one week.
You can also freeze it.
