Ingredients
- • almond flour: 2 cups
- • cooked and mashed sweet potato: 1 cup
- • eggs: 3 large
- • baking powder: 1 tablespoon
- • fresh rosemary (chopped): 1 tablespoon
- • fresh thyme (chopped): 1 tablespoon
- • salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • apple cider vinegar: 1 tablespoon
- • honey: 1 tablespoon
- • ground flaxseeds: 2 tablespoons
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, salt, rosemary, thyme, and ground flaxseeds. Stir well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- 3 In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and honey until smooth. Add the mashed sweet potato and mix until fully incorporated.
- 4 Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick batter forms. Ensure there are no lumps of almond flour left in the mixture.
- 5 Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 6 Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve as desired.
Serving Suggestions
- • This rustic bread pairs beautifully with a variety of toppings. For a savory option, try spreading it with avocado and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. For a sweeter touch, a dollop of almond butter and a drizzle of honey make for a delightful treat. Consider serving slices alongside a hearty vegetable soup or as a base for an open-faced sandwich topped with arugula and smoked salmon. Pair with a refreshing herbal tea or a glass of chilled white wine for a complete meal experience.
Storage Tips
Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, slice the bread and wrap individual portions in plastic wrap before placing them in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to two months, and thaw slices at room temperature or toast them directly from the freezer for a quick bite.
