This flour-free bread raises just like a traditional loaf... it's practically magic! Based on the recipe from Maria Emmerich.

Ingredients

3 cups almond meal 300 g
1 1/4 cup psyllium husks, very finely ground 90 g
4 tsp baking powder 10 g
1 tsp salt 4 g
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar 75 mL
6 egg whites 3/4 cup
1 1/2 cup water, boiling 375 mL

Before you start

Careful: Measure the psyllium husks before grinding them to obtain the right bread texture. If you use ground psyllium, make sure you have the right weight. You may need to grind it further.

A hand-held or stand mixer will make things easier for this recipe.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F. Oil a loaf pan or a cookie sheet, depending on the chosen cooking method. Set aside.
  2. In a bowl, mix together the dry ingredients.
  3. Add the vinegar and egg whites to the dry ingredients. Mix a few seconds using a mixer.
  4. Pour the boiling water into the bowl then mix well, using a mixer, until the dough thickens.
  5. Transfer the mixture into the loaf pan. Put the pan in the oven and bake for 75-90 min, until the loaf is golden-colored and the inside is well cooked. Alternatively, divide the dough into 16 rolls. Transfer the rolls to the baking sheet, then to the oven. Bake for 60-75 min.
  6. Let cool completely (at least 30 min), then slice.

Observations

Baking the bread in a loaf pan yields a denser texture, while baking the rolls on a baking sheet yields a fluffier texture.
