Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup Almond Flour
  • 2 tsp . Baking powder
  • ¼ tsp . Cream of Tartar (optional)
  • ¼ tsp . Salt
  • 2 tsp . Sweetener , Swerve or Splenda (optional)
  • ½ tsp xanthan powder (optional)
  • 6 Eggs , large
  • ¼ cup Butter

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and spray glass or ceramic bread pan well with cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl stir all the dry ingredients, except the cream of tartar, together.
  • Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave and set aside.
  • Separate the yolks from the whites of the eggs.
  • Place whites in a medium mixing bowl. Set yolks aside.
  • Add cream of tartar to whites in the bowl. Beat whites until they are thick and glossy and soft peaks can be formed. Set aside.
  • Stir the butter and yolks into dry ingredients. (The batter will be very stiff.)
  • Put three spoonfuls of the whipped egg whites into the stiff batter and stir them in to ‘lighten up’ the batter.
  • Gently fold the rest of the egg whites into the batter, making certain not to whip it but stir to just combine the whites with the batter. The batter should be light and airy.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake at 350 degrees for 28-32 mins, until golden brown. Do not under-bake.
  • When the bread is finished baking, allow it to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. To remove it from the pan, the loaf may need to be loosened around the edges with a sharp, thin knife. Allow it to cool before slicing.
