Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups gluten-free 1:1 baking flour 280 grams
- 1 envelope highly active or instant yeast 2 1/4 teaspoons
- 1/2 cup almond flour 40 grams
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
Psyllium Husk Mixture:
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed meal 30 grams
- 2 teaspoons psyllium husk powder
Wet Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup butter or olive oil
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the dry ingredients and mix to combine.
- In measuring cup, combine the warm water, flaxseed and psyllium husk powder. Whisk until smooth and let sit for 1-2 minutes before adding to the dry ingredients.
- With the mixer running on low, add the psyllium husk mixture along with the eggs, honey and butter. Increase the speed to medium-high speed and beat for 6 minutes.
- Scoop the batter and smooth into a grease 9x5 pan. Let rise in a warm spot for 45-60 minutes. The bread will not double in size but should rise a few inches.
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Bake the bread for 35-45 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 200F on an instant-read thermometer or until the top is golden and seems firm when tapped.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool for at least another 20 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!

Notes
MAKE IT DAIRY-FREE: Substitute the butter for olive oil or oil of choice
This recipe will not work without the eggs, unfortunately.
RECIPE TIPS
- I recommend using a high, quality gluten-free all-purpose flour for gluten-free baking. For best results, pick a blend that contains xanthan gum or another binder.
- Be sure to carefully measure the dry ingredients so you get the right amounts.
- Bake the bread in a glass loaf pan. This helps it rise and brown properly.
- Let the bread rise for the right amount of time. If the bread rises for too long it may sink slightly in the middle once it’s baked.
