I am not a fan of bread, I like most salty crackers, and if I want some slices, I prefer a toasted French one.

There are days that I am craving bread, and I go for it but I prefer making it on my own.

This recipe is very easy to do, is savory and spongy, and does not break easily, also is paleo-friendly, gluten-free, and grain-free, loaded with quality fats, and gluten-free flours, and provides energy, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals that keep your well-being in general. I changed part of the recipe and it worked very well.

I add nutritional yeast to give it a light cheesy flavor and increase the health benefits of this bread because it provides vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, folic acid, fiber, and protein with 9 amino acids, probiotics, carbohydrates, calories, sodium, selenium, and zinc.

What is Nutritional Yeast?

Is an inactive yeast, that grows over the mix of beet molasses and sugar cane, when the fermentation is done, is collected, washed, and dried at high temperatures to stop this process, that´s why it is inactive.

You can find it in the markets and can come in flakes, powder, and granules.

It has a nutty-cheesy taste.

It´s recommended for athletes, vegans, and convalescent persons. 

Health Benefits of Nutritional Yeast:
  • Improves overall body health
  • Assists in pregnancy.
  • Aids digestion and diarrhea symptoms.
  • It has antibacterial and antiviral properties.
  • Nurtures the skin, hair, and nails.

I found it on Otto's Natural website, I did it with ground blanched almonds instead of almond meal, and I really like the easy way it is made also, full of proteins, vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats to name some that I will be one of my preferred loaves of bread to have on hand.

Total Time: 50 min.


Ingredients:                                                                                    

  1. 1 cup sifted cassava flour                                                 
  2. 1 cup fine almond flour, or almond meal)
  3. 1/4 avocado oil or olive oil.
  4. 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
  5. 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  6. 6 eggs
  7. 3 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup
  8. 1/2 teaspoon of Himalayan salt
  9. 1/4 cup nutritional yeast (optional)
    Instructions:
             
    Preheat the oven to 350 F.                                                          

    Throw the dry ingredients in the food processor and pulse 2-3 times to combine. You can do it also with a spatula, separating the dry ingredients from the wet, in a bowl, mix the dry ingredients well.

    In another bowl add the eggs, oil, salt, and vinegar beat to incorporate them together, pour them over dry ingredients on the food processor, and blend them together.

    If you do it manually, whisk the wet ingredients and then, throw over the dry ingredients to combine them. (the consistency of the batter will be runny, more than other bread recipes)

    Toss into a greased loaf pan 8x5 inches.

    Bake for 40-50 minutes (depending on your oven).

    Enjoy! with butter, mayo, as a sandwich, toasted, etc.

    Notes: If you don´t want the honey, add only 1 tablespoon of maple syrup to it.
    Adding 3-4 tablespoons more of honey, and a teaspoon of vanilla you will have savory, and sweet bread.
