Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup (120g) almond flour
- 1 teaspoon (5g) baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon (1.5g) salt
Wet Ingredients
- 3 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt
Optional
- Spices or herbs (e.g., garlic powder, rosemary, Italian seasoning) to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
- Prepare Wet Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy. Add the Greek yogurt and mix until smooth. If the yogurt mixture is too thick, thin it slightly with 1-2 tablespoons of water.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture with a spatula, mixing gently to preserve the light texture. Avoid overmixing to prevent dense bread.
- Add Flavorings: Fold in any optional spices or herbs you desire to add extra flavor to the bread.
- Pour and Smooth: Pour the batter into the lined loaf pan and smooth the top evenly with a spatula.
- Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the bread is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with aluminum foil for the last 10 minutes to prevent burning.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Make sure eggs are at room temperature for better mixing and rising.
- Adding 1-2 tablespoons of water helps adjust the batter consistency if Greek yogurt is too thick.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make loaf removal easier.
- Store leftover bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- This bread freezes well; slice and freeze for quick use.
