Why I love this recipe
Whenever anyone asks me what I recommend for gluten-free bread, I have a hard time coming up with a brand! A lot of them are filled with additives, preservatives, fillers, and inflammatory oils. My Paleo Garlic Herb Bread is easy to make, doesn't require yeast, and uses only a few simple ingredients like almond flour, eggs, and coconut milk! Not only is it healthy, but it also has the perfect "bread-like" consistency. I've tried other bread recipes in the past, but they required yeast or ingredients I didn't have on hand. This is the easiest recipe, and you probably have all of the ingredients in your kitchen already!
🍴Recipe Ingredients
- Almond Flour - I have not tested this recipe with any other flour combination. My favorite almond flour brands are Bob’s Red Mill, and Blue Diamond. Both have a finely ground blend that doesn’t come out clumpy! Make sure it’s almond FLOUR and not almond MEAL. They have completely different textures.
- Baking Powder + Baking Soda - Together these two ingredients help the bread to rise without yeast!
- Garlic Powder - This adds a nice flavor to this bread recipe.
- Dried Thyme - You could also use 1 tablespoon fresh thyme. (My personal favorite.)
- Salt - I use a little more than I normally would with a baked good because it's a savory recipe!
- Eggs - I would not reccomend swapping the eggs for a replacement.
- Coconut Milk - Any non-dairy milk will work with this recipe.
- Apple Cider Vinegar - This helps to activate the baking soda! Do not skip this ingredient. If you don't have ACV, you could swap for lemon juice.
🍴Recipe Instructions
Making the Dough
- Start by adding the eggs, coconut milk, and apple cider vinegar into a mixing bowl. Whisk until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl add almond flour, garlic powder, salt, thyme, baking powder, and baking soda. Use a whisk or spoon to stir together. (The whisk helps to break up the flour clumps.)
- Next, pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and fold together until the flour is absorbed.
Baking
- Pour the dough into a greased bread pan. (Ideally lined with parchment paper!) Bake at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes. You'll know it's done when the top is golden brown, and a toothpick comes out clean.
- When it's done, remove the bread from the oven, and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Then scrape around the edges, and use the parchment paper to pull it out of the pan. Place on a metal cooling rack for an additional 20-30 minutes. Slice and enjoy!
Helpful Tips
Once your bread comes out of the oven, it's important that it has time to cool and set. Place the pan on a metal cooling rack for about 45-90 minutes. When it has cooled for a bit, gently scrape the two narrow sides of the pan with a knife and pull it up with the parchment paper. Place it on the cooling rack, and pull the parchment paper out from underneath. If you leave it on the parchment paper too long, it will get soggy on the bottom. Once you've removed it from the pan you can slice into it! I usually let mine cool until it's at room temperature.
Frequently Asked Questions
Grease the edges, AND use parchment paper. Cut a piece of parchment paper that will fit in your loaf pan. (One long strip.) Lay the strip on the bottom of your baking pan, and press inside so it stays down. The coconut oil will help it to stick to the bottom and edges. Pour your batter on top. Make sure you leave enough parchment paper sticking up on either side so you can pull it out after it's done baking.
I would not suggest swapping out almond flour for any other flours. I have not tested this recipe with anything other than almond flour.
How to store leftovers
I usually store mine on the counter at room temperature the first day, and then I put it in the refrigerator. (I usually don't cover it so it doesn't get too moist!) It also freezes well! To freeze - pre-slice the loaf, and put in an air tight glass container.
