Paleo Bread
- 1 cup smooth raw smooth cashew butter, at room temperature
- 4 large eggs, separated (mine weighed about 9 ounces in their shells)
- 12-2 tablespoon honey (use 2tbl if you plan to use if for sweeter dishes like french toast)
- 2 12 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 14 cup almond milk
- 14 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 12 teaspoon sea salt
- Preheat your oven to 300 degrees.
- For a white colored loaf as in the photo, place a small dish of water on the bottom rack.
- Line the bottom of an 8.5x4.5 glass loaf pan with parchment paper, then spread a very thin coating of coconut oil on the sides of the pan.
- Beat the cashew butter with the egg yolks, then add the honey, vinegar, and milk.
- Ive done this with both electric hand beaters and a stand mixer and both seem to work equally as well.
- I would not try to make this by hand due to the stickiness of the butter.
- Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl until peaks form.
- I used an electric hand mixer, but if you want a bicep workout, you can also do it by hand.
- Combine the dry ingredients in another small bowl.
- Sorry for all of the dishes!
- Make sure your oven is completely preheated before adding the egg whites and the dry ingredients to the cashew butter mixture.
- You dont want your whites to fall, and the baking soda will activate once it hits the eggs and vinegar.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, and beat until combined.
- This will result in more of a wet batter than a dough.
- Make sure to get all of the sticky butter mixture off of the bottom of the bowl so you dont end up with clumps.
- Pour the beaten egg whites into the cashew butter mixture, beating again until just combined.
- You dont have to be gentle with this, but dont over mix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, then immediately put it into the oven.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Dont be tempted to open the oven door anytime before 40 minutes, as this will allow the steam to escape and you will not get a properly risen loaf.
- Remove from the oven, then let cool for 15-20 minutes.
- Use a knife to free the sides from the loaf pan, then flip it upside down and release the loaf onto a cooling rack.
- Cool right-side up for an hour before serving.
- Wrap the loaf up tightly and store in the fridge for 1 week.
- I actually think the loaf gets better as the days go on.
