ALMOND BREAD - NO GRAINS - NO FLOUR - NO GLUTEN - LOW CARB



Almond Bread - No Grains - No Flour - No Gluten - Low Carb image

I love bread but I know how bad ANY grain products are for human health. The problem is I love to eat sandwiches. Your body turns grain products into sugar and the more refined the faster it happens. So what was I to do??? I had to find a way to get all that good stuff (the meats and veggies) into my mouth without flour, without grains, without gluten and without the adverse effects of sugar and refined grains. And so I did... I stumbled upon this recipe and thought it deserved a place here on Food.com. It's a bread made from "Almond Flour", it's easy to make and is really pretty good. If you want to make a sweet cake type version of this, just add some extra stevia to sweeten it and use your imagination for various flavors... But, as is, it's a great substitute for bread for those who are cutting grains and sugar out of our lives... I hope you enjoy. One more thing.. in this recipe it calls for "Almond Flour". You can make it yourself by pulsing raw almonds in your Vita Mix

Valuable Tips when Making Almond Flour Bread Recipes

Almond flour bread is a healthy alternative to wheat bread. It is gluten-free, low-carb, and rich in nutrients. But making almond flour bread can be tricky. Here are some valuable tips to help you master the art of almond flour bread baking.
1. Choose the right almond flour
The success of your almond flour bread recipe depends largely on the type of almond flour you use. Almond flour is made from ground almonds. There are two main types of almond flour: blanched almond flour and almond meal. Blanched almond flour is made from almonds that have had their skins removed, resulting in a finer texture. Almond meal, on the other hand, is made from whole almonds and has a coarser texture. When making almond flour bread, it is recommended to use blanched almond flour. This is because it has a finer texture and will result in a smoother and fluffier bread. Almond meal can be used, but the resulting bread may be denser and have a nuttier flavor.
2. Add a binder
Almond flour does not contain gluten, which is the protein responsible for the texture and structure of wheat bread. Therefore, almond flour bread needs a binder to hold it together. Common binders used in almond flour bread recipes are eggs and xanthan gum. Eggs are a great natural binder and also add moisture to the bread. Xanthan gum is a food additive that is used as a thickener and stabilizer in many gluten-free recipes. It can be used in small amounts to give the bread a better texture.
3. Use the right leavening agent
Leavening agents are used to make the bread rise. In almond flour bread recipes, the most commonly used leavening agents are baking powder and baking soda. Baking powder is a combination of baking soda, cream of tartar, and cornstarch. It is used in recipes that contain acidic ingredients such as yogurt, lemon juice, or vinegar. Baking soda, on the other hand, is used in recipes that do not contain acidic ingredients. It is important to use the right leavening agent in your almond flour bread recipe to ensure that the bread rises properly and has the right texture.
4. Add moisture
Almond flour bread can be quite dry if not enough moisture is added. This is because almond flour does not absorb moisture like wheat flour does. To avoid dryness, it is recommended to add an ingredient that adds moisture to the bread. Common ingredients that add moisture to almond flour bread include eggs, yogurt, applesauce, and oil. Adding one or more of these ingredients will result in a moist and tender bread.
5. Let the bread cool before slicing
Almond flour bread is delicate and can crumble easily if sliced while still hot. To avoid this, it is recommended to let the bread cool completely before slicing. After taking the bread out of the oven, let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.
6. Store the bread properly
Almond flour bread can spoil quickly if not stored properly. It is recommended to store the bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 6 months. When storing in the fridge, wrap the bread tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out. When storing in the freezer, slice the bread and wrap each slice individually before placing in a freezer bag.
7. Experiment with flavors
Almond flour bread is versatile and can be flavored in many ways. Try adding herbs, spices, or cheese to your almond flour bread recipe to give it a unique flavor. Some popular flavor additions include garlic, rosemary, cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese.
Final thoughts
Making almond flour bread is not difficult, but it does require some knowledge and practice. By following these valuable tips, you can ensure that your almond flour bread turns out perfect every time. Remember to choose the right almond flour, add a binder, use the right leavening agent, add moisture, let the bread cool before slicing, store it properly, and experiment with flavors. Happy baking!
