Unlike traditional bread, this keto coconut flour bread doesn’t need any yeast, and the ingredient list is very simple. Here is what you’ll need:

• Eggs. At room temperature.

How to make bread with coconut flour

The beauty of bread coconut flour is that even novices can make it taste like a pro. Just put a little effort, and the bread will taste heavenly. Ready to cook some up? Here you go! 

Step 1- Blend the dry ingredients. Start by adding the coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and psyllium husk in a large bowl and stir together. Add butter to the dry ingredients and stir until it gets crumbly. 

Step 2- whip eggs. Next, beat the eggs with an electric mixer until fluffy. It should take about 3-4 minutes. 

Step 3- Combine. Now, add the apple cider vinegar and water to the beaten eggs and mix lightly. Add the dry ingredients and beat with the mixture until just combined.

Step 4- Bake the bread. Now Your batter is ready to bake. Preheat the oven and line a small loaf pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and let it bake until the color gets brown. Now tent with foil and keep baking until a toothpick comes out clean.

Allow the bread to cool in the pan and lift it into a cooling rack.

Recipe tips and variations

• Ensure you fold eggs into the batter rather than stirring or beating while incorporating the eggs into other ingredients. This will make a smooth dough that bakes beautifully. 
• Wait for the batter to thicken a bit before baking. This is because of the absorbent qualities that coconut flour possesses. 
• Let the baked bread cool down to room temperature to avoid crumbling. 
• Add mix-ins like flax seeds, garlic powder, herbs, or other spices.

Storage instructions 

To store: Wrap the leftovers in parchment paper or in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. 

To freeze: Slice your bread, wrap individual pieces in plastic, and then foil. Now it is ready to freeze for 3-4 months straight.
