1. Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sweetener.
Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy. If it does not foam, use fresh yeast and start again.
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together:
Almond flour
Coconut flour
Psyllium husk powder
Salt
Mix well to remove any lumps.
3. Prepare the Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together:
Eggs
Melted butter
Vanilla extract (if using)
Add the activated yeast mixture and whisk until smooth.
4. Form the Dough
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Mix thoroughly until a thick dough forms.
Let the dough rest for 5–10 minutes so the psyllium husk absorbs moisture and firms the mixture.
5. Shape the Dough
Grease a loaf pan well.
Transfer the dough into the pan and smooth the top with a spatula or damp hands.
Shape slightly rounded on top if desired.
6. Let It Rise
Cover loosely with a clean towel.
Place in a warm area and let rise for 45–60 minutes.
The dough will rise slightly but may not double like traditional bread.
7. Add Egg Wash
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix the egg yolk and water, then brush over the top of the loaf.
This gives the bread a glossy golden finish.
8. Bake
Bake for 35–45 minutes, until golden brown and firm on top.
If browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil during the last 15 minutes.
9. Cool Before Slicing
Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing.
This helps prevent a gummy texture.
