The Best Grain-Free Gluten-Free Sandwich Bread

By verdungal Sunday, January 02, 2011

I found this wonderful recipe on "Life As A Plate " page on Facebook, to which I made a few minor changes

 

The Best Grain-Free Gluten-Free Sandwich Bread

 

What you need:

3/4 c. coconut ( I ground this until it was extra fine in a food processor)

1/4 c. chia seeds

2 tbsp arrowroot starch

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp.  black pepper

1/8 c. sesame seeds, optional

6 large eggs, beaten

1/2 c. melted butter

2 tbsp cream cheese or Greek yogurt

 

What you do:

Combine dry ingredients (except the 1 tbsp extra sesame seeds).

Combine beaten eggs, and cream cheese . Add melted butter. Fold in dry ingredients.

 

Line a 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper, then pour in batter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.

 

Bake at 350 for 35 - 40 minutes.  Cool on wire rack.

 

This makes 12-14 pieces. Approximately 2 grams of carbohydrates per slice.

Enjoy!

I'm going to add it to my collection of low carb vegetarian ideas for diabetics on FaceBook:

I've bought coconut and almond flours and savin' them for a baking project. This sounds like a great one to try... perhaps minus the arrowroot!
