Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ½ cup coconut flour
  • ¼ cup flaxseed meal
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tbsp caraway seeds
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp brewed coffee
  • 1 tbsp monk fruit sweetener or erythritol (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, flaxseed meal, cocoa powder, psyllium husk, caraway seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix in sour cream, melted butter (or coconut oil), apple cider vinegar, brewed coffee, and sweetener until smooth.
  4. Slowly combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick dough forms.
  5. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle extra caraway seeds if desired.
  6. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the top is firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Storage: Keep at room temperature for 3 days, refrigerate for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Psyllium Husk is Essential: It gives the bread a chewy texture. Skipping it will change the consistency.
  • For a Stronger Flavor: Let the batter sit for 10 minutes before baking to deepen the taste.
  • Best Served Toasted: Keto bread gets even better when toasted and topped with butter or cream cheese!
