Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper and coat it with cooking spray.
In a bowl or stand mixer, add the eggs, almond butter, oil and vinegar. Mix for 1 minute. In a second bowl, mix the, coconut flour, flax, hemp seeds, if using, baking soda, sea salt and stevia, then add to wet ingredients. Mix on low speed to combine. Pour into loaf pan. Bake for 34-38 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool in pan for 5 minutes, then remove by lifting up the parchment paper. Slice into 16 portions. Bread can be wrapped up and frozen.
Consider buying whole flax and grinding yourself; it lasts longer. Store in refrigerator.
This is a savory bread, even with the pinch of stevia. You could substitute another sweetener, or even 1 teaspoon of honey.
