Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 2 loaves
Ingredients
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ¾ cup xylitol powdered (I used my Nutribullet) divided -or sweetener of choice
  • 1 and ½ cups chopped nuts - pecans, almonds walnuts, hazelnuts (I used walnuts and hazelnuts)
  • 6 large eggs - separated - or 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar for yolks and liquid of 1 can chickpeas in place of egg whites
  • Cinnamon Topping:
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • ¼ teaspoon liquid stevia
  • 1 and ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
  1. In medium bowl whisk egg yolks and ⅓ of powdered xylitol together. If making the egg free version whisk the vinegar and ⅓ of xylitol together.
  2. Add in nuts and mix.
  3. In mixing bowl beat the rest of the xylitol with the egg whites until stiff peaks form. For the egg free version beat the aquafaba with the rest of the xylitol until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the nut mixture into the egg whites or aquafaba and lastly fold in the almond flour.
  5. Spray two small loaf pans with cooking spray.
  6. Pour dough into pans and bake at 325 degrees for 60-70 minutes. If you are making the egg free version it seemed to need an extra 20 minutes of baking.
  7. Let cool before taking out of pan.
  8. Cinnamon Topping:
  9. Mix the cinnamon and liquid stevia with the melted coconut oil in small bowl.
  10. Spoon a little of the cinnamon topping onto each piece as you serve it.
