Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175°C).
Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Stir in coconut oil and vinegar until crumbly and uniform.
½ cup coconut flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon raw apple cider vinegar, ½ cup coconut oil
Beat the eggs and egg whites in a separate bowl.
4 whole eggs, 2 egg whites
Gently fold the egg mixture into the first bowl. Wait a minute or so for the coconut flour to absorb the liquid and begin to thicken.
Grease a 9x5-inch bread loaf pan or line with parchment paper. Pour batter into pan.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, until top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean after inserting into the center.
Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before taking out of the pan. Run a knife around the edge to loosen the bread from the sides.
Variations to try:
- Gently press in sunflower and pumpkin seeds into the top before baking
- Use coconut oil infused with herbs (an idea from The Ketogenic Edge Cookbook)
- Mix 1 teaspoon rosemary, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1/4 cup chopped olives into the batter
- Add 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes and 1 teaspoon thyme to the bread before baking
- If you like sweet bread, add 2 tablespoons of Lakanto (or another keto sweetener) with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
