Coconut Flour Keto Bread (Delicious!)

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup warm water ((75-80 degrees))
• 1 packet instant yeast
• 1 tsp sugar
• 6 eggs (room temp)
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 tbsp psyllium husks ((75-80 degrees))
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp xanthan gum
• 2 tbsp ground flax
• 3/4 cup coconut flour ((75-80 degrees))

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 100 degrees.
2. (This is your "bread proof" setting if you have one)
3. Grease a bread pan heavily around the bottom and sides with butter, ghee or refined coconut oil.
4. In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine: 1/2 c warm water (75-80 degrees),1 packet instant yeast, 1 tsp sugar (the yeast eats the sugar so the resulting sugar content is negligible)
5. Let sit for 5 minutes.
6. It should be foamy.
7. Meanwhile, in your mixer bowl.
8. Combine: 6 eggs (room temp) and 1/2 c olive oil.
9. With a flat or regular beater, blend until combined.
10. Add: 1 Tbs Acacia Fiber,1 tsp xanthan gum, 2 Tbs Ground Flax, 1/2 tsp salt, 3/4 cup coconut flour (108 g) and blend until combined.
11. Now add the foamy yeast to the egg & coconut flour mixture and beat for one minute.
12. Let rest for one minute.
13. Beat for one minute.
14. Repeat 3 times.
15. (This allows the yeast to incorporate into the dough)
16. Pour the keto bread dough into a greased bread pan.
17. Smaller bread pans will yield a taller loaf.
18. Using a bigger bread pan gets you a loaf in different dimensions.
19. Place in a 100 degree oven for 10 minutes to "proof"
20. Remove pan from oven and leave covered in a warm place in your kitchen.
21. Set your oven to 350 degrees.
22. Let bread dough sit covered on the counter for 20 minutes while your oven preheats.
23. Your bread should continue to "rise" and grow in size as the yeast performs it's magic.
24. Bake for 30 minutes.
25. Remove from the oven and set on a cooling rack.
26. Allow bread to cool completely (about 2 hours) before removing from the pan and slicing.
27. Store on the counter for 2-3 days or slice and keep in the freezer for a few weeks.
28. Recipe Notes Note: You can omit the ground flax if you wish.
29. Expect less of a rise and a little sweeter flavor to the finished keto bread.
