This low carb bread delivers a surprisingly soft and fluffy texture that rivals traditional bread, making it perfect for sandwiches or toast. It's an excellent staple recipe that proves you don't have to sacrifice quality when avoiding carbs.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x4 loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks and mayonnaise until smooth. Add the almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix until just combined. Stir in the apple cider vinegar.
In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form
Gently fold the egg whites into the batter in two batches. Use a spatula and fold slowly-don't stir or you'll deflate the air.
Pour into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake 35-40 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
You can brush the top with melted butter immediately. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing.
