Calories: 173kcal
Equipment
- 1 loaf pan
Ingredients
- 3 eggs large, room temperature
- 1 cup light tahini 250g, must be runny
- ⅓ cup almond milk 80ml, room temperature ***see notes
- 1 cup almond flour 100g, or ground almonds
- ¼ cup coconut flour 30g
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F. Line a rectangular bread pan with parchment paper.
- Blend the eggs until fluffy, light in colour and double the size, about 2 minutes. Use an electric mixer or a food processor.
- Add the tahini and almond milk. Continue blending until a smooth batter forms.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the dry ingredients - almond flour, coconut flour, salt and baking powder. Then, add them to the wet ingredients and mix until well-combined. The batter should be sticky and spoonable. Add more almond milk to loosen the batter if required.
- Spoon the batter into the loaf pan. Smoothen the top with a spatula and top with sesame seeds. Option to score the batter with a knife lengthwise.
- Bake for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Check the crust after 45 minutes. Once it is golden, loosely cover the top with aluminium paper to prevent burning.
Notes
3.3g net carbs per slice. Makes 14 slices.
*** Increase the almond milk to ½ cup or 120ml if the batter is too firm. Reasons for firm batter: tahini is not runny enough or almond flour is super-fine.
Use room temperature ingredients to ensure a good rise and if possible, measure ingredients with scales.
I used a small 1 lb loaf pan. If you need to increase the amount of almond milk, consider using a regular size loaf pan. Oven time remains the same.
Let cool fully before slicing.
Store for up to 1 week in the fridge or freeze pre-sliced for 3 months.
