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

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F. Line a rectangular bread pan with parchment paper.
  2. Blend the eggs until fluffy, light in colour and double the size, about 2 minutes. Use an electric mixer or a food processor.
  3. Add the tahini and almond milk. Continue blending until a smooth batter forms.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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

  • 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.
