Ingredients
- ½ cup coconut flour
- 4 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 tablespoon orange rind
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup boiling water
Egg Wash
- 1 medium egg, beaten can be optional and replaced with melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F degrees. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, add the coconut flour, psyllium husk powder and baking powder. Whisk lightly to combine.
- In another medium bowl, whisk the eggs.
- Add the Greek yogurt and whisk until combined and smooth.
- Add the melted butter and whisk in.
- Add the mixed dry ingredients to the bowl and stir well.
- Sprinkle the apple cider vinegar over the mixture and work it through. (This acts as an leavening agent with the baking powder).
- Add the orange rinds and work into the mixture.
- Gently pour the boiling water over the dough. Mix well and form into a dough mixture.
- Let the dough sit for 10 minutes for the psyllium husk powder to expand.
- Cut the dough into 3 even pieces.
- Roll out each piece into even log shapes.
- Place all 3 logs together on a flat surface and pinch the ends all together.
- Braid them into an even braid and seal the bottom ends together.
- Place the bread on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Brush with the beaten egg (or even melted butter) and bake for 10 minutes at 200C/400F degrees. Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/350F degrees and bake for 25 minutes until golden and firm.
- Remove from the oven and either serve warm or allow to cool before slicing.
