FAQs
Q: Can I use only almond flour?
A: No. Almond flour alone can make a loose bread. The coconut flour helps absorb moisture. Use the recipe amounts for best results.
Q: Can I replace eggs?
A: Eggs give structure. You can try egg replacers, but the texture will change and may be denser.
Q: Is this bread freezer-safe?
A: Yes. Slice and freeze. Toast or thaw slices when you need them.
Q: Can I add seeds or nuts?
A: Yes. Fold in up to 1/4 cup of seeds or chopped nuts before baking.
