Ingredients
Almond Flour - 1/2 cup
Arrowroot Flour - 1/2 cup
Coconut Flour - 2 tablespoons
Sea Salt - 1 teaspoon
Active Dry Yeast - 2 teaspoons
Chia Seed - 1 tablespoon, finely ground
Organic Psyllium Husk Powder - 1 tablespoon
Maple Syrup - 1 teaspoon (this will be consumed by the yeast, which lowers the glycemic index)
Egg - 1 large (for egg wash)
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot flour, coconut flour, and sea salt.
2. Heat water to 105-110 degrees. Add 1 tsp of maple syrup and stir. Add the yeast and let stand for 10 minutes.
3. Stir the finely ground chia and psyllium powder into the yeast mixture. Let stand for 1 minute to thicken, then whisk.
4 Pour thickened yeast-chia mixture into the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon until thick and fully combined. The dough will be slightly sticky, but workable. Knead for 1 minute.
5. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
6. Divide the dough into 4 balls. Place dough balls on a square of parchment paper or cutting board. Dip your hands in water and shape into round shapes. Brush with egg wash.
7. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Please note- baking time can vary- the measure of doneness is the internal temperature of 205-210 degrees.
8. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Not allowing the bread to fully cool before cutting may result in a gummy interior. When completely cool, slice and serve or store in an air-tight container. To re-crisp crust, toast or reheat in an oven at 375 degress for 5-10 minutes.
