A simple paleo bread recipe using one of my favourite ingredients, coconut flour. Coconut flour is made from dried, ground coconut meat, an extremely fibrous and absorbent flour.
Nutritional goodness
This grain and nut free, protein rich bread is great as a base for an open sandwich, and goes hand in hand with a bowl of steaming soup. This recipe provides substantial amounts of fibre, thanks to the flaxseeds and coconut flour and Vitamin E from the sunflower seeds; helping to optimise digestion and skin health respectively.
Make your own
4 eggs
3/4 cup coconut flour
1/3 cup ground flaxseeds
1/4 cup coconut milk or any nut milk
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tsp Himalayan/sea salt
1.5 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary or thyme (leave a tsp for the the top)
2 tbsp sunflower seeds

- Add the dry to the wet ingredients, making sure there are no lumps.
- Spoon the mixture into a pre-lined loaf tin, sprinkle with the remaining 1 tbsp of sunflower seeds and some leftover herbs.
- Bake for 40 minutes (or until a skewer comes out clean).
