Low Carb Bread

12 slices is 2-3 carbs

1 1/2 cup Almond Flour (I get mine on Amazon)
6 Large Eggs, separated
4 T Butter, Melted
1 T Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar
Pinch of Salt

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Take Egg Whites and whip them with the Cream of Tartar in a mixer until soft peaks form.
In a food processor add Egg Yolks, Almond flour, butter, Baking Powder and Salt, mix until combined.  It will be a lumpy thick dough until the whites are added.

Add 1/3 of the Egg white fluff, mix until combined.  GENTLY add the remaining Egg fluff until just combined.  You don't want to over mix it as this is what gives the bread it's volume.\

Bake for 20-30 minutes depending on the bread pan you use.  I use my french loaf pan, it longer and thinner than a regular pan and it cooks in around 30 minutes.  The toothpick test is how to tel if its done.

I like this bread for french toast (top with berries and cream), sandwiches, grilled cheese. eat with just butter or cream cheese.  It's nice to have a bread option for low carb.
