Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil. This usually takes about 20-30 seconds in the microwave. Allow it to cool slightly while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and beat them until they are frothy and well combined. This will help incorporate air, giving your bread a lighter texture.
In another bowl, sift together the coconut flour, whey protein powder, and a dash of salt to ensure they are evenly distributed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the beaten eggs, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Add the melted coconut oil and continue to mix until you have a smooth, thick batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once fully cooled, slice the bread into pieces and serve. Enjoy it plain, or with your favorite toppings like nut butter or a little extra coconut oil.
Tips:
- Ensure that the coconut oil is melted but not too hot before mixing with the eggs to prevent curdling.
- Sift the coconut flour before measuring to avoid clumps and get the most accurate measurement.
- Let the batter sit for a few minutes after mixing to allow the coconut flour to absorb the liquid fully.
- If the batter is too thick, you can add a small amount of water or milk to reach the desired consistency.
- Use a non-stick loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing for the best texture.
