blender bread (grain free)




today i have a little something for you that may just blow your mind with the ease and simplicity of it. i call it blender bread.
if you know me you know how much i love my blender, and how often i use it. so naturally i have a tendency to make anything and everything in it!
this bread is grain free, gluten free, and paleo- if you're into that sort of a thing, you will love it. no, i am not against grains at all. but sometimes it is good to switch things up with a grain free option, especially when you don't have the time to properly prepare your grains and make a fancy bread. i am the worst bread maker ever-i fail every time. so this recipe is literally fail-proof because it works for me every time! 
other huge pluses are the extremely high protein to carbs ratio, the literally perfect texture, cuts like buttah and the taste is creamy and lovely. i think you will enjoy it!







ingredients:


ghee or coconut oil for greasing pan
8 large organic eggs
½ cup nut milk
4 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
3 cups whole raw cashews
7 tablespoons coconut flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon sea salt

-place a dish filled with 2 inches of water on the bottom rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 325 ° F. lightly grease the inside of a large loaf pan with ghee or oil and press a piece of parchment paper into the bottom with flaps that hang over the sides of the pan. place all of the ingredients in a high-speed blender and process until very smooth. if batter is too thick to blend, add up to 2 tablespoons of water until it is moving easily through the blender. transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center returns clean. allow the bread to cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then gently remove the loaf using the parchment overhangs and allow to cool on a wire rack before serving or storing. store the loaf tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. 

-i enjoyed mine toasted with a little ghee & cinnamon/lakanto sugar sprinkle. i have also made numerous delicious sandwiches and am thinking i'll try either stuffing, bread pudding or french toast next!
