If you have ever stood in the kitchen, stared at a bag of chia seeds and a glass of hemp hearts and ask yourself what to do with you all over the world, that’s it.

This bread is soft, hearty and perfect for everyone on a keto diet or only for a healthier option. And the best thing about it?

It is not one of these keto bread bread “tastes like cardboard”. This has a real taste, a little crunch, and it sticks together like real bread.

I want you to imagine the following: you pull a fresh loaf out of the oven, the smell of warm, nutty quality that fills the air. They cut in and instead of crumbling apart, it remains firm, ready for butter, jam or everything they have in the mood. We do that today.

Why Chia and hemp?

I know that these two ingredients sound as if they belong to a smoothie, not in a bread ray. But trust me. Chia seeds and hemp hearts are packed with healthy fats, fiber and protein. They help the bread a great texture without making it dry or difficult.

• Chia -seeds Sub by fluid and look like a natural binder (like eggs when baking). As a result, the bread will not fall apart and gives a nice chewing.
• Hemp Have a mild, nutty taste and add a soft texture. They also bring in additional protein and healthy fats and make this bread more filling.

What you need for this hemp bread

This recipe simply keeps things – no strange ingredients or things you use once and forget in the back of the pantry.

Dry ingredients:

• 1 cup of almond flour
• ¼ cup of ground chia seeds
• ¼ cup of hemp hearts heart
• ¼ cup of coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• ½ teaspoon of baking powder soda
• ½ teaspoon of salt

Wet ingredients:

• 4 big eggs
• ¼ cup of melted butter or coconut oil
• ½ cup of unsweetened almond milk (or every carbon milk)
• 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar

Step-by-step instructions

1. Make your oven ready

Put your oven on 550 ° f (175 ° C). If you forget this step, you will wait later, so do it now. Also fat a 9 × 5-inch loib pan Line with a little butter or parchment paper for easy distance.

2. Mix the dry ingredients

Mix the almond flour, ground chia seeds, hemp hearts, coconut flour, baking powder, baking powder and salt in a large mixed bowl. Stir it quickly to make sure that everything is mixed evenly. This helps to lump baking powder (nobody wants a surprise bites).

3. Whisk the wet ingredients

Beat the eggs in a separate bowl until you are nice and foamy. This makes the bread easier. Add the melted butter (or coconut oil), almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir until everything looks smooth.

4. Bring everything together

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix yourself carefully – not very much. The dough begins to thicken because the chia seeds quickly absorb the liquid. If it looks too thick, let it sit for a few minutes and then stir around again. It should be thick, but still radiating.

5. Bake it up

Shovel the dough into the greased loib pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top. Pop it in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes Or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle.

6. The most difficult part: wait

When it’s done, take it out and Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire grille. If you cut it into slices too early, it is too soft inside. So be patient.

It is not too chic and has exactly the right balance of moisture, so that it does not collapse apart when you spread butter on it.

Even the best recipes don’t always go as planned. Here you will find out how to fix common problems:
