Servings: persons

1 1/4 cups blanched almond flour
1/4 cup garbanzo flour (chickpea flour)
2 tablespoons garbanzo flour (chickpea flour)
1/4 cup golden flax seed, ground
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
5 eggs, separated
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon buttermilk
1 tablespoon Xylitol sweetener (or to desired sweetness) or 4 drops liquid stevia (or to desired sweetness)

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F.
2
Prepare 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pan by greasing.
3
Using a food processor, combine the almond flour, garbanzo bean flour, flaxseeds, baking soda, the optional cinnamon, and salt. Pulse until well blended. Add the egg yolks, butter, buttermilk, and xylitol or stevia and pulse just until blended.
4
Add the egg whites to a large mixing bowl and beat on high with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Pour into the flour mixture and pulse until the egg whites are evenly distributed, avoiding running the machine at a constant speed. Spread into the pan and bake for 40 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5
Cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool completely.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
