I recently stayed with my parents for two weeks in Nashville. I loved having a bigger kitchen and best of all a dishwasher. My dad started on a 30 day Paleo challenge so and I wanted to help him along with some grain free bread like versions of his favorite dishes.  I made this grain free chia bread (Paleo, gaps, gluten-free) that was a big hit. Other coconut flour breads I made were just mealy but this one had a unique quality that made it a winner.

My Dad has a major sweet tooth and his determination is sometimes not as strong as I would like.  But I have full faith that this is the real thing for him! I was glad I was there for two whole weeks to get him over the carb cravings and detox feelings that many people go through. If he is still sticking with it I hope to post his 30 day before and after photos. He was off to a great start when I left and had already lost a lot of weight. It is amazing what balancing hormones and lowering inflammation can do!!

The chia gave the bread a bounce and bite that coconut flour alone just wont give.

For those sensitive to eggs, I could not figure out how to make it egg free this time, sorry!

Grain Free Chia Bread (Paleo, Gaps, gluten-free)

Prep time 10 minutes

Cooking time 40 minutes

Serves 4-6 (makes 1 loaf)

Ingredients:

6 eggs

1/2 cup melted coconut oil or grass fed butter

1-2 tablespoons honey (optional)

1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar

2 Tbsp Chia

1/2 teaspoon sea salt 

1/3 cup coconut flour

2 Tbsp almond flour

1 tsp baking soda

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Mix the wet ingredients in one bowl.

Grind the chia in a coffee grinder (don’t skip this step).

Mix the dry ingredients in another bowl including ground chia.

Combine the two mixtures and let them sit for 5 minutes.

Pour into a greased small loaf pan and bake for 40 minutes.

(I only had a large loaf pan that I covered in parchment paper to make it smaller. The batter filled it about half way.)

Let the bread cool for 5 minutes.

Slice and serve with butter or almond butter.
