FAQs

1. Can I use olive oil instead of coconut oil or butter?

Yes, olive oil works as a substitute, but it may change the flavor slightly.

Yes, but omit the cream of tartar if following GAPS.

4. Can I make this bread without eggs?

Eggs are essential for the texture and rise of this bread, so it’s not recommended to omit them.

The coconut flour helps absorb moisture and balance the texture, so it’s best to use both flours.

It lasts 1-2 days at room temperature, up to a week in the fridge, or several months in the freezer.

7. Can I toast this bread?

Yes, it toasts wonderfully and holds up well for toppings or to use as a base for French toast.

8. Can I add seeds to the bread?

Absolutely! Seeds like flax, chia, or sunflower add crunch and extra nutrients.

Divide the batter into muffin tins or small ramekins for individual portions.

You can add cinnamon, vanilla extract, or more stevia for a sweeter version, depending on your preference.
