Grain Free Focaccia Bread

Have you gone grain free or are you thinking about it?  This Focaccia Bread is an awesome grain free bread substitute.  It is so easy to make and ready in under a half hour.  Add your choice of toppings and you are good to go.

When you eat grain free, it can be challenging finding good bread substitutes.  One issue I have found is that many recipes make bread products that are very moist.  So, they are hard to toast and the overall texture just doesn’t work.

The simple ingredients in this recipe are:  almond flour (blanched), eggs, coconut oil, baking powder and sea salt.

I really like this focaccia recipe because the texture works.  It can be used for sandwiches, toasted with jam, or as I have shown here with some basic mayonnaise, sliced tomatoes and chopped basil.  There are lots of other ways to use this and many toppings that would be great.

The easiest way to prepare is to place some parchment paper in the bottom of an 8 x 8 glass dish.  Then mix up the ingredients and pour in the glass baking dish, spread so batter is even and bake.  In the above photo, I have shaped the batter on a round piece of parchment, which is another option.  I had to spend some extra time shaping the batter on this round parchment paper, which is why I mention the 8 x 8 glass dish as the easiest option.

I would imagine this would make a great pizza crust.  If you try it, I would love to hear what variations and toppings you come up with!

Enjoy!
