Ingredients

The following ingredients have 14 Servings
  • 6 egg whites (large, room temperature)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup / 60g coconut flour (sifted)
  • 4 tbsp / 24g whey protein powder
  • 1.5 tsp baking powder
  • pinch salt
  • 1/4 cup / 60g plain yoghurt (or Greek, room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup / 55g butter (melted, then cooled)
  • 2 tbsp water (lukewarm)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 180 C / 350 F and line a small bread pan (1 lb volume) with parchment paper.
  • Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Take your time with this - it should take about 3-4 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the 2 egg yolks, the yoghurt, butter and water for about 2 minutes until pale and fluffy.
  • Now add the dry ingredients - coconut flour, whey protein powder, baking powder and salt - alongside 1/4 of the stiff egg whites. Beat with the mixer until just combined.
  • Using a spatula, fold in the remainder of the egg whites until you have a smooth dough. Don't overmix to ensure you're keeping in the air bubbles!
  • Fill the dough in the prepared loaf pan and bake for about 35 minutes until golden on top or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
  • Let cool completely before cutting.
