Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 9” x 5” loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Mix together the avocado oil, pure maple syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, eggs, and extracts together in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together the almond flour, tapioca flour, protein powder, baking powder, and sea salt.
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix well.
  • Stir in the poppy seeds, followed by the fresh blueberries.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and spread it into an even layer.
  • Cover the bread pan with foil and bake for 30 minutes on the center rack of the preheated oven. Remove the foil and bake for another 30-40 minutes, or until the bread is cooked through and golden brown on top.
  • Bread is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 190 degrees Fahrenheit. Insert a digital thermometer into the center of the bread to check for doneness. The total time it takes to bake bread varies depending on elevation and ingredients used, which is why I love the thermometer method.
  • Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing. If you have a wire rack, place the bread pan on a wire rack. I use the grates of my stove top for cooling.
  • Enjoy a warm slice with a little melted butter and your favorite jam on top!
