Spicing things up with a Quick, Low Carb Bread Recipe!

More than your average bread recipe, this almond flour bread was inspired by sweet, store-bought cinnamon bread. However, unlike packaged varieties, this version contains no refined sugars, gluten, dairy, or preservatives. Instead, we used simple whole food ingredients to create a dense, hearty bread that’s soft, sweet, and perfect to prep ahead of time!

We love to serve it with a smear of homemade cashew or sunflower seed butter alongside warm coffee or turmeric tea latte for a hearty breakfast or satisfying afternoon snack. However, the serving options are endless! No matter how you slice this cinnamon almond flour bread, you can’t go wrong. 

Is Almond Flour Low Carb? 

Yes! Almond flour is extremely popular amongst the keto community because it contains just 3 grams of carbs and 1 gram of net carbs per every 2 tablespoons. Plus, it’s a great source of healthy fats and is easy to use. 

Gluten Free Cinnamon Almond Bread Ingredients

Below are the key ingredients used to make this cinnamon almond flour bread recipe. However, you’ll also need a few additional pantry staples. So, be sure to double-check the ingredient list in the recipe card below to ensure you have everything you need.

  • Grain free Flour – A combination of almond and coconut flour creates a soft and tender bread without the need for gluten or immense amounts of carbs. 
  • Flaxseed Meal – Contribute to the dense texture and provide an extra boost of healthy fats and fiber. If needed, chia seed meal can be substituted instead. 
  • Room Temperature Eggs – Not a low-calorie food, this almond flour bread contains 5 large whole eggs and one egg white for a fluffier texture that’s loaded with protein and nutrients. 
  • Apple Cider Vinegar – Used to lighten up the dough and help it rise without gluten-containing wheat or yeast. 
  • Maple Syrup or Honey – Contributes just a hint of sweetness without the need for refined sugar. 
  • Cinnamon – Adjust to taste. The more the merrier right? Plus it’s loaded with antioxidants!
  • Chia Seeds – Optional but recommended, chia seeds can be sprinkled on top for added texture, omega fatty acids, and fiber! 

How to Make the Best Almond Flour Bread Recipe

If you think homemade bread is difficult to make, think again! This cinnamon almond bread comes together with ease and is ready in less than an hour. Watch how it comes together below!

PALEO CINNAMON ALMOND FLOUR BREAD
  • Preheat. To begin, preheat your oven to 350° Fahrenheit, line a bread pan with parchment paper, grease the sides, and set it aside. 
  • Combine the dry ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, salt, baking soda, flaxseed meal, and ½ a tablespoon of cinnamon. 
  • Whisk the wet ingredients. In a second small bowl, combine the eggs and egg white until smooth. Then, add in the maple syrup or honey, apple cider vinegar, and oil, stirring to combine.

Pro Tip

Note: Make sure you let your eggs come to room temperature before mixing. Otherwise, the ingredients will solidify! 

  • Combine the ingredients. Working in batches, slowly mix the wet and dry ingredients, making sure to remove any clumps. NOTE – The batter will look super thick, but don’t add more liquid! As long as it looks similar to the pictures above, it’ll turn out great. 
  • Bake. Pour the batter into the bread pan, and bake until a toothpick can be inserted into the center and comes out clean.

  • Glaze. Whisk melted butter with the rest of the cinnamon, and brush the mixture on top of the almond bread. 
  • Cool. Set the bread aside to cool. Once the cinnamon topping has set, slice, and enjoy! 

Tips and Tricks

Adjust the Pan Size. If you don’t have an 8×4 bread pan, don’t worry. A bigger size can be used. Your bread won’t be quite as fluffy, but it will be every bit as tasty! 

Make Your Own Flaxseed or Chia Seed Meal. To make the flaxseed or chia meal, simply place the flaxseeds or chia seeds in a coffee grinder or food processor, and grind until a fine meal-like texture is formed.

Keep an Eye on the Oven. This recipe typically takes between 30-35 minutes to bake. However, depending on your oven and altitude, cooking times will vary. So, be sure to keep an eye on your bread, and remove it from the oven if it starts to look golden brown before the baking time is up.

Create a Sweet Cinnamon Almond Bread. For a sweet breakfast bread, feel free to add extra maple syrup or honey to the dough, and add a sprinkle of coconut sugar to the cinnamon glaze. 

Make Ahead & Freezing Options

This almond bread recipe is so tasty you’re gonna want to go ahead and make 2…or 3 loaves. Luckily, they’re great to make in advance and keep on hand! Once cooled, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. 

Or, slice the bread, wrap each piece individually with plastic wrap, and transfer them to a sealable bag where they can be frozen for up to 2-3 months. 

To enjoy, warm the bread in the toaster (thawed or frozen), add your favorite toppings, and enjoy! 

Pro Tip

Serving Suggestions

Honestly, we love to eat this almond flour bread warm on its own. However, it’s absolutely scrumptious with toppings like butter, honey, cream cheese, nut butter, jam, or even a fried egg on top! Or, pair it with a warm meal like butternut squash soup or turkey sweet potato chili. 

Common Questions About This Almond Bread Recipe

Can I use chia seeds instead of flaxseeds?

Yes! Swap out equal parts flaxseed for chia seed meal for the same great taste and texture. 

Can I substitute coconut flour instead?

For this recipe, we include a combination of coconut and almond flour. However, we do not recommend using only coconut flour as it requires different liquid ratios and won’t yield the same results. 

Does almond flour rise with yeast? 

No, due to its low carbohydrate count, almond flour does not rise with yeast.

    This looks great I would love to try and make it. Not really supposed to have coconut flour due to fodmap/IBS. I have a variety of gluten-free flours, including some starches… What would you recommend for a sub?thx!

      Hi Kimmie! It’s 2 tbsp coconut flour, which is very minimal when divided by 8-9 servings. Are you currently on a strict low fodmap plan? If so, maybe try 3 tbsp oat flour (GF) in place of coconut flour.

        Thanks so much for getting back to me, really appreciate it! Yeah coconut flour, sadly is on my no go list. I will try the oat flour substitute next time, I did make this yesterday before I saw your note, and I did the 3 to 1 ratio for rice flour instead of coconut flour and it turned out really well. absolutely love the texture, the flavor is great, nutrition is fabulous, and I like that it could go sweet or savory depending on what you put on it. ❤️❤️❤️

    I made this bread for my 16 month old son and he loves it! I spread either almond butter or peanut butter on it for him and he gobbles it up. We don’t feed him gluten and so this was a great way to use up all the almond flour I have and didn’t know what to do with. I love that the bread is savory with a hint of sweetness. I froze half the loaf for later use since it’s for my toddler and he still eats small portions. I did use a bigger loaf pan and it still turned out great. I also used less cinnamon in mine and olive oil instead of butter or coconut oil as that’s all I had on hand. It was great! This will be a future staple for us. Thank you.

    I’m going to make this but lean it in a savory direction. I’m going to leave out the maple syrup/honey/ cinnamon, but up the salt to a teaspoon and throw in some garlic powder or maybe some everything bagel seasoning and herbs. I don’t see why it wouldn’t work well, do you? I like the look of this loaf but I’m trying to train my palate away from sweet flavors right now. I’ll let you know how it works out!

It was really delicious and satisfying!

    This was a delicious recipe to try for my first time making bread! I didn’t have coconut flour so I just added a little bit more almond flour and it worked great! I also used vegan butter and honey which didn’t alter the taste at all. I also added a swirl of cinnamon in the middle, which my family thought was cute. I would rate this a 10/10, and would definitely make it again.

    Lindsay,

    This bread is very easy to throw together! When its made it makes the kitchen smell fantastic.

    On my first attempt, the bread had great flavor for what was there but lacked the significant cinnamon flavor I was hoping for. Additionally, my sample was incredibly dry. I used coconut oil (apposed to butter) and honey (opposed to maple syrup), otherwise I followed every direction just as its written out. Do you have any advice for changing these two features?

      Oh no, sorry to hear that nathan. I’m thinking there are two factors that could play into this. One, what type of coconut flour did you use? Brand? YOu might need to sift it before adding to almond flour. The other fact could be over mixing the eggs. I would try sifting the flours together first. Does that me sense?

      Hm replacing the egg actually might be a little bit tricky in this recipe! If you are looking for an egg free/vegan bread loaf, I think you’d like this tea cake bread! https://www.cottercrunch.com/maple-earl-grey-tea-cake-loaf/#tasty-recipes-43012

    Thank you for the recipe! I used 1/2 coconut flour and 1/2 almond since I didn’t have enough almond flour– it is VERY dry. Is that why?? Can coconut flour not be substituted for almond?

    Also I omitted the honey since I am not eating sugar right now. It smells amazing but a little hard to eat. Maybe I shouldn’t have omitted the honey and/or substituted the flours. Thoughts!?! I’m mad because it smells amazing!

      Oh no, yes coconut flour is pretty sensitive, I never use more that 4 tbsp in a bread. But you could totally try adding a topping, like more coconut oil with cinnamon. Haha I have done this before. Another option, slice it and then use it in a bread pudding with eggs and almond milk. YOu can make it savory or sweet!

    Was looking for a low-carb bread to make in small loaves and include with jams in a Christmas gift basket. This was PERFECT. Moist with comforting spiciness. I did add a little Splenda to both the bread and the topping – forgive me, but I do like things a bit sweeter than what the small amount of maple syrup could provide. Will definitely make again!

    Portion control. Just saying. Five eggs to replace how many wheat plants? Gluten is part of evolution of humans transversing the globe. Maybe wheat is not the enemy. (The egg -laying chickens agree with me…..portion control.)

      Hi Catharine! In stead of coconut flour, you could try 3 -4 tbsp tapioca, rice flour, or oat flour. But watch the baking time. I haven’t tried it, so keep me posted! Coconut flour absorbs fast so you always use less.
