Gluten-Free, Fresh Dill Casserole Bread

Servings: 8
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 cup almond flour*
• 1/2 cup coconut flour, sifted
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoons yeast (active, dry)(or one individual package)
• 2 tablespoons minced, dehydrated onion
• about a cup of finely chopped, fresh baby dill
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably full-fat and cultured)
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 eggs
• Optional: extra butter to brush the top of the loaf, and coarse salt

Directions:

In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the almond flour, coconut flour, salt, baking powder, yeast, and dried onion. Make sure there are no clumps of coconut flour. Stir in the chopped dill.

In a small saucepan, heat the water, honey, cottage cheese, and butter until it is warm and the butter has melted. Stir the warm mixture into the dry ingredients until just incorporated. Stir in the eggs. Oil a standard loaf pan and spread the dough evenly into the pan. Let the dough rise for 45 minutes. It will not double, but it will increase in height.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the bread for 50–60 minutes or until golden on the edges and top and the center feels set (not squishy). Remove from the oven and, if desired, brush the top with some additional butter and sprinkle with coarse salt. Let the bread cool for ten minutes before slicing.

*You can grind your own almond flour by placing whole almonds in a blender/food processor and blending until you get a fine meal.
