Almond Butter Bread

A few summers ago, in my daily internet musings, I discovered a Paleo Cashew Bread on Elana's Pantry. 

I'm not paleo or gluten free. I'm a champion for delicious, simple food and getting in the kitchen. The bread is no fuss, with 5 ingredients total (6 if you count the squeeze of honey I add to the batter). No flour mess, one spin in the food processor, an easy bake - and you're done.

I love easy fuss free cooking and so truly believe folks are scared of their kitchen because they think food needs to be complicated, but it's just the opposite.

Guaranteed baking a loaf of this bread will make you feel like a star. I love to add raisins, cranberries, seeds sprinkled on top - you name it. It's adaptable to be savory or sweetened up with dried fruit and you'll be proud you got in the kitchen.

So, go on and make it. I prefer almond over cashew butter. And you may be wondering how this "bread" works without flour and it's the magical reaction of the apple cider vinegar and baking soda.

Smear with butter, stack with hummus and avocado for lunch, dare to dip it in your sauce at dinner. This home baked, easily digestible, fast, bread baking novice friendly recipe will not let you down!

Get in the kitchen!
