Ingredients
1 1/3 cup water2 Tablespoons honey 2 3/4 teaspoons instant yeast 1 1/3 cup blanched almond flour1 1/4 cups potato starch 1/2 cup tapioca flour 1/4 cup flax seed meal 3 Tablespoons psyllium husk powder 4 large egg whites2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar 1/4 cup cooking oil
Directions
Preheat oven to 170 to 200°F. Oil a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
Add the honey and water together, heat it to no higher than 115°F, stir in the yeast, and allow it to rest until it is nice and foamy on top, about 5 minutes.
In a medium-size bowl, combine almond flour, potato starch, tapioca flour, flaxseed meal, and psyllium husk powder.
In the bowl of your mixer, beat egg whites for 30 seconds or until bubbly.
Add oil, vinegar, and yeast mixture and beat on low speed for about 15 seconds or until combined.
Add flour mixture all at once and beat on low speed just until moistened. Increase speed to high and beat with a high-powdered mixer for 6 minutes and about 8 minute with a low powdered mixer.
Scoop dough into the prepared pan, drop about 12 drops of water on top and smooth out with a rubber spatula dipped in water.
Place pan on middle shelf of oven, turn oven off, and leave door open about 8 inches. Allow the dough to rise until it is about 1/2-inch over the rim of the pan, about 20 minutes.
Remove risen loaf from oven and preheat oven to 375°F.
Place loaf pan back in the oven and bake for approximately 40 minutes.
Immediately remove bread from pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 2 hours.
Slice using an electric slicer, electric knife, or a serrated knife.

    This is the Holy Grail of Gluten Free breads. Oh my goodness! So soft but moist. Airy and spongy, but not chewy. Toasts awesome! Great for sandwiches. Soon going to try using for hamburger buns. My daughter gives it 2 high thumbs up and that's important. - 6/3/16
