Notes

You’ll get the best results by weighing the almond flour using a kitchen scale.

I have made it with 5 eggs and 6 eggs.  It’s a little dryer and more dense with 5 eggs, a little softer with 6 eggs. I like 6 eggs because it provides more protein. The nutrition information is with 6 eggs.

The rosemary and garlic give the bread a savory taste but it is optional. You could also use, thyme or Italian seasoning.
