Ah, the paleo diet. It’s all fun and games until you’re ready to give up your first born for a single slice of bread. Sure, there are some paleo-friendly loaves out there on the market, but with a lot of them being upwards of $8, to say they aren’t cost-efficient would be a huge understatement. The solution? Bake your own!

This bread is fluffy with a slightly sweet and nutty flavor and uses no refined flours or grains — making it perfect for those following the paleo diet or who just want some great homemade gluten-free bread.
One tip before we get to the recipe, though: It’s recommended that you use the 7.5 x 3.5-inch loaf pan or your bread will not be the proper height. It’s very important to use the recommended size pan in this recipe so that it rises properly.
