Ingredients
 

  • 3 eggs

Notes

* Homemade Oat Flour: In a blender, add about 1.5 cups of rolled oats. Blend until the oats turn into a fine flour, about 20 seconds to 1 minute. Then measure 1 cup of flour.
Store-Bought Oat Flour: You can use store-bought oat flour, but make sure NOT to pack it in the measuring cup, or else this bread can turn out dry.
Almond Flour: Do not use Trader Joe’s brand or almond meal.
Storing: Store extras in an air-tight container at room temperature or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Freezing: Simply add slices to a freezer-safe bag and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months.
