Keto Brioche Bread

(Makes 1 loaf | 10 slices | Net carbs: ~2g per slice)

• 1½ cups (168g) blanched almond flour (critical: blanched for pale color + fine texture)

• ½ cup (56g) coconut flour

• 2 tbsp psyllium husk powder (NOT whole husks—texture will be gritty)

• 2 tsp active dry yeast (check expiration date!)

• 1 tbsp erythritol/monk fruit blend (plus 1 tsp for yeast activation)

• ½ tsp fine sea salt

• ¼ cup warm water (105–115°F / 40–46°C)

• 6 large eggs, room temperature

• ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted + cooled

• 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional but recommended for sweet brioche)

• 1 egg yolk + 1 tbsp water (egg wash)

• Extra butter for greasing

(Equipment: 9×5″ loaf pan, stand mixer/paddle attachment recommended, instant-read thermometer)
