  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the coconut flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.
  • In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt the almond butter until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. You can also melt it over the stove on low heat. Add in eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

  • Pour the batter into prepared loaf pan and let stand for 10 minutes before baking to allow the coconut flour to absorb some moisture.
  • Bake until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45-50 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.
