Hemp + Tahini Loaf
Hemp flour? It’s a thing and it is delicious in this low-carb fibre-packed bread loaf. Made from 100% hemp, this flour in combination with the tahini makes this bread nutty and seedy and rich. It’s quite a savoury loaf so this one is best for topping with avo, eggs, veggies and hummus.
I love this recipe because the hemp gives it a solid boost of plant protein without the carbohydrates that often come with other plant proteins like legumes and beans. That and it’s also nut-free! As much as I love my Fluffy Paleo Loaf (the best paleo and keto bread ever that is not eggy and not wet), sometimes I want something that isn’t almond-based.

Hi:-) I would love to make the Tahini and Hemp flour bread without eggs. Can I replace with golden ground flaxseed and water? Or egg yolks instead? I have allergies to egg whites.
