I found a keto friendly coconut bread So lets make it together Here is what you will need 7 large eggs 1/2 cup coconut flour 1/2 cup butter 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp xanthan gum  Heat oven to 355F First thing is put the 7 eggs into a bowl and beat them for 1 to 2 minutes on high then we add the remaining ingredients and beat again until completely mixed then scape into a 9 x 6 loaf pan. Again i didn't have baking paper so i just sprayed with coconut oil Bake for 45 minutes. To check if its done, stick a skewer into the middle and if it comes out clean, then its done. Does this not look delish. I let this rest for a few before i cut this and let me tell you that this taste so delish and i don't have to worry about this bloating me up. LOVE THIS!!!
