Cooking Tools Required

8x5 inch Loaf Pan, Electric Hand Mixer, Kitchen towels, Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, Oven, parchment paper, Spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil for greasing the pan
  • 5 egg separated

Beat together:

  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1⁄3 cup coconut oil
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1⁄2 cup coffee strong, such as Turkish or a shot of espresso

Fold in:

  • 2 1⁄2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup walnuts finely chopped

Instructions

  • Lightly grease loaf pan with coconut oil, and line with parchment paper. Note: Cut one sheet to lay crosswise, lay in pan, and cut another sheet to lay lengthwise over the first sheet. This will make it easy to lift out when you are ready to unmold, when cake is completely cooled.
  • With a hand mixer, beat the egg whites for about one minute until they are foamy.
  • Add the yolks, honey, oil, baking soda, baking powder and coffee, mixing until well blended.
  • Gently fold the almond flour and walnuts into the yolk mixture.
  • Pour into prepared loaf pan and bake at 350o F for 40-60 minutes.
Reheating Instructions
Can be left at room temperature for up to 3 days, then stored tightly wrapped in the refrigerator.
