Grain-Free Butter Bread

1 . Stage

Separate eggs. Crack each egg into your hand and let the whites run into a bowl. Place yolks in a second bowl.

2 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a loaf pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

3 . Stage

Place almond flour in a food processor. Add baking powder, salt, and egg yolks. Pour in melted butter. Pulse, scraping down the sides once or twice, until mixture comes together.

4 . Stage

Sprinkle cream of tartar into egg whites. Whisk until soft peaks form. Transfer about 1/3 of the mixture into the food processor. Pulse on and off, scraping mixture down with a spatula as needed, until well blended. Scrape mixture into the bowl with egg whites. Fold together until well combined but still airy. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.

5 . Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes.

6 . Stage

Run a thin knife along the edge bread and let rest for 10 minutes. Turn bread out onto a wire rack and cool to room temperature before slicing. Chef John
