    Making a delicious homemade flatbread doesn’t get any easier than this. With just five simple, whole-food ingredients, it comes together in less than 30 minutes! 

    Not to mention, it's incredibly versatile. With a subtle nutty flavour that doesn't overpower, it's the perfect bread base for almost anything.

    First and foremost, it goes deliciously well with hummus! Plus, it's my go-to pizza crust. I mean, who doesn’t love a good flatbread pizza?

    I also love serving it with soup and charcuterie boards. And, of course, it makes a yummy gluten-free base for open-face sandwiches and tuna melts. You can also spice up your homemade Flatbread by topping it with cheese, your favourite herbs or (my fave) everything but the bagel spice. Oh, and did I mention it makes the yummiest gluten-free garlic sticks and bruschetta?

    One last thing I can't forget to note is that you can easily turn it into a crispy, crunchy flatbread by baking it for five to ten extra minutes!

    Is Almond Flour Flatbread Healthy?

    This Homemade Almond Flour Flatbread is a nutrient-rich, naturally gluten-free, slow-carb option made with only five real food ingredients.

    Slow Carb (Better for Blood Sugar)

    The presence of protein, fats, and fibre in almond flour causes a slower breakdown of nutrients and carbs, resulting in a slower, steadier rise in blood sugar.

    So, this Easy Almond Flour Flatbread is an excellent option for those trying to lower or balance blood sugar levels.

    Protein & Nutrient Rich

    Almonds (and almond flour) are a great source of many vitamins and minerals. They’re rich in magnesium, calcium, iron and potassium. Not to mention, an excellent source of protein and vitamin E.

    Suitable for Many Dietary Needs

    Made with a blend of arrowroot, almond flour and water, this Flatbread is naturally free of grain, dairy and oil. Making it suitable for many dietary needs/preferences, including gluten-free, paleo, vegan and WFPB.

    Seasonal Benefits

    This Almond Flour Flatbread is a staple I love to enjoy all year round. As mentioned above, it's deliciously versatile and can be dressed up with a variety of seasonal toppings.

    Winter

    This Flatbread is full of fibre, protein and healthy fats that keep us satiated and warm in the cooler seasons.

    Harvest

    Almonds and arrowroot provide that sweet flavour (and white colour) associated with the harvest season. So, this yummy Flatbread can provide balance and nourishment to the spleen, stomach and earth element during late summer to early autumn.

    Seasonal Tips

    • Serve with your favourite winter and autumn soups!
    • Top with cooling veggies to make refreshing summer sandwiches, pizzas and appetizers.
    • Top with fresh herbs, sprouts and greens to support digestion and detoxification in the spring.

    How to Bake Amond Flour Flatbread in the Oven

    As mentioned above, this Baked Almond Flour Flatbread is so easy to make! It only takes a few minutes of prep time and just twenty minutes in the oven.

    What You Will Need

    You only need a handful of ingredients to make this Easy Flatbread. And no special equipment is required.

    Equipment

    • Mixing Bowl
    • Spatula
    • Baking Sheet
    • Unbleached Parchment Paper
    • Oven

    Ingredients

    • Almond Flour
    • Arrowroot Flour
    • Water
    • Baking Soda
    • Himalayan Salt

    Step One - Mix Ingredients

    First, preheat your oven to 350°F

    Then add almond flour, arrowroot, baking soda and salt to a large mixing bowl and mix well. Next, pour in the water and stir until a thick batter forms.

    Step Two - Spread On Baking Sheet

    Once you have a thick batter, spread it evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. As you can see from my pictures, it doesn't have to be perfect!

    Step Three - Bake

    Once you have spread your Flatbread batter evenly on your baking sheet, pop it into the oven and bake for twenty minutes or until the edges turn golden brown.

    If you prefer a crispier flatbread, leave it in the oven for five to ten extra minutes. However, if you're using it as a Flatbread Pizza crust, bake it for fifteen minutes, add your toppings and continue cooking for another ten to fifteen minutes.

    Once your Flatbread is baked to your liking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool before handling.

    Step Four - Cut, Serve & Enjoy

    Once your flatbread has cooled for a few minutes, slice it into squares or strips. I find a pizza cutter works best. However, a good knife also works well.

    Add your favourite toppings or serve with your favourite dips, spreads and soups.

    It's almost parfait season! My absolute favourit It's almost parfait season! 

My absolute favourite summer breakfast (and snack) is a good ole' parfait. There's nothing like fresh-picked berries topped on crunchy granola and creamy yogurt. And nothing beats homemade! 

Which is why I love using my simple homemade granola and cultured cashew yogurt to make a delicious parfait base without the dairy and refined sugar 👏

    Spring has most definitely sprung! (or rather more Spring has most definitely sprung! (or rather more like summer this past week 🌞)

Even so, spring is associated with the wood element (or space/ether), and its associated organs are the liver and gallbladder. This means spring is a wonderful time to do some inner spring cleaning and support our detoxification pathways.

Adding more greens and sour-tasting foods to your spring dishes is a really simple way to do so.

However, pungent and white foods like garlic and onion can also be very beneficial! 

And since it’s a season of change and renewal, root veggies are another spring favourite for their grounding power. Especially beets (of course) because they also support detoxification. 

Happy spring cleaning, wild ones ♡
