Keto Olive Baguette
Being a big fan of cheese, I have always loved flavoured artisinal breads as well. Afterall, they are a match made in heaven! π
This olive baguette is excellent paired with cheese or as a side to a savoury dish.
Ingredients
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup psyllium husk powder
1/3 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup olives, pitted and sliced
5 large eggs
2 Tbsp butter, melted
2 tsp kosher salt, divided
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Optional, for garnish, scallions or fresh herbs

Directions
Preheat oven to 350F.
In a medium bowl, mix together the psyllium husk powder, coconut flour, onion powder, baking soda and 1 tsp of salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.
In a large bowl, using a handmixer, whisk together the coconut milk, melted butter and eggs until frothy. Gradually whisk in the dry ingredients.
Using a silicone or wooden spon, mix in the vinegar and 1/4 cup of olives, then allow the mixture to rest for 3-5 min.
Note: My go-to are spicy kalamata olives, but you can use any type of olive for this baguette.
Transfer the dough to a parchment lined baking sheet and shape into a baguette by hand.
Press the remaining olives into the dough and sprinkle the top with 1 tsp of kosher salt.
Optionally, you can also press fresh scallions or herbs into the top of the baguette dough. They will char and add a little extra flavour, but it is mostly aesthetic.
Bake the baguette for 50-55 min.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool at least 15 min before slicing.
Store the slices in the fridge or freeze them.
