Breakfast Bread (paleo)

Here's another recipe from Elana's Pantry. I just love her site and love finding healthy foods to try for my family. So, you'll notice this bread has no flour. It's pretty dense and delicious, though.
I've been making big changes to my diet lately and that's what led me to Elana's site. I can't say I would've chosen the changes I'm making, but now that I'm on this journey I'm grateful for where it's going. But that's a story for another time. This bread is low glycemic and high in protein - a great way to start your day.

Paleo Breakfast Bread
 ½ cup creamy roasted almond butter
 2 eggs
 2 tablespoons honey
 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
 ¼ teaspoon stevia (I omitted this one simply b/c I don't have it)
 ¼ teaspoon celtic sea salt
 ¼ teaspoon baking soda
 1 tablespoon cinnamon
1. In a large bowl, with a hand blender , mix almond butter until creamy
2. Mix in eggs, honey, vanilla and stevia
3. Add salt, baking soda and cinnamon
4. Mix well with hand blender until all ingredients are combined
5. Transfer batter into a well greased 8x8 inch Pyrexbaking dish
6. Bake at 325° for 12 to 15 minutes and serve
Serves 4
It comes together quickly and then you get...
Mmmm. I love it and so do my kids! So if you're eating vegan, gluten free, paleo, or just feeling adventurous try this one out. It's breakfast you can feel good about :)
