Sandwich Bread

Using the same recipe as the pizza dough, I made sandwich bread.

1/2 cup almond flour
1 egg white
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt

Spread thin in greased pan
Put in a cold oven, heat to 300
Bake for 10 minutes

The texture and taste were great, but it was not soft enough to bend in the form of a wrap, which was my initial goal.  Perhaps leaving the yolk of the egg would make it a little softer and more pliable.

I mashed up an avocado, added some lime juice and spread it over the bread as my spread.  I also sauteed some yellow, red, green peppers and some zucchini for my filler.

Unfortunately, this dough may not be good for my sensitive system as I'm seeing setbacks in my UC healing process. Hopefully just too much, too soon, as I really like this option.

**Update**
I tried leaving the yolk in the dough, which did make it a little softer, BUT the taste of the yolk took over the almond flavor.  I didn't like it as much and will continue to leave the yolk out.  Oh, plus it made the bread yellow, which just looked sort of odd.
