This is a recipe for Leek and Roasted Garlic Focaccia Bread!
I found it on the Candida Diet website.... it does have Kefir in it and should be considered safe only for those who can tolerate a small amount of CLEAN dairy. I am absolutely obsessed with leeks and my body did well with this recipe! Don't eat all at once though!
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 leek, sliced in to thin rings
3 cloves roasted garlic, mashed
4 egg whites
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup kefir
1/3 cup coconut flour, sifted
1/3 cup golden flaxseed meal
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp baking soda
1 tsp Herbs de Provence
salt and pepper to taste
1) Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium low heat. Add sliced leek and sautee until softened, but not browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in mashed roasted garlic cloves. Set aside.
2) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With a brush oil a 13x9 inch baking pan with olive oil. Cut a piece of parchment paper the width of the bottom of the baking pan and long enough to overlap the ends of the pan. Brush parchment paper with olive oil and place it in the pan.
3) In a medium bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, set aside. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks and kefir, set aside. In a large bowl combine sifted coconut flour, golden flax seed meal, salt and baking soda. Fold egg whites and egg yolk mixture into flour mixture until just combined.
4) Spread batter evenly in prepared baking pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove baking pan from oven and scatter top of bread with leek and roasted garlic mixture, drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with Herbs de Provence and salt and pepper to taste. Return baking pan to oven and bake bread for another 10 minutes, or until edges begin to brown.
5) Cool, slice, and serve!
