    This Paleo tigernut flour bread is grain free, dairy free and nut free. It's made with tigernut flour and has no added sugar - perfect with sweet or savory toppings. In addition, this healthy Paleo bread recipe is soft and moist, yet holds together well. It is an excellent bread for making sandwiches or toast.

    Have you tried making bread with tigernut flour yet?!

    Maybe a better question is have you tried tigernut flour? As, it's one of my favorite Paleo baking flours and I use it in many of my recipes.

    What are Tigernuts?

    As confusing as it may be, tigernuts are not actually nuts, but small root vegetables. They are naturally sweet, with a nutty flavor - perfect for baking!

    Tigernut flour is made from finely ground, peeled tigernuts. This flour is Paleo, Vegan and allergy friendly. From my experience, it bakes similarly to almond flour. They both have a fine texture and slightly sweet flavor.

    I like using tigernut flour in my baking because I like having nut free Paleo recipes. Personally, I think it's easy to over-consume nuts when going grain free. Using alternative flours like tigernut flour, cassava flour and plantain flour are great ways to still bake Paleo but avoid overeating nuts.

    For more recipe ideas and information on tigernut flour, check out my Guide to Tigernut Flour.

        So I got my first bag of tigernut flour and attempted some simple bare muffins and the taste was great, even the texture was soft and good, except when chewing it was a bit grainy/ sand-like 🙁 I want to try this bread recipe I just don’t want it to have that same grainy issue! Does a sifter help with that? Or maybe a coffee grinder to really make it fine? Just curious if you’ve experienced this with tigernut flour too. Thanks for your help!

          I don't notice the grainy-ness with the tigernut flour I use (I use Anthony's tigernut flour) but I know some brands aren't as fine. I think further processing the tigernut flour in a coffee grinder would help with that issue, but I haven't tried it myself.

        Thanks so much for letting me know Katie, I just ordered Anthony’s brand, it says ‘extra fine’ on it so hopefully you’re right, and that means it’s more finely ground. I was going to use your affiliate link but it’s to the Gemini brand not Anthony’s finely ground one, just to let you know in case you’d like up update your link! I saw reviews on Gemini that it could be a bit grainy too, so I’m hoping since Anthony’s says ‘extra fine,’ that’ll solve the problem. I’ll make your bread in a couple days when I receive the Anthony’s tigernut flour, and I’ll be sure and leave you a fabulous review! 😉 Thanks so much for your help! Can’t wait to make this bread! 🙂

      This bread looks absolutely amazing. Only problem is I'm on an AIP diet and have to stay away from eggs. Any suggestions? Can I just mix psyllium husk power with the dry ingredients instead of the egg with the wet?

      Also curious, is the batter wet like pancake batter rather than a more dough texture like traditional bread? I'm just surprised with the amount of liquid vs dry ingredients that it's so liquidity. I'm really excited to try it. It's so hard to find a legit bread like recipe that is autoimmune paleo friendly.

        Hi! I haven't tested this recipe without eggs and I've never used psyllium husk in my baking so I can't offer any suggestions. Yes, the batter is pretty runny but it creates a fluffy, tender bread.

          Yeah it really does look so fluffy. Which is why I’m so drawn to it! Psyllium is supposed to be an egg replacement. I use it when I make salmon cakes and fake doughnuts. Since it absorbs water it encourages of a more dough/dry like consistency. I’ll have to try it and report back!

        • Kbanaa

          May 04, 2023 at 12:49 pm

          I would love to hear if the psyllium just worked. Or if anyone has tried applesauce or a gelatin egg to make this AIP compliant. I want to make the recipe this weekend, so I am hoping one of those works out!

      The bread is absolutely wonderful! It just couldn't be any better.
      Could you give me an idea of pan size if I double/triple the recipe?
      Also, would that increase the baking time/temp?
      The ingredients are too expensive to make a mistake so I wanted to be sure.

I halved the recipe and used a mini loaf pan (baked 30 minutes) It rose beautifully and made a high loaf. Thank you for another winner! 🙂

      I made this and it turned out GREAT. I'm new to this type of cooking and was looking to substitute a traditional loaf bread, and this really held together for my sandwich. I had to make it with 5 eggs, though, because my eggs were very small! It's a delicate crumb but the slice still kept its height in the sandwich with finger handling and didn't smush down or break apart. The raw batter was very thin, so I wasn't sure if I was on the right track, but I put it in the mold with a prayer and "oh well, here goes nothing," and lo and behold, 40 minutes later, ta-da! The tigernut flour gave it a natural, pleasant sweetness too. Definitely a keeper. Thanks for sharing the recipe, Katie.

      I made the bread today but my batter was quite dry when I added it to the pan to begin with and my loaf is a bit dry, also a little gritty because of the tigernut flour in the UK as another person mentioned. I see others said the batter was runny and the bread was moist. Would I add more water next time or more oil, or less flour? Not sure how to adjust for the different tigernut flour brand or if I possibly did something wrong.

        Hi! One idea is to grind the tigernut flour in a coffee grinder to get it fine. I also suggest measuring the tigernut and tapioca flour by weight. If the batter is too runny, add a little more tigernut flour. If it's too thick, add a little more water.

      My daughter brought this to our home for Thanksgiving dinner. We all loved it! Unlike so many GF breads I purchase at the store, this one did not fall apart when we spread butter on it…and it tasted so good.

      Wow. This bread has it all: simple ingredients, straightforward method and delicious results! Okay, I didn't totally enjoy sifting the tigernut flour, but the results told me that was an important step. I like the tigernut flour from Iya Foods - fine grind, tasty, and comes in up to 5-pound bags. Looking forward to toast in the morning!

      I tend to react to tapioca flour. Is there a good substitute that would work for that?

        Arrowroot starch or potato starch should work as a replacement, but I haven't tried them myself.

      Tapioca flour/starch has a high glycemic index - not good for my diabetes because it spikes sugar. Will try your recipe with arrowroot to substitute for tapioca flour. Thanks!

        did you try a substitution? can I just try and leave it out instead of finding a replacement?

      I’ve been making all of your tigernut recipes and loving them! This bread has such a lovely natural sweetness. My oven temp must be off because I found the loaf needed nearly a full hour to bake. I have celiac, pcos, and hereditary porphyria — I developed a lot of sensitivities around turning 30 and miss “normal” food so much. So happy to have found your page!

      Followed the recipe exactly and it came out perfect!! This was my first time baking with tigernut flour so I was nervous on what I was going to think, but the flavor was nice and neutral so it was exactly what I needed for an easy sandwich bread. I am on a super restricted diet due to allergies and intolerances so I’ve been searching for and trying several bread recipes over the years. I’m definitely going to be saving this one to make again and again!

      Since I first made this recipe a couple of months ago, I've not let myself be without this bread! It's absolutely delicious, the first bread I've truly enjoyed, even with nothing at all on it and without toasting, since going gluten free (I have celiac). Since I live alone, I freeze half the loaf and keep the other half in the frig. Can't tell the difference between fresh baked and thawed frozen bread. I did add 1/4 cup raw sesame seeds to my first loaf, just because I had them. The bread was so good that I've continued to add the seeds to every loaf since.

      I’ve made this recipe once and plan to do it again here soon! I’m unfortunately on a really restricted diet (celiac, no grains, no tree nuts) so finding bread at the store is almost impossible. I was able to make my first real PB&J sandwich in over 5 years with this bread and I wanted to cry! The bread holds up great for sandwiches/burgers/etc. If tigernut flour was only just a little bit cheaper I would be making this recipe weekly!

      This bread is AMAZING! My family is grain free, dairy free, and tree nut free - so finding a bread recipe has been challenging. A friend sent me this last week and I have already made twice!

      Sub - sweet potato starch instead of tapioca (for low fermentation diet)

      Toast a slice and add a bit of coconut oil, manukkah honey, and salt. SO GOOD!

      I'm interested in finding out if anyone subbed for the eggs in this recipe (AIP - Paleo). The flour is so expensive it would sure be good to know if a sub worked.

      Thanks for the recipe. I made this today, but too crumbly for sandwiches. I've found most of these paleo breads require additional binder, I'll try adding Xanthan gum.

      I have successfully made this twice and I am about to make it again. The Tiger nut flour I found at my local store does leave a grainy texture, but not bad enough that it keeps me from eating and enjoying it. I have used Bob’s Red Mill gf egg replacer and it has done well for me. I enjoy having this to fall back on as a snack with almond butter or with butter with a meal.
      Thank you for working with less common ingredients. I have a lot of food sensitivities to work around and would not know where to begin without people like you!

      I can not have any gluten or tapioca/cassava. So I was so happy to find this recipe and decided on the reviews to give it a try. I followed the directions, substituted tapioca flour for arrowroot, added the egg yolks and use egg replacer for the whites, added a pinch of cinnamon, pinch of vanilla powder, and a splash of vanilla. It turned out very nice, great flavor, and its wonderful toasted with apple butter or jam. Will definitely make this one again Thank you...its a winner 5 stars !!

        This bread needs some kind of starch. Arrowroot would work as an alternative to the tapioca.

      Love love this bread. I’ve been using tigernut flour for awhile, but using almond flour which is too inflammatory and found the best mixture.
      Tapioca flour and the specific amounts of ingredients I finally achieved perfection!
      Had been looking for unsweetened bread and the baking mix’s I could order all were sweetened. Thank you so much! Can omitting sweetener on some of your other recipes work? Albeit bland which is fine. Just curious any nutritional information you were able to calculate?
      Been paleo for awhile and it truly is a way of eating for life.
      Thanks again.

        Hi! If the recipe doesn't call for a lot of sweetener (less than 1/4 cup), then omitting it should be fine. I don't tend to calculate the nutritional information for recipes, as I don't count macros or calories. You can use a free app like MyFitness pal to do so if you're interested.

      I love the tiger nut bread! I’ve been eating with my protein of choice in the mornings after my workouts with a small amount berries, and apple made into a flax pudding. . Sometimes I add a bit of milk to my pudding and crumble the tiger nut bread into the whole concoction. It’s a great replacement for my oat/quinoa porridge and It reminds me of British Bread pudding LOl! I love just love it! The tiger nut bread is also a wonderful pre-workout snack with some protein powder! Thank you for what you have added to the world of healthy eating!

      Best. Grain-free bread. Ever! I kept my expectations very low since every bread I’ve tried up to this one has been awful. This bread is amazing! I just ate a toasted piece that I previously froze and it was still moist and delicious! I have a histamine intolerance so I have to freeze everything right away. I will be making this bread again and again. I cut my pieces thick and they will be perfect for hearty sandwiches. Thank you so much!
