Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup full‑fat Greek yogurt (unsweetened, plain)
- 1 Tbsp baking powder (aluminum‑free preferred)
- ¼ cup melted butter or coconut oil
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp xanthan gum or psyllium husk powder (for structure)
- Optional: ½ cup finely ground almond flour (adds structure—skip if you want strict zero carbs)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C); line or grease an 8×4‑inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, and melted butter (or coconut oil) until smooth and creamy.
- Add the baking powder, salt, xanthan gum (or psyllium husk), and almond flour (if using), then stir until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 35–45 minutes, until golden on top and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing

Notes & Tips:
- For strict zero-carb, omit almond flour—the recipe claims negligible carbs when made this way.
- Make sure to use full‑fat, unsweetened yogurt for best texture and carb control.
- Letting the loaf cool completely helps it firm up so slices don’t crumble.
