Coconut Flour Bread
In a frying pan, add 2 Tbsp unsalted butter (or coconut oil) on medium to melt.
In a bowl, mix thoroughly:
2 eggs... I used All Whites - Liquid Egg Whites (6 Tbsp. total)
2 Tbsp coconut flour
2 Tbsp Bob's Red Mills - Unflavored Whey Protein Powder (you can use any kind you want, that's just the only unflavored kind I have in my house)
dash of salt or other seasonings… I opted not to use any

After the ingredients were mixed thoroughly, I poured the batter out (in two separate parts) in the frying pan and 'fried' it like a pancake. Flipping over in a few minutes. It didn't take too long and the batter is thick. (the 'fried' version is to the right in the photo below). To turn it into a sandwich, I cut one of the 'pancake' style breads in half (horizontally) and put my lunch meat and cheese in the center.

I then decided to get somewhat creative and try baking it. I preheated the oven to 350* F. When it was at the desired temperature, I laid some parchment paper out on a cookie sheet and, after making a new batch of 'dough' (this time with the butter added into the recipe), I poured it out onto the parchment paper and spread it out as thin as I could without being able to see any of the parchment paper through the dough. This 'bread' is pictured above on the left hand side. I spread it out based on what I imagined would be enough (once cut) to make two sandwiches with a 'slice of bread' for both sides, if that makes sense. That's why, in the picture, there are 4 'slices of bread'. It's a little dry. I think the whole eggs may make it a little more moist.
With the butter counted as an ingredient, the nutritional information for 1 serving (there are 2 servings with the recipe, according to how I did it, anyway) is as follows (based on information from MyFitnessPal and with using whole eggs rather than the egg whites)...
