Low Carb Keto Bread Recipe – A Low Carb Bread Packed with Healthy Fats

What does it mean to be on a ketogenic diet (often shortened to “keto”)? When you’re on a keto diet, you’re consuming a very low-carb, high-fat diet. The idea behind this way of eating and why it can work so well is that when your body gets such small amounts of glucose from carbohydrates, it can burn another fuel source—fat—for energy. That’s why the keto diet is known to help your body burn fat at an impressive rate! What if you’re not trying to lower the number on your scale? The keto diet may still appeal to you because by limiting sugars and processed grains, you can lower your risk of developing type 2 diabetes, a disease that’s becoming increasingly common these days.

Low Carb Ketogenic Bread Recipe – The Best Low Carb Bread

Looking for the best bread to eat when it comes to healthy fats? This keto bread recipe definitely has you covered. It’s actually a coconut and almond flour bread, and like other almond flour recipes, you get all those almond benefits in every slice. What’s so great about almond nutrition? For starters, almonds are loaded with healthy monounsaturated fat, which research has shown to be a heart-healthy fat that can help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol as well as your risk of heart disease.

Similar to my coconut flour bread recipe, this recipe is easy enough to make at home that you can stop buying bread from the store! If you’re new to higher fat (healthy fat) breads, should you try coconut bread or almond bread first? Well, both are delicious, so it may just be a matter of personal preference or what kind of gluten-free flour you have on hand. This recipe is primarily almond flour bread with a touch of coconut flour and is one of my favorite low carb recipes.

This low-carb bread recipe using almond flour comes really close to being a zero-carb bread. Zero-carb bread isn’t easy to find or make unless you skip flour altogether—and then can you even call it bread? The carbs in bread, as well as the sugar, in “normal” breads are typically high, while the protein and fat are low. It’s the exact opposite with this keto bread recipe—fat and protein are increased, while carbs and sugars barely make it per serving.

Low carb ketogenic bread recipe – Nutritional information

I know there are a lot of low carb recipes and keto recipes out there, but this keto bread is really worth trying!

One slice of this low carb bread recipe contains approximately:

• 65 calories
• 3.1 grams of protein
• 6 grams of fat
• 2.4 grams of carbohydrates
• 1.2 grams of fiber
• 0.4 grams of sugar
• 74 milligrams of sodium
• 5.3 milligrams of cholesterol
• 1 milligram of iron (5.6 percent DV)
• 19 milligrams of calcium (1.5 percent DV)
• 70 international units of vitamin A (1.4 percent DV)

As you can see, this recipe may not be the lowest-carb bread, but it’s pretty close, with just over 2 grams of carbs per slice. How does typical bread compare? Just one slice of a 100 percent whole-wheat sandwich bread can easily contain around 15 grams of carbs! This same example slice would only have 1 gram of fat compared to the 6 grams of fat per slice in this recipe. What about sugar? A slice of whole-wheat can easily have 6 grams or more per slice, while this keto bread has almost no sugar per slice at just 0.4 grams! And I’m using a relatively healthy bread for comparison, so this keto bread recipe is seriously impressive. ( 11 )

Pretty much all of the carbs in this recipe come from coconut flour and almond flour, and I’m talking about almond flour which is made from just one ingredient: almonds. So how many carbs are in almond flour? In one cup of almond flour, there are only 6 grams of carbs and 6 grams of protein — that’s like nut protein powder! (12) Some keto bread recipes use flaxseed meal instead of almond/coconut flour, while other recipes include psyllium powder, which aren’t bad ideas since both ingredients are keto-friendly and increase the fiber content.

What else does this keto bread have to offer? It’s packed with beneficial protein from egg whites — just remember to opt for organic, free-range eggs, which are known to be more nutrient-dense. ( 13 ) This recipe also provides some vitamin A thanks largely to the grass-fed butter. Vitamin A is great for your immune system, eye health, skin health, and more. ( 14 )

Low carb ketogenic bread recipe – How to make it

Before you start making this low carb bread recipe, make sure to preheat your oven to 200 degrees.

The first thing you’ll need to do is separate six eggs. You’ll only be using the egg whites for this keto bread recipe, so feel free to set the yolks aside and save them for another recipe.

Add cream of tartar to the egg whites.

Using a hand mixer, start by whipping the eggs.

You can stop whipping once soft peaks are formed.

Add the almond flour, butter, baking soda, apple cider vinegar, and coconut flour to a food processor and blend until well combined.

Place the mixture from the food processor into a bowl and gently fold in the egg white mixture.

Pour the bread mixture into a greased loaf pan.

Place the pan in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.

Your bread should come out just browned on top!

Let the bread cool slightly before slicing. Then, serve and enjoy! If you want to enjoy it later, skip the microwave and pop a slice in the toaster.
