Let’s face it – one of the biggest things people miss on a low carb lifestyle is bread. That’s why my low carb bread recipes recipe index is constantly one of the most popular areas on Wholesome Yum, and why I’m always so excited to create new ones. This Atkins and keto 90 second bread with almond flour is the latest.
When Atkins asked me to create an Atkins-friendly low carb recipe, right away I thought of making Atkins bread. And because so many of us are in a rush these days, I thought that a 90 second keto microwave bread could help many of you.
Atkins 20 is comparable to the keto diet, but overall Atkins allows for more flexibility as it encourages people to incorporate foods back into their meals and find their carb tolerance level. Atkins 20, Atkins 40, and Atkins 100 are three low carb eating approaches, each representing the number of net carbs they allow. Having these options is great to cover a wide range of low carb needs.
One thing I really like about all of these Atkins programs is that the latest guidelines emphasize real food like vegetables and meat, especially in their new Eat Right, Not Less book. And with their “Hidden Sugar Effect” initiative – calling attention to foods that you think are healthy that actually turn into sugar when digested – they are committed to teaching people to make smarter eating choices.
All that being said, sometimes I just want a sandwich! Just not a wheat or carb-filled one. And when I’m in a hurry, nothing beats enjoying a sandwich on 90-second bread…
What Is Keto 90 Second Bread?
Keto 90 second bread is a low carb, grain-free bread that you can make basically in 90 seconds. It’s perfect if you want an Atkins bread, keto bread, or just a general low carb bread.
Technically, the time is a little more because you need a couple minutes to stir together the ingredients. But in the microwave, the cook time is about 90 seconds. (And if you don’t have a microwave, don’t worry – I’ve got instructions for the oven, too!)
I’m not sure who came up with microwave bread first, but I’m pretty sure it started out using wheat flour and wasn’t low carb. These days, the name “90 second bread” seems to indicate a low carb microwave bread, and there are various versions of it.
In fact, my low carb English muffin is essentially a 90 second bread recipe. Many of you reported making it for sandwiches and general-purpose bread uses, when you don’t have time to make cloud bread or almond flour bread (both of which I also love!).
I still make that one a lot but wanted to improve it. And, many people ask about a 90 second bread with almond flour only, whereas the other version also includes coconut flour. So, I made some adjustments, and came up with an improved, chewier 90 second bread recipe…
Ingredients for the Best 90 Second Bread Recipe
So, what’s the secret to the best 90 second bread with almond flour? How to achieve a better texture? Psyllium husk powder! I used it in my popular easy low carb bread recipe, and was excited to create what is essentially similar to an Atkins, keto microwave bread version of that.
Here are all the ingredients you’ll need to make this chewy bread:
- Butter
- Almond flour
- Psyllium husk powder
- Baking powder
- Sea salt
- Egg
That’s it! Just 5 ingredients, not including the sea salt, which we exclude from the count by convention.
If you are dairy-free, you can make the 90 second bread recipe with coconut oil. Or if you’re only avoiding milk proteins, ghee would also work.
Either way, the psyllium husk powder is the key to making this keto 90 second bread chewy and giving it a texture that’s like real wheat bread. And as a bonus, it adds plenty of fiber!
How To Make 90 Second Bread – Oven or Microwave
The process for how to make 90 second bread is super simple. The original recipe was for the microwave, but you can also make it in the oven. If you are making the 90 second bread in the oven, preheat it before starting on the other steps.
To start, melt the butter (or ghee or coconut oil) in a glass rectangular container, like this one. It’s oven-safe, so you can use it for both the microwave and oven methods. I melt the butter right in the microwave, but for the oven method, you can melt it on the stove first and then pour it into the container. It usually takes about 30 seconds in my microwave.
Meanwhile, stir together the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Once the butter is melted, add the flour mixture to it, then whisk in the egg. Stir it all together and smooth the top so that the batter is distributed evenly.
Time to cook the 90 second keto bread. Zap it in the microwave for 90 seconds, or bake it in the oven for about 15 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when it’s firm and spring-y on top. It will also retract away from the edges a bit.
Just in case any edges are stuck, run a knife between the bread and the container on the sides, then flip over onto a plate or paper towel.
You’ll end up with a thick, rectangular piece of bread. Cut it in half to make 2 square pieces. Perfect for a sandwich!
If you want them thinner, you can also slice them in half. The exact size and thickness will vary depending on the container you used, though.
One last step! Stick the bread slices into a toaster. I’m sure you’re impatient to try it, but trust me, it’s so much better that way! And to me, it removes any lingering egg-y taste or smell.
How To Use and Store 90 Keto Second Bread
My favorite way to use keto 90 second bread is for sandwiches. It’s so quick! My go-to lunch is a turkey sandwich with lettuce and homemade avocado mayo.
Homemade Atkins bread is also delicious smeared with some grass-fed butter or nut butter. I usually pair that with some kind of veggies as part of my meal to make sure I’m getting other nutrients.
And for breakfast? That’s my favorite. Try a breakfast sandwich with egg, cheese, and either sausage or bacon.
If you want to make the 90 second bread recipe in advance, you can! I don’t recommend mixing the batter and letting it sit, though. Instead, cook it and store for later.
You can keep it on the counter for about a day, in the fridge for about a week, or freeze for longer. You can even use multiple containers to make it in bulk, and freeze. That way, you’ll always have pre-sliced, Atkins-friendly bread on hand. Just toast and eat!

Recipe Notes
Serving size: 1 thick slice (1/2 recipe)
- Blanched finely ground almond flour, like this one, is recommended for the best texture.
- Some brands of psyllium husk powder turn purple after cooking. This is safe to eat, but looks unusual. I use this psyllium husk powder and it has not turned purple for me.

I just made these tonight for supper and they turned out pretty good (baked in oven). Only thing is, they stuck to the bottom of the dish – I had to pry them out with a mini spatula. Any thoughts on what went wrong? I made 3 individual ones, measuring and mixing each one separately.
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Jennifer, Did you grease the dishes that they were baked in? For some reason the baking process in the oven causes a bit more “stickage” than when cooked in the microwave.
Charise H.
I love this recipe. I almost gave up on making keto bread. Thank you for a wonderful recipe. It came out great. I used 1/2 tsp of guar gum for psyllium husk. Still came out great.
Shaheen
Hello, I do not have Psyllium Husk Powder. Is it optional?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Shaheen, The psyllium husk powder adds elasticity to your bread. You can leave it out, but it will be more fragile and taste more eggy.
Abby
Hi,
I was wondering if I can add oat fiber to this & if so how much would you suggest ?
Wholesome Yum M
Hi Abby, I have not tested this recipe with oat fiber. If you try it, please share how it turned out.
Iris
I have made this twice so far, each time came out perfectly. The first time I used a round ramekin and the second I used a rectangular dish.
Linda Lee
I doubled the recipe and follow the instructions. I was delighted to find it easy to make and delicious too!
Brenda
Great recipe. Even my hubby liked it, and seriously he is super fussy.
Brenda
Well this is the best one I have found, and put stew on it and it was great as a dumpling replacer. Thank you so much for posting this recipe. As I get I’ll when I eat wheat, now I have a really good replacer, so quick, and easy also!
Ali
OMG – I have not had any bread for over a week and I made this bread tonight. What a relief to discover this recipe – I love it. I will be making this daily I am sure to make a sandwich for lunch or toast for breakfast. Gorgeous. No issues in my microwave. I cooked it on 800w for 1 minute 40 seconds. Just perfect. Tastes amazing. Great texture for a sandwich! Thanks.
Joelle
Made this and LOVE it… added fresh rosemary and Parmesan cheese… delicious. I agree that toasting it after is a must!
Becky
Wow! I’ve really been missing bread and sandwiches while on keto. I loved this bread! I didn’t have any psyllium husk so skipped that but it still turned out well and crispy once toasted. I topped it with mayo, lettuce, and BBQ pork. Such a yummy treat!
Carol
Made this a couple of days ago. Easy. My rectangular dish was a too big so it was very flat – probably also due to me leaving out the psyllium husk powder because I didn’t have that. Didn’t taste like any bread I ever had but I like it. Toasted it and it held up well making a chicken salad sandwich one day and a fish sandwich another day. The calories and fat bother me some but it’s not like I’ll be eating it every day. Thanks for the recipe.
Elisa
Thanks for this recipe! Fast and easy.
Definitely has an eggy taste but when made into a sandwich you don’t notice so much.
Holds up well.
Definitely will be using for my ‘sandwich fix!’
Cynthia Anderson
I made two of these breads tonight, cut them each in half and toasted them and my d-i-l and I had tuna salad sandwiches with romaine lettuce tonight for supper. They were very tasty!
Carolyn
I aim to follow a mostly-Paleo way of eating. Do you have a substitution recommendation for the psyllium husk powder? It is only 1 tsp and therefore not a huge deal-breaker, but after doing some quick research this ingredient is not recommended by the Paleo community. Thank you!!
Paula
Great recipe. My first ever low carb bread anything. I made this without the psyllium husk powder, just because I didn’t have any. Also, made it all in one small bowl. First, melted the butter, added the pinch of salt, and whisked, then added the egg and whisked some more. Then the baking power and almond flour, and whisked all together. And microwaved for 90 seconds. After that there are any number of directions to go. I decided on a pancake and plopped the whole thing into a frying pan and lightly browned both sides and topped with Walden Farms no calories, no carb, no anything strawberry syrup. Was wonderful.
Karen Muñoz
You’re recipe is delicious, quick and satisfying. I used ghee in place of melted butter and forgot the pinch of salt AND it came out great. I get off work at midnight and this was very easy to prepare! Wonderful toasted with salted butter. This will be my daily go to bread! Thank you!
Holly
The only bread recipe I use now!!
Ashley
How is this recipe make ahead?
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Ashley, this recipe can be made in the microwave as you need it but it can also be made in the oven to keep on hand. It keeps in the fridge for about a week or can be frozen to keep on hand for a longer period of time.
Debbie
Made it, but tastes like almond flour and egg. Nothing like bread I afraid, but impossible to get flour taste from almond flour and the whole egg makes it taste like an omelette. Not criticizing, just saying how it tastes to me.
Judy C.
I use only the egg white, sometimes using 2 medium egg whites, because most low carb bread tastes like omelette stop me. Makes a huge difference in the taste and while it doesn’t taste like wheat, I still really enjoy it. My go to Keto mug bread recipe!
Craig Olshlager
I love this recipe..but…since I’m also trying to lose weight…..I changed the recipe a bit. I now use 4 TBSP’S of Almond Flour, I use 3 Egg Whites instead of whole Egg …and two TBSP’s of Non-Fat Plain Greek Yogurt in stead of butter…..(I also add 1/8 teaspoon of Glucomannen to thicken……and it comes out GREAT!! Like a piece of white bread..and only about 220 calories!
Debbie Morris
I tried this today – cooked mine in a round Pyrex cereal bowl and it came out perfect for a hamburger bun – just the right size! I toasted it as suggested and it made a great burger, easily sliced in two. This one’s a keeper – thanks!!
Joe
I just tried this tonight and I LOVE it! I ordered a package of psyllium husk powder from Amazon yesterday and waited patiently for it to arrive today. It arrived about 8:45 PM and I immediately got to work in the kitchen. I honestly didn’t know what to expect. I watched the bread “form” while looking through the microwave glass. And when it was done I was happy to find out how easy it was to cut and it didn’t stick to the bowl. Heated it up in the toaster and then took a bite. It is amazing. And for someone who was getting tired of paying $7.99 for a loaf of low-carb bread, this is an incredible find. Thanks for the recipe! And as others have stated, there are so many other things that can be done with this recipe. This weekend I think I will have some french toast (with low-carb syrup of course).
AJ Q
I make this all of the time. I keep a mixture of the dry ingredients on hand to mix up quickly in the morning. I’ll supply the measurements in grams at the end of my review. I’ve made this in both the microwave and the oven. They both have advantages and disadvantages. I’ve found that cooking it in the microwave, obviously quicker, produces a thicker, although eggier tasting bread. While cooking it in the oven results in a thinner product, it can still be sliced down the middle and I find it much less eggier tasting. Cooking it in the oven is my preference. To make a batch of the dry ingredients that equals 10 times the original recipe (20 servings): 210g Almond Flour, 20g of psyllium husk, 48g baking powder and 10g of sea salt. 28g of the mixture is equal to the dry ingredients of one original recipe.
Dale
Hi I haven’t made this yet, but sounds delicious. How much does this recipe make? Could I double this recipe?
Craig
OMG!! This is an AMAZING RECIPE!! You have changed my life!! I was getting tired of low carb tortillas. I had an ACTUAL PEANUT BUTTER Sandwich with this…and THIS bread was only 6 carbs!!! AMAZING!! Thank you!! Can’t wait to try Grilled Cheese!
Michele Rusk
I made this and added Everything But The Bagel mix, cooked it in a Dash Mini Waffle Bowl maker and it was wonderful. This did away with the toasting time. I put a little tuna spread inside and folded it in half. It made for a nice tidy Thank you for your yummy recipes.
Laura
I just started a low carb diet yesterday and am already missing my bread. I came across your website and like another poster am SO excited about trying your recipes. I have been on a low carb diet before but tend to eat the same things over and over again. Being able to eat bread opens up so many possibilities. Can’t wait to make the bread and pizza AND DESSERTS!!!
Kim
Made this tonight! It was yummy. Just for clarification, the nutritional information you have posted below is for 1/2 of the recipe? So the full recipe would be 300 calories and 26 grams of fat? I made this in a small square dish and didn’t really make that much. Going to try the rectangular dish as you have shown and see if spreads. I ate the whole thing and now kicking myself! I should have paid more attention to the serving size…
Wholesome Yum
Hi Kim, you’re correct — the nutrition information is for half the recipe.
Becky
Well I have to say I started making this with a fair amount of reservation. BUT! I enjoyed it! Toasted it, think whoa this is super rubbery, (since read the Kim’s comment!) popped some butter on it and I was cooking some bolognese sauce so dipped it into the juices. really really good!! In fact I’m excited to try it with a whole host of other stuff. Still not sure about cold as a sandwich, so that will be the next challenge! Many thanks Maya, you’re making this journey a lot of fun!!
Casey
Would I be able to make a loaf of bread with this recipe?
Wholesome Yum
Hi Casey, I don’t think this recipe is suitable for a loaf, at least not in the microwave. I haven’t tested scaling it up that much for the oven. This easy almond flour bread recipe would be a good alternative, though.
Nmtete
Easy to follow, yummy and much appreciated. Added some onion, chives and black pepper to give it a savory twist.
Heidi
Oh my goodness! This was so good! I was honestly sceptical but this has wowed me! Thank you for this recipe ♡♡◇
Amy
Added a little cheddar cheese and rosemary spice to the keto bread recipe. It tasted great with our chicken, corn on the cob, and zucchini on the grill!
Melissa Luciano
I think I’m going to do just that! Great suggestion!
Holly McIntyre
I didn’t have psyllium husk powder, so I decided to substitute xanthan gum. It still turned out awesome! This will be my go to from now on. Thanks!
Hilary
What are the dimensions of the rectangular glass dish that you use? The amazon links takes me to a page with multiple items on it including at least two sizes of glass dish.
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Hilary, the glass dish was 8 x 6.5 inches.
Brie
Great & quick bread recipe, thank you for sharing! Totally hits the spot when a bread craving comes on. By far the best keto “bread” recipe I’ve tried! I add little Italian seasoning for flavor, yum.
Tena Jenkins
Maya when will you make a hard cover keto cookbook. I know everything today is digital but I’m old school and prefer a hardcover cookbook
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Tena, I have a cookbook you can order here!
Kim
This must be everyone’s “go-to” recipe. So far it definitely is the best one. Just don’t let it sit in the microwave to long or it’ll get rubbery. Slice it & toast it for better flavor & texture!
Valerie g Edward
When your recipes call for psyllium, do you mean like unsweetened metamucil? I tried using that and the results had a strange slightly microscopic crunchy texture.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Valerie, Metamucil has other ingredients, so it’s not the same thing. The psyllium husk powder I use is linked on the recipe card above.
Mike
Hello, this is a very nice recipe. I make this in a little plastic five and a quarter inch square sandwich box. It comes out rather thin. I try to slice it in half in order to get two slices, however it’s too thin. aside from doubling the entire recipe, is there a way to simply make the bread thicker so I can slice it in half and have two slices?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Mike, I made this in a rectangular container and cut it in half across, not sliced. You’d just need a smaller container if you want to slice it.
Mike
I was hoping to use the same container and just add more almond flour, or maybe more baking powder, or both? Not sure, so just wanted to check and see
Maya | Wholesome Yum
You’d need to either double the recipe or use a smaller container. Just adding some ingredients but not others won’t work.
Penny
I cannot thank you enough for this and the 90 sec. english muffin recipe. In Denmark we eat open faced sandwichs that just cannot exists without a sturdy bread base. It’s a national icon and this recipe kept me in the country!! The “white” bread I spice up with cardamom or cinnamon or loads of vanilla and just plain butter for the weekend mornings. To this, I added a lot more husk and it was perfect for my lunch. Whoever came up with this idea… Give her a prize!!!
Maureen Maddux
It was delicious! My new go to because I love sandwiches.
Peggy
I enjoy making your 90 second Keto bread, but what can I do to make it not soooo dry?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Peggy, It should not be dry. It’s hard to say what went wrong without seeing what you did, but if you used all the same ingredients, I’d guess it was cooked too long.
Maria
Hi Maya! This is my go to Keto bread recipe. It’s quick and satisfies my craving for sandwiches.
I top it with mashed avocado with a pinch of himalayan pink salt, a little squeeze of lemon, and a dash of paprika. Then I top it with a thin slice of onions and tomatoes. You can add arugula with it.
I follow your tip of toasting it first to take out the “eggy” taste/smell.
Thank you for this wonderful recipe. i’ve yet to try the white keto bread.
Melissa
I was wondering if I can use Xantham Gum to substitute the Psyllium husk?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Melissa, I don’t think so, the volumes are too different.
Rebecca
You can use flax seed meal in the same amount as a sub for psyllium husk. I know because I”m allergic to flax and have to use a sub (psyllium husk) in most recipes! 🙂 Hope this helps!
Edi
I used 1/8 tsp. Xanthum gum bc I didn’t have psyllium husk powder, and I was very pleased with the results! Savored every bite after toasting it in a medium heat black iron skillet with butter(which added more fat and calories of course). So excited about this recipe bc I was so missing bread! I plan to purchase psyllium husk powder and try in the future though.
KC Texan
I really don’t understand this recipe. I followed it to the letter, weighing the ingredients. After checking out the glass dish on Amazon, I chose my Pyrex baking dish that measures 5″ x 7″ at the base. This should have given me bread at least as thick as in your piicture. The dough/batter was impossible to spread because there was not really enough to cover the bottom of the dish. I spent 10 minutes and finally got to the point I didn’t see any spots where the bottom of the dish showed through, After microwaving, my bread was mostly about 1/8 inch thick, up to 1/4 inch in some places. Very uneven since it was impossible to level the batter. I went back to recipe and double checked everything. I can’t see where I did anything I shouldn’t have. I know my baking powder is OK because I’ve used it successfully in two other recipes this week. I toasted it and tried it with butter. Didn’t have any flavor to speak of. Sorry, it’s a big failure for me.
Wholesome Yum A
Hi KC, there must have been an ingredient problem here, since the batter should still be somewhat liquid when it goes in the pan and you shouldn’t have to spread it around. You can also play with different spices and seasonings to add more flavor if you like.
Anna
Hi I’ve just made your recipe now, I haven’t tried it yet but I found it rather thick to spread before placing in the oven. I was just wondering about the conversion table. I started off with tablespoon and teaspoon measurements (although I must admit I don’t really know how much a tablespoon really is so I did rounded ones. But then, after putting it in the oven, I checked out the metric measurements and for the 3 tablespoons of almond flour, it said 21g!! Surely it can’t be?? That might be per tablespoon, but not all three?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Anna, With baking you can’t really eyeball or estimate the amount of flour. The recipe needs 3 measured tablespoons (using measuring spoons), not rounded ones. 21 grams is the correct weight for 3 tablespoons, yes. It sounds like you used more, so that’s probably why it was too thick to spread. Hope you’ll try it again with the right amounts. 🙂
Mary Bostow
Have tried many 90 second breads by far this is the best… Fantastic!!!! This is a wonderful recipe. Thank you for sharing!
Sherri
Bread in 90 seconds! Amazing! I do have some almond flour in my fridge so I will have to give it a try!
Natalie
Oh wow, I didn’t know making keto bread would be so easy. This recipe was really great and bread was so delicious. Soft and flavorful.
Colleen
Being GF, I’m always looking for new ways to make bread. This one looks like a winner. Can’t wait to try it.
Christie
That husk powder sounds interesting. It always amazes me how people figure these things out. Definitely going to get some and try it before sharing with Dad.
Shayelyn
I made this twice, once in the microwave, once in the oven. I think I prefer the oven. I used a glass bread pan both times. My bread didn’t get thick enough to slice in half. When I cooked it in the oven, I added some bagel everything seasoning to the top. I love how light the bread is compared to the heavier feel to bagels made with coconut flour.
Mer
This is another slam dunk. I made a cold turkey and cheese and a warm grilled cheese sandwich with this recipe! This recipe really scratches that “sandwich bread” itch. THANK YOU!!
Liz
This was delicious!! I added some chopped pecans before microwaving then I topped with low carb chia strawberry spread and it was like eating the real thing!! I had missed something sweet with my coffee in the morning and this hit the spot! Thank you!
Maria
I made a 90 second keto bread without the psyllium-was not in the recipe-and it tasted very eggy. Does the psyllium help with that? Also, does baking the bread in the oven give it a different texture?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Maria, Yes, the psyllium does help. Toasting it also helps. Texture is similar with baking, but it gets more golden.
Sandra
Thank you for this recipe. I just made it in a bread shaped container. I let it cool a few seconds and sliced it in half. Will toast it at your recommendation, and make a sandwich to take to the senior center for lunch. I was in such a hurry to try it, that when I came back to my Kindle, I found I still had it on the printer page. LOL
Judy
Excellent, made it exactly like the recipe then split it and toasted. Will be making this again for sure.
Kim Cole
I love bread and have not had ANY since starting keto 3 months ago so was very anxious to try this. Not only is it super simple and quick but tastes GREAT!!! I am so pleased!
Tish
Fast, easy, yum!
Joel Calkins
Oh. My. God.
10pm and I decided now was the time to try this recipe for the first time. Made it in round 4″ dish then cut into three slices. Hmm… Pizza?
Threw the slices on the Rival Pizzazz to toast, whipped up some 20 second pizza sauce, shedded 10 second mozzarella, put both on the toasted slices with pepperoni and salami and olives, then waited. Pizzas came out perfect. This recipe was perfect for it. Probably because of the other additions we didn’t taste the egg. I haven’t had anything breadlike in over three months. This was awesome. AWESOME! I will use this recipe again and again.
Eileen
Hi your bread turned out great, no queries about that, BUT I have a big question in regards to calorie count. When I did the math, I came up with over 300 calories. Which did in fact make it equal to most other 90 second bread recipes I had found. Disappointing. Your 3 Tablespoons of almond flour alone takes you past you calorie prediction.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Eileen, I’m glad you liked it! This recipe makes 2 servings (2 large slices). A serving is 1 slice, and the nutrition info listed is per serving.
Mattie Sorvala
Love love love this and how easy it was!
Cindy Solgere
How many times would you multiply your 90 second bread recipe for a loaf pan?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Cindy, It would depend on the size of your loaf pan. I’d get 6 to 10 times?
Verna
This is the best keto bread I have tried! I made it in a ramekin and ate it with butter. I can see that size being great for a breakfast on the go with egg, bacon and cheese on it. (Where did I get that idea?)
Sharon
Our family loves this bread. I make several batches at a time & put in a 9 X 11 glass pan and bake in the oven at 350 F & then cut into squares when cool & cut each square in half.
However, cannot use for kids lunches as they are not allowed food with nuts at the school. Have you ever tried making this with coconut flour? Thanks again
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Sharon! I don’t have a coconut flour version yet, it wouldn’t be a 1:1 replacement. In the meantime you can try this coconut flour bread.
Me
Can you give me amounts for making a whole loaf at a time?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
It depends on the size of your pan and how tall you want the loaf to be. I’d suggest multiplying the recipe by 8 and starting with that, then adjust for next time if you want a different size.
Emily
I will admit, mixing it up I was a little skeptical. I used a 6×8 inch glass dish and I thought there is no way this will work. I thought it would be way to thin and way to eggy. But it turned out great, I cut it in half to make 2 slices of bread. It held up great in my panini press, we love hot sandwiches and have been missing them. My husband says it was really good and I can make sandwiches like that anytime.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you and your husband liked the bread, Emily! Thank you!
Nikki
I’m confused… the configuration is adding another egg for every 2 slices of bread…. so for a regular 20 piece loaf, I’m supposed to use 10 eggs!??
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Nikki, This recipe makes 2 very large, thick slices (about 6×4 inches each and 1/2-inch thick). You’d only need 10 eggs if your pan was at least 10 inches long, 6 inches wide, and at least 4 inches tall. Otherwise I’d probably not multiply the recipe by that many times if your pan is a more typical 9×5 or 8×4 loaf pan.

Your recipe would be a lot more useful if you had included the AMOUNT of each ingredient.

Alicia
Hi! I’m new to your site. I have a question, can we buy the ingredients in the store and which ones do you recommend? I’m so new to Keto and just trying to learn as much as I can. The Psyllium Husk Powder, is that the same as Bob’s Red Mill brand?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Alicia, Welcome to the site! I hope you come back often. Many ingredients are available in store but some area easier to find online. All my recipes have links to the ingredients I use on the recipe card, so you can click those to buy them. To answer your question about psyllium husk powder, Bob’s Red Mill brand does have this product and there are others. This is the one I used for this recipe.
Karen fisher
Hi. I am interested in trying this recipe except the link you provide for the psyllium husk powder takes me to Amazon products such as Metamucil and Now brand. Could you please just provide the name of the brand that you use. Thanks. Karen
Wholesome Yum L
Hi Karen, the links in the recipes are the brands that I like to use when cooking.
Lola
This turned out really good! I made one last week that wasn’t as good, I think the psyllium husk adds a bit of a sturdiness to it and butter taste better than oil, lol, duh right! Thank you for the recipe.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Lola! Have a great day!
Jodi
When I put this in carb manager it says 3 net carbs, but I noticed you have it as 1 net carb? Just double checking
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Jodi, The nutrition info on the recipe card is correct. Sometimes there are discrepancies with calculators, but my nutrition info comes from the USDA Food Database which would be the most reliable. That being said, it can vary depending on the exact ingredients and brands you use.
Jodi
I made this yesterday and loved it. It was the first Keto bread recipe I tried and will definitely be my go to. I didn’t have the Psyllium husk powder but it was still great. Thanks for all your great recipes!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked it, Jodi! Have a great day!
Kelly Howell
I didn’t have the psyllium husk powder either, but since I’m not gluten intolerant I used Vital Wheat Gluten (really high protein and low carb – 4 carbs per TBSP – and this recipe calls for only one tsp! Yea!!). This really increased the protein and even though I hate trying new recipes that I have to make substitutions, this was GREAT!!
Thank you! I’m new to Keto, and this recipe will make the difference for me, I’m sure! LOL Love your blog!
Jodi
I loved this one. I was really craving bread and this hit the spot. This is the first bread recipe I have ever tried and will be my go to. I didn’t have Psyllium husk powder so I skipped it. Can’t wait to try it with it.
Thank you for all the great recipes!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
You are welcome, Jodi!
JRZ
I love this recipe. So easy and quick. And the most important aspect: it is the best low carb bread that I have tried. Good texture, no weird taste, it is excellent. Thank you for sharing this recipe. Highly recommended.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you!
Kathleen Labounty
Best darn grilled cheese ever! I added 1 tsp of ground flax. Yum!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Kathleen! Thanks for stopping by!
sandra villarreal
I gave this a try and added pumpkin seeds, cinnamon and a little erythritol. I love this very easy and fast to make. I love that you can make this Keto/Paleo because we have both living in the home. Yahoo I can have bread whenever I want and not pay $6.00 for a small loaf.
Thank you.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yay! I am happy you like the bread, Sandra! Thanks for stopping by!
Lori
This is a great recipe! It really does have a bread-like texture. I actually used ground flax seed because I don’t use psyllium husk.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Lori! Good to know that worked for you with ground flax seed.
Malaika
Is psyllium fiber powder the same thing? I feel like it is but I want to make sure!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Malaika, Yes, it’s the same thing.
Claudia
Hi there, Just tried the bread! It was delicious! When I looked at the nutrition, it came out that there is a lot more calories, fat and carbs in it than the recipe shows.
I love the bread – just wanted to let you know!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Claudia, I’m glad you liked the bread. Nutrition info for all ingredients comes from the USDA Food Database, so is accurate.
Sara
Does it work to grind psyllium husk flakes into powder?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sara, Yes, you can! Just grind finely and then measure for the recipe once it’s ground to a powder.
Sara
Great texture…I baked a single recipe in my small cast iron pan and it came out beautifully. Still a bit too egg-y tasting but will read the comments and see if someone came up with an alteration that would help this.
Thanks!
Diane
This sounds GREAT! Can’t wait to try.
What size is the small rectangular dish is it? doesn’t sound like a 9×13.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thanks for stopping by, Diane. This is the dish I used. Enjoy!
Sandie
Never will someone find a recipe so simple and so good! I added a few pinches of Italian seasoning, pepper flakes, chia seeds … yum! Thanks so much for the great recipes and the nutritional value on each !!!! Love your site 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Sandie! Thanks for stopping by!
Anna
It tastes great! Mine got stuck to my glass pan though, any suggestions?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I’m glad you liked the taste, Anna! It could be that it needed to cook a little longer. It tends to stick if it’s not fully done. Otherwise you can also grease the pan first to be on the safe side, though I usually don’t.
Lynda
Really good. I added different spices and used different size containers to cook the bread in. I did 4 different times. One flavored for spicy sandwich bread, another for pizza bread round and a smaller round for breakfast to use with eggs/bacon/cheese so I added cheese to bread mix without affecting cook time. Finally did one that has a slightly sweet taste with cinnamon and a bit of Swerve. I wondered if adding the Swerve would affect cooking but it did not. It was not real sweet but met my sweet tooth that night while making.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I love all of your fun suggestions, Lynda! Thanks for sharing with us!
Kirsten
My son loves toast with peanut butter and honey. I made this 90 Second Keto Bread, toasted it, and added peanut butter and Sukrin Gold Fiber Syrup. Awesome!!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy your son liked it, Kirsten! Thanks for stopping by!
Deb
I feel like I died and went to heaven. Have been eating burgers bunless, but no more. I ate the whole thing after slicing in half and toasting, for a whole 2 net carbs, wow! And very filling.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy to hear that, Deb! Please come back again soon!
Maria
Hi—-and thanks. Your 90 sec bread recipe motivated me to start low carb bread making again. Something i needed very much to do. I liked it as is, but decided to try this: 2 tablespoons of almond flour and 1 tablespoon of oat fiber (and the other ingredients as listed—the psyllium husk is a stroke of genius). I think the texture and taste is more “bready”—-less almond flavored this way, and worth a try for anyone who has some oat fiber on hand. Also a little lower in carbs, but not much. Thanks again for your inspiring website and this recipe.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you stopped by, Maria! Have a great day!
Susan
I am allergic to almonds. What to use instead of almond flour?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Susan, You can try sunflower seed meal, but the flavor would be a bit different.
Becca
I might just be drawing a blank, but I cannot find the amounts of the ingredients to make this recipe. I HAVE all the ingredients but how much of each am I using? So sorry if it’s somewhere in the article but I cannot find it. Thank you!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Becca, The ingredient amounts and instructions are on the recipe card right above the comment form.
Jeannine Mellott
I modified this a bit and it tastes much more bread-like to me. Instead of 3 T of almond flour, I used 1.5 T almond flour, 1 T coconut flour and 0.5 T flaxseed meal. It did not smooth out as well, but did a great job with wet fingertips!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thanks for sharing your substitutions with us, Jeannine!
Shane
Hi Maya. Just wanted to say I have just tried this and so far love it (hoping that it was not beginners luck) I have been placed on the FODMAP diet and buying bread to suit gets rather costly. This costs very little and very little time to make, so now I have fresh bread to make first thing in the morning for my lunch at work. Love this web site. My next try will be the low carb loaf to trick my naysayer friends that it’s just as good but better for them compared to their store bought loaves.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Good luck with the bread, Shane! Thank you for stopping by!
Catherine
This is by far the best recipe I tried for Keto bread! And so easy to make. I made the recipe x5 and it still turned out wonderful. I bake it in the oven every time and the 15 is spot on! Thank you 🙂
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Catherine! I love hearing that.
Juli
Do I need to use gluten free baking powder?
Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Juli, Any baking powder will work!
Christine
Better in oven or microwave?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Christine, It works in either one!
Lynda
Delicious and easy! To make it ahead of time, would I toast it now or wait until I’m ready to eat it?
thank you
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Lynda! You can make it ahead but it’s best to toast it right before eating.
Cheryl Geller
Is there a difference between gluten free baking powder and regular? My bread didn’t rise and doesn’t look at all like yours. It was also very hard to get out of the glass pan.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Cheryl, There is no difference in terms of rising. Many brands of baking powder are naturally gluten-free, just not all, so I mention it just in case for people that want to be GF. If your bread didn’t rise, it might be that the baking powder isn’t fresh enough, or it could be that the batter wasn’t mixed well enough. I’d check those two things for next time.
Vince
Made it just like the recipe but added Trader Joe’s Everything seasoning and a pinch of stevia powder. Cooked it in a 12 oz ramekin in the microwave. Best keto bread I’ve tried! Excellent texture, excellent flavor, and very durable. Next I’ll try quadrupling the recipe to make enough for 4 sandwiches. Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Vince! It sounds delicious with that seasoning. I actually quadrupled the recipe last week, using several larger containers at once, and it worked great (with a bit longer cook time). Hope it worked for you, too!
Linda
Have you ever made it in a glass pie plate and used it for pizza crust? I love this bread and I am dying for a pizza. Tried them all and they don’t taste good to me.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Linda, I haven’t tried that. I think this would be too soft and fluffy for pizza crust, and the batter likely would be too thin to press into the sides of a glass pie plate. Have you tried this fathead pizza crust?
Michelle
Oh my gosh!! I was so nervous but hopeful about this recipe… It was FANTASTIC! I really, really do not enjoy eggy flavored anything (other than plain eggs). This was awesome and I just finished eating a delicious BLT. Thank you so much!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I am so happy you liked the bread, Michelle! Thanks for stopping by!
Deana Dorscher
So I couldnt find psyllium husk powder anywhere. So I substututed flax seed that tried to make flax powder (fail), they still looked whole. I used the flax any way and about 1/16 teaspoon of xanthan gum powder, otherwise everything else was the same. It turned out really good. I liked the crunchy flax seeds.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you for sharing, Deana! Good to hear those substitutions work. If you ever want to try with psyllium husk powder, the link to the one I use is on the recipe card.
Diana
I was soooo skeptical about this recipe. I tried it tonight. I can not believe how wonderful it taste as well as the fact that the texture is excellent. I used orange flavored psillium husk powder and it made the most wonderful toast and eggs. I am very excited to try your other recipes now. Thank you very much for your commitment to finding the perfect , and so very easy, recipes.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Diana! Toast and eggs with this sounds awesome.
Marsha
Thank you. I will try his recipe.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hope you’ll like it, Marsha!
Esther Erlich
This the the best 90sec keto bread I’ve had. Thank you, Maya.
I’m so happy it’s only 150 calories and 1g net carbs. I have it with sliced cheese and tuna with olive oil. It’s so filling, I feel full for hours.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Esther! Having it with sliced cheese and tuna sounds amazing.
Doreen
These are really great! SO useful when low carbing and gluten free (Using GF baking powder!). Thank you so much!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
I’m so glad to hear that, Doreen! Thank for stopping by!
Sheila
Delicious! So excited to have bread that quick and easy.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you, Sheila!
Jeanie
Maya, we used this bread for breakfast sandwiches this morning. It was unanimous that this is the best sandwich bread our family has had since going keto 9 months ago! It is perfect. Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Jeanie! I love hearing that!
Susan
Can this recipe be doubled or even tripled and baked in a larger dish?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Susan, I haven’t tried that yet, but possibly! I’m not 100% sure if it would rise enough and cook through with a larger batch. You might need to use a lower oven temp like 325 and bake for a while. Let me know how it goes if you try!
Jeanie
We doubled it! Worked great! Used a slightly larger baking dish than recipe called for. =)
Jeanie
And we made no other changes. Hope that helps.
Richard
Did you still use the microwave or conventional oven?
Donna Theiss
Just made this for the first time. So easy, love it. Thank you.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Yay, thank you, Donna!
Linda Emery
Don’t have psyllium husk powder. Can I use an alternative?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Linda, Psyllium is required for this recipe, otherwise it turns out totally different. You can get it here.
Sheila A Cannon
I would love to try this. I could not find the amounts of the ingredients.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Sheila, The ingredients and instructions are on the recipe card right above the comment area.
Marjorie Bartlett
I haven’t heard of pysillium husk flour before. What is the equivalent product in England? I am keen to try the 90sec bread.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Marjorie, It’s the same product in the UK, but looks like different brands are available. Here is one you can get in the UK.
Maureen Galie
What are the dimensions of the glass container that you use for this recipe? It sounds great!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Maureen, This is the glass container I use.
Ronalyn
The container in your Amazon link is 8 x 6 x 3. The amount of batter the recipe makes wouldn’t be enough by my calculations. Am I wrong? I made it yesterday in a 4×5 glass container, because all I have, and sliced it in half crossways. Today I doubled the recipe and baked it in a 5 x 5 square container but it isn’t thick enough to slice crossways and too small to cut in half. I love the texture and taste and want to make it again after I hear from you about the container size.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
The containers in the link are the exact containers I used and the pictures show the result. The batter doesn’t fill the container to the top. But, I just measured the containers and they are smaller than the 8×6 dimensions listed. They are rectangular, so you’d end up with less surface area (and a greater thickness for slicing) than a square container. If you want slices exactly like mine, you can just get the containers linked in the post. Otherwise, definitely feel free to experiment with any that you have. The recipe will still work, you’ll just end up with different sizes/shapes of slices.
Ronalyn
Wow! Thank you for your speedy reply, Maya! I just ordered the containers from Amazon.
Peter Michelson
How about giving the correct measurements for a loaf size gluten free bread recipe? That’s good if you’re doing a coffee mug size 90 sec bread. Thanks.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Peter, I don’t think this recipe is suitable for a loaf, at least not in the microwave. I haven’t tested increasing it that much for the oven. But you might like my other low carb bread recipe here, which also uses almond flour and psyllium.
Lucy Bakker
Is non-blanched almond flour better than the blanched or the vice versa?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Hi Lucy, Definitely use blanched finely ground almond flour. That’s best for the right texture. I added a note on the recipe card for the one I use.
Theodora Davis
This recipe makes me so happy!! Texture is EXACTLY like bread, light and airy. Thank you so much. My new go-to bread recipe <3
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Thank you so much, Theodora! I’m so glad to hear that!
