Free Printable: Low Carb & Keto Food List
Get It NowI first made this low carb bread recipe with almond flour during my Sunday meal planning. I had been making the flattened version of my 4-ingredient almond flour biscuits to use for sandwiches each week, but I really wanted an almond flour bread that’s closer to a traditional sandwich bread. And this is definitely one of the closest ways I’ve come to a carb-free loaf. I’ve been meal prepping it for years, but recently updated it to use a mixer and the results are even better (more on this below). Make it with me!
Why You Need My Low Carb Bread Recipe
- Chewy with air pockets and a crusty exterior – Although this almond flour bread is not quite as low in carbs as my cloud bread or white keto bread (both are lighter and fluffier), it has a taste and texture closer to regular whole wheat bread. I love the chewy texture and crusty outside!
- Just 5 ingredients – Plus water and salt. And the prep is super fast — you’ll love this recipe if your schedule is packed like mine.
- Low carb and gluten free – In fact, my low carb gluten free bread has only 2g net carbs (and just 5g total carbohydrates) per slice! It also checks lots of other boxes: grain free, paleo friendly, keto diet friendly, and dairy-free.
- Super versatile – This one is one of my favorite low carb bread recipes for everything from avocado toast to sandwiches, plus it freezes beautifully. Many of you loved it so much that I included it in my Easy Keto Cookbook, packed with 100 easy recipes designed for keto newbies, experts, busy people, diabetics, and everyone in between.
Ingredients & Substitutions
Here I explain the best ingredients for my almond flour bread recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card.
- Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour – After dozens of tests, this is the only one I use and recommend, because of its superfine grind. Many other brands are more coarse and will give your low carb bread a gritty or grainy texture. For the same reason, I don’t recommend using almond meal (unlike blanched almond flour, this is ground almonds with the skins). Sorry, coconut flour won’t work in this recipe at all, but you can make my coconut flour bread if you want to use it.
- Psyllium Husk Powder – If you haven’t heard of it before, psyllium is a type of plant fiber that helps create a chewy texture in low carb baking and also makes low carb gluten free bread recipes more sturdy. It gives this almond flour bread its chewy texture, so don’t skip it! Some brands impart a purple tint to the bread (which is harmless but doesn’t look great), so I recommend this brand that usually doesn’t do that. If you need a substitute, flaxseed meal is the closest and you can find instructions in my flaxseed bread recipe.
- Warm Water – Helps the psyllium husk “bloom,” since it absorbs a lot of moisture.
- Eggs – I’d heard recommendations of using only egg whites with psyllium, but whole eggs are more convenient. Besides, egg yolks are a natural leavener, so in my experience they help the bread rise better. You could try an egg substitute if you need one, but since this almond bread uses quite a few eggs, I don’t recommend it unless you really have to.
- Coconut Oil – I have this unrefined one. You can use refined coconut oil if you want no detectable flavor. Using butter has also turned out well for me. I haven’t tried avocado or olive oil, but other readers have told me they worked for them.
- Baking Powder – I like this brand that’s non GMO and gluten free. Don’t use baking soda, which is not the same thing.
- Sea Salt – For flavor balance.
How To Make Low Carb Bread With Almond Flour
I have step-by-step photos here to help you visualize the recipe. For full instructions with amounts and temperatures, see the recipe card.
- Combine the dry ingredients. In a large bowl, stir together the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and sea salt. (I prefer to use a whisk to break up any lumps.)
- Beat the eggs. Using an electric mixer (I have this one and love the built-in storage), beat eggs until they double in volume.
- Mix it all together. Beat the dry ingredients into the eggs. Beat in the melted coconut oil, followed by the warm water, until all the wet ingredients are well incorporated. The texture will be somewhere between a dough and a batter (so I’m using these terms interchangeably here.)
- Bake. Transfer the batter into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper, and form a rounded top with your hands or a spatula. Bake the almond flour bread until a toothpick comes out clean, the top is dark golden brown, and the loaf develops a very hard crust. Don’t miss my tips below to confirm that it’s done and avoid a gummy texture!
- Let it cool. Lift the low carb bread out of the pan and cool on a wire rack before slicing.
My Recipe Tips
- Bring your eggs are at room temperature before you start. This is important to prevent clumps in your batter.
- A smaller loaf pan works best to make the bread tall enough. I tested this recipe with a larger pan first, but now prefer this loaf pan that’s a bit smaller than most. Plus, it doesn’t stick in case the parchment paper misses some areas. It’s fine if your pan is a little bigger, but your bread won’t be as tall. I don’t recommend doubling the recipe for a larger pan, because this bread has trouble baking all the way through with more dough.
- Use high speed on your mixer. Almond flour and psyllium husk powder are both heavy ingredients, so high speed is important to create enough air bubbles. Your low carb bread can turn out dense if the speed is too low.
- Can you mix it by hand? Yes, but the bread will be more dense. I used to mix it by hand with a spatula, but get a better texture with more bubbles using an electric mixer. If you’re thinking about getting one, I highly recommend this one I have — it has multiple speeds and storage for the attachments.
- Can you use a bread maker? Yes again! Readers in my Wholesome Yum community group have told me they made this almond flour bread recipe in a bread machine. I recommend the “Quick Bread” setting with this dough, or the “Gluten Free” setting might also work.
- The eggs should double in volume. This is harder to achieve by hand, but with a mixer it’s easy. (See why I recommend the mixer?)
- Fresh baking powder is crucial here. It’s always a good idea anyway, but it’s especially important for this heavier dough.
- Note on dense texture and rising: First, reality check! This bread will not be as tall or as light as one made with white flour. But it should look like my pictures here, with air pockets and oval shaped slices. Several of my tips above are specifically to prevent it from being super dense or flat.
- This low carb bread will look done before it actually is. If you take it out too soon, it can collapse, and worse, it will be gummy inside. You can insert a toothpick to check, but continue baking for at least 10 minutes past that point. I also use the crust to check — it should be very hard and crusty when it’s done, not just golden. And in general, err on the side of more time and not less. You can always cover the top if it starts to burn, though I’ve never had to do that.
- Resist the urge to slice right away. Again, it’ll be gummy inside if you do! I usually bake it at least a day before.
- Wondering why your bread turned purple? This can happen with some brands of psyllium husk powder. It’s perfectly fine to eat. But like I said above, this brand I use doesn’t do this as often.
- Want to mask the flavor of psyllium husk powder? I don’t mind it, but if you’re not a fan, recently I’ve found that adding a tablespoon of Besti sweetener to the dough gives it more balance, without changing the texture like some sweeteners do.
- Don’t wrap it in plastic wrap or a plastic bag. It will trap moisture and ruin the texture. I recommend parchment paper and a bread box (I have this one). Sometimes it still gets a little damp or gummy with time — pop it in the toaster to fix that.

-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line the bottom of a loaf pan with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, use a hand mixer at high speed to beat the eggs until they double in volume.
-
In a second large bowl, mix together the almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and sea salt.
-
Beat the dry ingredients into the eggs.
-
Beat in the melted coconut oil, then the warm water.
-
Transfer the dough to the lined baking pan. Smooth/press the top evenly with your hands or a spatula, forming a rounded top.
-
Bake for 55-70 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the top is very hard, like a bread crust. (Important: It will pass the toothpick test before it's completely done, so make sure the top is very crusty, too.) Cool completely before removing from the pan.

Maya’s Recipe Notes
Serving size: 1 slice (slightly less than 1/2″ thick)
- Tips: Check out my recipe tips above to help your bread rise properly with air pockets, and avoid a gummy, uneven, or dense texture. I also have options for making it in a bread maker or by hand without a mixer.
- Note on loaf pan size: I originally made this recipe in a 9×5 loaf pan, but I now recommend this size for a taller loaf.
- Store: To avoid trapping moisture and ruining the texture, wrap your low carb bread in parchment paper (not plastic) and store it in a bread box. It will keep in the counter for 3-4 days or in the fridge for up to a week. It does get a little hard at the end, similar to wheat bread from the store (perfect for keto French toast or drying further into croutons). If it gets damp or gummy, toast it to restore the texture.
- Freeze: A zip lock bag is just fine for the freezer. I like to freeze slices with parchment paper between them, so they don’t stick together. You can toast them from frozen, and they’ll be good for at least 3-6 months.

0Wow! Just starting out with a low carb diet and this bread was easy and delicious! I added a heaping spoonful of Hemp seeds for there nutty flavor and fiber. Came out perfect! Totally satisfied my carb craving. Can’t wait to try more of your recipes!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy to hear that, Mark! Thanks for stopping by!
Breighan
0I’ve found a recipe for zucchini, apple and carrot bread but would like to use this version as a low carb substitute. Do you think this version would work with added wet ingredients?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Breighan, I haven’t tried that. I think you’d need to make other changes if adding wet ingredients. I have a blueberry zucchini bread recipe here you can try.
Shirley A Phillips
0I loved the bread, but I found it became moldy much too fast. On counter for 2/3 days and then in fridge. But too moldy to use. So sad!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Shirley, I recommend putting it in the fridge once cool if you won’t finish it within those first 2-3 days. Don’t leave it out for multiple days and then refrigerate after. You can also freeze slices and pop them in the toaster. I’m glad you liked it otherwise!
Darlene S
0I’ve been making this bread for several months and my husband loves it. I double the recipe and make a large loaf (I bake it 350 for 70 minutes), My gluten free family members fell in love with it while visiting this summer. We make sandwiches, and toast it for breakfast with our eggs. It is very filling so we cut thin slices. Thanks for sharing!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am happy to hear that, Darlene! Thanks for stopping by!
Christine
0Hi! I tried this the other day and it baked up strangely. I baked it for about 63 minutes and it was nice and crusty on top. It was still a bit gummy inside so I may need to bake it longer. However, when I flipped the loaf over it was very concave. The only thing I did differently is use canola oil instead of coconut oil. Any suggestions? Thanks much
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Christine, It might have been the oil as I haven’t tried it with canola. It also sounds like it needed to bake for longer – check for 200 degrees F inside using a thermometer.
doreen
0This is REALLY good. My OH also thought that this was ‘proper’ bread LOL! Why do people think that anything not made with wheat is not ‘proper’? I guess they don’t have a gluten intolerance. This really is the best low carb GF bread I’ve tasted in a LONG while. It will become a staple in this household that’s for sure. Will definitely still use the 90 second rolls as well for convenience!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I love to hear that, Doreen! Please come back again soon!
Jennifer Hitchcock
0Nutrition facts based on how much?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0One serving is 1 slice of the bread, Jennifer! Thanks for stopping by!
Josephine
0Hi Maya, I was wondering your nutrition information says serving is 1 but this comment says 2. Please clarify. Can’t wait to try this bread
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Josephine, Sorry, that was an error – I fixed the comment so that it’s consistent. A serving is 1 slice.
Maria
0Recipe notes states serving size is 1 slice (1/2″ thick) but your response in the comments stated 2 slices is one serving? Which one is correct?
Wholesome Yum L
0Hi Maria, one 1/2 inch slice is one serving. Hope you enjoy the recipe.
Barry
0Thank you for the recipe. Being new to the low carb /Keto diet, we noticed that we can easily get tired of the limited low carb food we were initially cooking. I want to share our experience…
Although in the first trial it was so ‘eggy’. Egg smell was very strong when it was hot however when it cool down the smell was minimal. Therefore in the second trial I included 4 eggs instead of 5. After the baking is completed, even though bread get heated, smell is minimal and the taste doesn’t change.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Thank you for sharing, Barry! I’m glad that worked for you.
Fariba
0Thanks a lot! I made your bread today for the second time! I added some poppyseeds in the top and it looks beautiful. The first time was a hit and I think this time will be much better since I used a hand mixer and it really raised and cracked on the topthanks for all yummy recipes.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Great idea adding poppyseeds, Fariba! YUM!
June
0If using a bread machine, what size loaf 1.5 lb ?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi June, I don’t have one but readers have told me the bread machine has worked for them and they just select the “quick bread” setting.
Rajshi Akruwala
0Do you need psyllium husk? Can I substitute that with something else?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Rajshi, Sorry, the psyllium husk powder is a critical ingredient for this bread. You can get it here. Otherwise, you can try this keto bread recipe instead.
Cheryl
0In the list of ingredients, there is no mention of baking powder but in the instructions, it is mentioned. How much should I use?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Cheryl, The gluten-free baking powder is the 3rd ingredient in the list – use 1 tablespoon.
Brooke
0I am so obsessed with this recipe. It has become a weekly staple for my meal prepping. I’ve given people at work a taste and shared your recipe many times with friends/family!
Thank you!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy to hear that, Brooke! Thanks for stopping by!
Jeni
0This is the best keto bread recipe out there, in my opinion. I make it every week. The psyllium husk is brilliant and really makes this like more traditional bread. I add a TBL of swerve to help counter any egg taste too. Comes out great every time. Sometimes I add cheddar cheese and that’s delicious too! I love this bread. Thank you for sharing the recipe! It’s a winner!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy to hear that, Jeni! Thanks for stopping by!
Mike
0AMAZING! I just made this bread and I can’t believe how perfect it is! My fiance and I are doing low carb. Not quite keto but trying to stay close to that range of carb intake! Honestly I’ve just been saying I’m avoiding bread, potatoes, and pasta. Either way this bread rocks. The only substitutions I made to the recipe was plain seltzer water in place of the still water. Wanted to give the dough some extra lift. I also put some pumpkin and sunflower seeds on top to increase the heartiness. This bread came out rocking our socks off. Can’t wait to make some grilled cheese Sammie’s with it!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Oh, I love the addition of pumpkin and sunflower seeds, Mike! I am so happy you liked it!
RM
0Just took the bread out of the oven! It’s delicious! Thanks so much… I wish I could share the pictures with you.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy to hear that! Please share pictures!
Alice Stordal
0Hi Maya! I’ve been trying to lose weight on a low fat diet, to no avail, so I’m trying Keto. I came across your recipe while looking for almond flour bread recipes. (Love the occasional turkey breast half-sammie for lunch or the occasional toasted slice for breakfast). Yours appears to be a very carefully thought-out recipe which I’m anxious to try. I really like how you explained things so thoroughly, gave tips. There’s nothing like learning with the benefit of others’ tried and tested experience. I’m not rating this recipe since I haven’t tried it yet, but based on your effort alone, it gets five stars! Many thanks, Alice
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Thank you so much, Alice! I definitely recommend a low carb diet over low fat. I’m glad the tips are helpful and hope you’ll love this low carb bread!
Sue
0Can I also add egg whites to this recipe? The egg white may help the bread to rise?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Sue, I don’t recommend it. Egg whites actually make baked goods more dense and provide structure, but they don’t help with rising. The leavening effect in eggs comes from yolks. This recipe is already tested with the ratios given and would likely be more dense and/or more egg-y if you add more whites. Hope you’ll try it!
Judie Witney
0This is keto as far as I can tell
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Judie, Yes, it’s low carb and keto!
Laura Bond
0Hi, what is that bread pan you baked in? It has holes in it. Probably great for the texture of the bread. Can you send me a link for that please?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Laura, The pan I use is linked in the post above.
Adrienne Dwyer
0I am trying to cut the carbs but so many of the recipes call for coconut oil. (I have an allergy to anything coconut). Can I substitute coconut oil for something else? Can I substitute coconut flour for something else? Thanks, love the site.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Adrienne, It depends on the recipe. For this one, you can use butter instead of coconut oil, and there is no coconut flour. Coconut flour usually can’t be replaced, but again it’s recipe specific. The best way to know is ask in the comments for any specific recipe you’re interested in. I’m glad you like the site!
Mac
0Hi! I just bought a bread machine and can’t wait to try out this recipe! I know you mentioned baking this on the “quick bread” setting, but my machine has a gluten free setting so I was wondering which would be better to use. Also, has anybody had any luck adjusting this recipe to make it gluten free? Thanks so much!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Mac, The recipe is already gluten-free, but the tests I have done with readers said to use the quick bread setting. If you decide to use a different setting, please let us know how it goes!
Mac
0Omg I’m such a dork, I meant “egg free”! Thanks so much!
Theresa
0Can I store the bread in an airtight container on the counter?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Theresa, Yes, you can!
Karina Colareta
0Hello, I’d like to try this bread but I was wondering if I could use avocado oil instead of the coconut oil. Also, I don’t have the powder yet. What can I use to replace that?
Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Karina, I haven’t tried it with avocado oil – please let me know how it goes if you try that. I highly recommend making it with psyllium husk powder, but some readers did report success using flax seed meal instead.
Bar
0Thanks for the recipe, finally a bread that doesn’t smell or taste eggy.
I had to make some modifications since I didn’t have psyllium husk powder.
I used 20gr of flaxseed (finely ground), 20gr of Chia seeds (finely ground) and 20gr of hemp hearts (finely ground.
Oh and I topped it off with some bagel seasoning.
I also lowered the oven temp by 25 degrees and baked it for 65 min.
It is delicious and my boys are asking for more.
So thank you!!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy to hear that! Thank you!
Marycris
0Can this recipe be used for the bread machine?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Yes, you can! I have details about this in the post above the recipe card.
Fariba
0Thanks so much for this recipe❤️❤️❤️It’s tasty and doesn’t smell eggy at all. I found that if I toast it I smell egg but not if I don’t! I love it. I tested many key bread on different websites. None of the were good as this I this one. Thank you for all the wonderful recipes
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Fariba! I am so happy you liked it and thank you for stopping by!
Bill
0I really love this bread the taste and texture, but I just can’t get the bread to rise. It always falls in the middle even before it is finished baking and continues to fall while cooling. The slice of bread looks like a sway back horse. It will rise and look wonderful and then start falling in the middle while baking. I’ve added a tablespoon of Baking Soda, increase the water to 1.5 cups, tried glass and metal loaf pans, baking at a higher temperature but nothing works. Can anyone help me with this falling in the middle problem?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Bill, Sorry to hear that. I haven’t experienced that before. Usually, if bread falls during baking it’s too much baking powder, but if it falls after baking it’s just not baked long enough. So you could try both less baking powder and increasing the baking time. Finally, this recipe uses baking powder, not baking soda, so if you used baking soda that could be the issue as well.
Denise
0Can I make the batter the night before and bake the next morning? Thank you for the recipe and your time.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Denise, Sorry, no. Baking powder reacts once it hits wet ingredients, and loses efficacy if not baked right away after that. However, you can mix all the dry ingredients the night before (through step 2) and do the rest in the morning. Or, you can just bake the bread the night before and eat it in the morning. You can also toast or reheat it if you want warm bread in the morning.
Wholesome Yum A
0Got a question for you! I LOVE the bread, now just trying to store it. How would you wrap it to freeze it since you suggest not wrapping in plastic wrap
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Thank you, Amanda! Sorry about the confusion – wrapping in plastic is fine for freezing. Just not for the fridge. It will be best to toast after freezing.
Roselyn
0Hi! Can I use melted butter instead of coconut oil? Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Roselyn, Yes, you can!
Monica Gonzalez
0My first bread ever! It came out really well and yummy. I can not eat carbohidrates now, but your Lovely Bread gives me Joy and Hope. Thank you and my friend Claudia (who recommended me your recipe) very much!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy you and your friend Claudia liked the bread, Monica! Please come back again soon!
Lynda
0Absolutely loved it, made with almond meal rather than almond flour but come out great, thank you for sharing
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy to hear that, Lynda! Have a great day!
David DeLair
0I followed this recipe to the letter and my bread came out a light colored purple. Tastes great just purple. Any ideas why. I suspect it was the Psyllium husk powder I used.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi David, Yes, the purple color is from the psyllium. You can try the one linked on the recipe card. Either way it’s safe to eat and tastes the same.
Kristina
0I am fairly new to the low carb world and I’ve tried Keto bread before that I didn’t like, so when I came across this one I absolutely had to try it cause everything I have tried from your page is FANTASTIC!! This bread is amazing! Do you think I could add cinnamon and Truvia to it for a sweeter bread or herbs like rosemary or oregano?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Thank you so much, Kristina! It means a lot to hear you say everything you’ve tried has been fantastic. You can definitely add cinnamon or herbs to the bread. Sweetener might be a challenge because the amount of sweetener needed to make it sweet would alter the wet/dry ingredient ratio, so you’d likely need to make other changes.
Janinea sloan
0My husband is allergic to almonds. What other nut flour could I use?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Janinea, Most other nut flours would work. The texture would just vary a bit depending on how finely ground it is – the finer, the better.
Claire
0The batter was very runny. I checked and double checked and my quantities were correct.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Claire, It’s hard to say for sure what happened without being there, but want to try to help. Did you check the video? At what point did yours start to look different?
Jon Rueck
0Mediterranean Diet entries? While a neurologist’s program encourages a keto diet, our primary care physician and our cardiologist encourage the Mediterranean diet which be come to learn is mostly fresh vegetables, pasta and fresh fruit with some pork, chicken, beef and seafood (not salmon) thrown in. Help!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Jon, While some of my recipes will fit into a Mediterranean diet, you won’t find pasta or high-sugar fruit on this site. I believe that reducing carbs is beneficial for anyone, even if not on a keto diet. Of course it’s up to you and your doctors to decide what is right for you!
Stanley
0Omg thank you … doctor said I have to eat healthy and drop a few pounds. The hardest part is I love some bread.
I have bread! Not dry flaky bread substitute but BREAD!
DID I SAY THANK U?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Yay, that’s so great to hear, Stanley!
Patricia Martinez
0Can this be made in a bread maker too?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Patricia, Yes, I’ve had readers make it in their bread maker! I’m double checking to find out if they used any special tricks or settings, and will add that as a note if I find out any extra details.
Shirley
0Can I just omit the psyllium? When I made the bread, it did not rise like your loaf did. Why?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Shirley, No, the psyllium is an integral part of the recipe. It’s hard to say what went wrong without being in the kitchen with you. This bread doesn’t rise as much as regular wheat bread recipes, but it does some. Try watching the video and see if at some point you did something different?
David
0For some reason mine came out purple. I’m guessing it was the husk powder.
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi David, Yes, some brands of psyllium husk powder do that. It’s still safe to eat, though. Hope you liked it otherwise!
Genielyn Eaton
0Just made this recipe. Didn’t rise but was expecting that. Added cinnamon and walnuts to it since I plan on this only being used for toast. It smells absolutely wonderful and tastes delightful. Love it!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Yay! I love to hear that, Genielyn! Have a great day!
Jen
0Awesome!! Followed the instructions exactly and just enjoyed a slice of warm, moist delicious bread. Will definitely make this again! Thank you!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0I am so happy you liked it, Jen!
Karen Turley
0I made this bread had to use the xanthan gum as I couldn’t get the husk, but turned out perfect. Thank you.
Kate
0How much xanthan gum did you use?
Jon Rueck
0I have both psyllium husk and xanthan gum. Which may be better and how much of either or both?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Jon, Use psyllium husk. The amount is on the recipe card above.
Courtney
0Hi Ladies! if I were to substitute with xanthan gum – how much would I use to replace the 1/4 cup psyllium husk powder?
Thanks!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Thanks for sharing that tip, Karen! Thank you!
Ruby
0Hi,
My loaf was still really moist in dough like in the middle. Any tips?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Ruby, It sounds like it needed to bake for longer. The top needs to form a very hard crust before it’s done.
Jon Rueck
0Same problem. Measured oven temp. Found it 25F higher than set. Reduced setting 20F and extended time 7 minutes. Still gummy in the middle. How much psyllium husk or xanthan gum is needed?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0If it’s still gummy in the middle, then it still wasn’t baked for long enough – sorry. The psyllium husk powder amount is on the recipe card – 1/4 cup.
Norhala
0Another solid ‘Yum’ from our house 🙂 I had a bread craving so made this recipe this afternoon. I substituted flaxseed meal, as I don’t have any psyllium husk powder on hand. It’s delicious! Can hardly wait to have it with the roast for dinner and as cheese toast tomorrow! Thanks for all the great keto recipes…
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Thanks for sharing with us, Norhala! Have a great day!
Jamie
0How do you keep this fresh? Should I keep it in the refrigerator?
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Jamie, You can keep it on the counter for a few days, the fridge for a week, or freeze slices for longer. Wrap it in parchment paper and don’t store in plastic, which can trap moisture.
Liv
0Hello 🙂 Is it possible to make it without eggs you think? And use egg replacer instead? Thanx!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
0Hi Liv, I’d have doubts but haven’t tried it. Let me know if you do!
Irlanda Ramirez
0Love it, love it, love it!!
