High Protein Keto Bread Loaf

7 ratings

Living a high-protein Keto lifestyle doesn't mean giving up on some of life's greatest pleasures – bread. Bread has always been a part of many food cultures, and this low-carb protein loaf will ensure you never miss out. This easy bread recipe yields 12 slices and is ideal for a high-protein Keto diet.

What is this Keto-friendly bread made of?

This Keto bread's base is a mixture of almond flour and whey protein isolate, making it 100 % gluten-free. You cannot switch the almond flour for more protein powder, but the opposite is possible. An essential ingredient in this recipe is psyllium husk powder. It is responsible for the "bread texture" and helps hold everything together. The Greek yogurt, eggs, and egg whites add more protein to this bread and are responsible for its moist texture. The seeds are there for flavor, nutrients, and texture.

Which pan should you use for this high-protein Keto recipe?

This bread loaf is best baked in a metal loaf pan measuring 15x25 cm ( 5.9 x 9.8 inches) or anything close.

How can you store this Keto bread?

One benefit of this high-protein Keto bread is that it yields 12 slices, enough for several meals. You can prepare it on the weekend and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. To reheat it, you can pop a slice or two in the toaster or on a pan with some butter.

How can you use this bread?

You can treat this Keto bread like you would any other bread. You can use it for sandwiches, french toast, or just as is with butter and flaky salt on top. Just keep in mind that it isn’t as absorbent as traditional bread.

    Not able to try this recipe as some of its ingredients don't agree with me. Anyone know if this app has the equivalent of down voting or another easy to use way for me to know I've viewed a recipe and it doesn't work for me, so I can more easily find the ones which do?

      Totally agree that this would be a useful feature - I can't eat eggs and am finding keto pretty challenging. Does anyone know if there is a suggestion box or feedback option in the app or on the website?

    Can I substitute egg white protein powder? If so, what is the measurement of a scoop of the whey powder in the recipe?

      Made it today and turned out pretty good. Honestly, I was on the fence given the consistency of the dough. That’s why I even added 1/2 cup yogurt instead of 3/4 cup. But it turned out quite delicious. Yes, there are fewer air pockets in the bread. But hey, I would happily take that over no bread
