Keto Bread
This recipe is slightly adapted from Maria Emmerich's recipe on Diet Doctor. It produces a tender and chewy bread roll.
Servings: 6
Calories: 130kcal
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
- 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- 3 egg whites
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
- Boil the water.
- Add the vinegar and the egg whites to the dry ingredients, and mix well. While mixing dough with a hand mixer, add the boiling water (should take about 30 seconds). Do not over mix the dough, the consistency will be similar to Play-Doh.
- Moisten hands with a little water and shape dough into 6 separate rolls (or bake in a loaf pan or shape into a baguette). Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake on in the oven for 50–60 minutes (If baking a baguette shape, they will need longer to cook. Bake for 1 hour at 350ºF then lower the oven temperature to 300ºF and bake for another hour). They should sound hollow when you tap on the bottom of the roll.
- Allow them to cool completely (they will continue cooking a bit).
- Serve with toppings of your choice. These will last a week in the fridge, simply toast to re-warm.
Notes
Some brands of psyllium will turn your baked good purple. This will not affect the flavor. I also like to bake this in a loaf tin though it takes a bit longer, another 20 minutes or so. You can also shape it into a baguette and slice it to produce crostini.
