★★★★★ REVIEW
“Seriously the best keto bread recipe ever. Followed it to a T, and looks like yours!” – Andie
Ingredients needed
- Almond flour. You want to use blanched almond flour, not almond meal. The latter will typically yield a heavier and more dense loaf, which isn’t the most enjoyable.
- Salt. You must add a pinch of salt. Otherwise, the loaf will be too bland.
- Baking soda. The leavening agent that gives the bread some rise and fluffiness.
- Eggs. Room-temperature eggs are a must. I know 5 eggs might sound like a lot, but it makes all the difference, especially when skipping the yeast.
- Extra virgin olive oil. My original recipe called for butter, but through re-testing found the oil yielded a preferred bread-y texture.
- Maple syrup. While syrup on its own is not keto-friendly, the amount used for my recipe is very negligible and won’t kick you out of ketosis. You can use my keto maple syrup, but the loaf won’t be as tender or fluffy.
- Apple cider vinegar. Reacts with the baking soda to give the bread some extra rise. DO NOT OMIT! Sorry for the block letters but skipping this will yield a flat loaf.
How to make keto bread
I’ve included step-by-step photos below to make this recipe easy to follow at home. For the full printable recipe instructions and ingredient quantities, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
Step 1- Prep. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F and line an 8×4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
Step 2- Make the bread dough. In a small bowl, combine the almond flour, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Add the dry to the wet ingredients and mix until combined and thick.
Step 3- Bake. Transfer the batter to the pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan completely before slicing.
Arman’s recipe tips
- Minimize the egg flavor. This recipe has somewhat of an ‘eggy’ flavor because of the number of eggs used. If this bothers you, remedy it by using 6 egg whites and saving the yolks to make keto mayo. This will give the bread a ‘white bread’ flavor.
- Use the proper-sized pan. Avoid using a loaf pan bigger than 8×4 inches, or the bread won’t rise and develop its signature dome shape.
- Leave some parchment paper sticking out of the pan. 1-2 inches on all sides should do the trick and make lifting the bread from the pan so much easier.
- Keep an eye on the bread. Oven makes and models differ. Mine took about 35 minutes to bake, but I’d recommend checking around the 30-minute mark, then every 3-4 minutes until it’s done.
- Make a double-batch. This bread freezes like a dream, so I like to make two loaves and freeze one for later.
Ways to use this bread
I love a good slice of toast with a little melted butter, but there are certainly more creative ways to use your low carb bread! Here are some ideas:
- On toast with cream cheese, sugar free jam, almond butter, or healthy Nutella.
- As a side dish to keto chicken soup or keto lasagna.
- Crisped up and turned into croutons.
- Made into an egg sandwich with air fryer bacon and over-medium eggs.
- Whipped up into bread pudding or keto French toast.
Storage instructions
To store: Keto bread should always be stored in the refrigerator, covered, at all times. The ingredients are too fragile to keep at room temperature. The bread will keep for up to 2 weeks.
To freeze: Leftover slices of bread can be stored in a freezer bag and frozen for up to six months. Let them thaw overnight.
Frequently asked questions
This recipe can only be made with almond flour. Do not substitute it for coconut flour or another flour, as the texture will not be right. You can try my coconut flour bread instead.
This recipe makes a full loaf of bread, and each loaf yields 12 slices. The entire loaf yields 24 net carbs, which works out to be 2 grams of net carbs per slice.

This is really great keto bread. Takes only a few minutes to whip up, and then bake. It slices beautifully, toasts well and does not crumble or fall apart. We used it for sandwiches as well as toasted with Arman’s Keto Strawberry Jam recipe. Delicious! I was able to slice it thin (it is much more dense than standard white sandwich bread), and it held together and toasted perfectly. The only thing not ideal is the size of the loaf. While mine did rise some and made a pretty loaf, each slice is only about the size of half a piece of standard sized bread loaf. I know another person had inquired about doubling the recipe and using the same pan to get a more “sandwich-sized” slice. I did not see a reply, but I plan to try it tomorrow, since we ate the whole loaf today! Very nice recipe!
Amazing.First keto / gluten free bread that I really love.Turned out great.Thank you.All your recipes are great.If this site was a recipe book it would be well worn.
I just made this. OMGoodness!! This bread actually rose, and did not crumble or taste eggy. This is my go to keto bread recipe for now on. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe.
Fantastic flavor and enjoyable density. I made the recipe exactly, except I used sugar free maple syrup. It not only is delicious, but most importantly does not spike my blood sugar like retail “keto” bread items. THANK YOU! I honestly would choose this bread for breakfast , over any bread out there.
Quickest, easiest, tastiest keto bread I have EVER made/tasted. THANKYOU
Really interesting bread. I am not keto but I love to try new things.
Husband and I started keto a few weeks ago and we both missed bread but I found this recipe and I now make about 2 loaves a week.
It’s a quick and easy recipe that I can whip together in a few minutes and get in the oven.
Getting the eggs to room temperature takes longer than mixing it up and cleaning up afterwards.
Hi, I did try your recipe and it is very good. Just, I would like for the slices of bread to be taller to make a good sandwich. Any idea what can I do? Can I double this recipe in the same pan or a medium pan? What do you think?
This was really good. I could not find my loaf pan so I ended up making muffins. I baked them for 25 min. I think I try 20 mins next time as these were slightly dry, but put some butter on and oh so good. Going to make these for Thanksgiving Dinner instead of biscuits. Looking forward to making this as a loaf of bread.
This keto bread is amazing! 🤩 very tasty!
Thanks for the recipe!
Love this bread! Quick & easy. Just starting to experiment with keto. Held together well, even when I cut a hot slice minutes after baking. Will try more of your recipes. Thanks, Arman!
This bread is incredible as well as your other recipes. I was skeptical at first because I’ve never made a loaf before, but now I completely trust you. I also made the oatmeal and banana bread recipe with peanut butter and it’s perfect. You are very talented, especially with those few ingredient recipes! Thank you for posting your wonderful recipes.
easy and fast to make.love it!
I keep seeing flaxseed in other comments but see no reference to them in the recipe. Could you please provide some clarification. Thanks.
Fantastic! So easy, so tasty! Did not feel an “eggy” taste at all. Used grapeseed oil instead of olive oil because my olive oils (yes, I have several) all have a very distinct flavor.
My only problem was the batter only filled the pan halfway (8.5 x 3.5 pan, that’s what I have…) , so it didn’t rise enough. How can I increase the recipe to get about a quarter/third more batter?
P.S. Your site has become my “go-to” for keto recipes. Thank you!
This recipe was hella good!! Can’t wait to make sandwiches for the week without any of the unecessary bloating!
This is the best low carb bread recipe ever.
I just made this and it so delicious! I could eat half the loaf. Had some with peanut butter and some toasted with butter and cheddar. I will definitely make this again!
Video not working
Will check that!
Seriously the best keto bread recipe ever!
This is really good. I substitute 1 tbsp raw honey with Maple syrup. Goes well with cheese
I was super confused for 20 minutes there. I had to go to the wayback machine to find the old recipie
So I loved your last recipe (made one sans butter by mistake and loved it so much more) I really liked the flaxseed and was wondering why you aren’t adding it to this one? I am going to add some to this new recipe and see if it holds up!
Great recipe.
Does this bread taste as almond like little sweet?
Super easy recipe!
I added carrots, zucchini, a ton of cinnamon, and then put all ingredients in a blender. Keto bread turned out great!!!
Fantastic recipe
Also , one commenter mentioned butter but there is no butter listed in the ingredients. However, there is olive oil mentioned and it says melted. I have only ever seen liquid olive oil.
Recipe has been updated and improved 🙂
Reading the comments makes me wonder if they (comments) go with this Keto Bread recipe. I don’t see anything about flax seed in the list of ingredients
Recipe has been updated and improved 🙂
Hi could you tell me how much of the ingredients do I need for this bread please?
I just saw Mary’s comment on substituting olive oil which replies to my question 🙂
The bread is delicious, the best one I’ve tried so far, only complaint I have is that it’s too oily for my liking, every time I’d touch it I’d have a layer of fat on my hands, and when I put it into a paper bag it soaked it up. I’d suggest replacing a fraction of the butter with something else like milk or butter milk.
Best keto bread recipe EVER!
This was delicious! I have blood sugar issues and even store-bought so-called “keto bread” tends to spike my blood sugar almost as much as regular bread. I went to buy a loaf of “clean ingredients” keto bread that I had heard about at my local health food store, and when I saw that the price was almost $13 I thought “no way, this is ridiculous, I am not paying for a small loaf of bread”, and decided to find a recipe that used ingredients that I already had.
This fit the bill and it was super simple to make. I made a few substitutions in order to make it a little healthier. I substituted neutral flavored Pompeii “Bake” olive oil for the butter, and added 3 tablespoons of hemp hearts in addition to the flax seeds. The texture and taste was everything that I wanted in a low-carb bread, and it toasted up beautifully! I am so happy to have this recipe, it will be a staple in my diet for sure. Thank you so much for sharing with us!
Thank you so much, Mary!
Is there any substitution for flaxseed?
Not that I’ve tried
best keto bread recipe!
Can I add Chia seeds to the recipe?
You could try!
Seriously the best keto bread recipe ever. Followed it to a T and looks like yours!
How about using a breadmaker to simplify the task. Would that work?
I haven’t tried in a bread maker 🙂
Marie Bell
Did you end up trying this on a breadmaker? If so how did it turn out.
Thanks!!
Arman, I have to share this story. I decided not to eat wheat and make your Keto bread tonight. While working on it, I realized that I did not have one of the ingredients. There was a somewhat ripe banana on the kitchen counter, destined to go to the organic waste bin. So I cut it up really thin and put it in the egg mixture. The consistency was perfect at this point, and I did not think it needed 1/2 cup of water.
It turned out soooooo terrific, tasty and super moist. I will make this over and over and perfect substitute the banana with finely chopped nuts or herbs.
Thank you for the great recipe.
Thank you for this recipe. I really enjoy it. Today, I used poppy seeds instead of flax. I also added about 1 tsp of lemon flavoring and 2 T of Swerve Brown Sugar. It turned out just delicious!
So delicious. I toasted a handful of roughly chopped walnuts and added them once the bread was ready to bake and the result was excellent. The recipe is so simple yet so tasty.
Thanks, Denise!
Where is the real recipe? There’s no quantity of each ingredient shown.
There is a full recipe card.
My favorite low carb bread. I toast it lightly then add butter and keto jam.
Thank you, Olga!
Too bad sugar content was not posted. I think it ends up being around 1.6 g per slice (if you cut 21 slices (3/8″ thick) out of the 8″ loaf). Sugar is found in the flour and eggs. The rest of the ingredients have no sugar content.
I have been looking for a good tasting keto bread and finally this recipe fit the bill! It is truly delicious bread and very easy to make. It will be a staple in our house from now on. Thank you so much for the recipe!
I’m allergic to almonds (not all nuts, only almonds). What can I substitute for the almond flour? So many recipes have almond flour. This is always a tough one for me. Thanks in advance.
You could try sunflower seed flour. I can’t vouch for it personally though.
I have tried many keto bread recipes. This is by far the best. It is delicious. I would not eat any other bread now. It is inexpensive to make, easy, and delicious. The trifecta of a perfect recipe.
😀 amazing!!!
This is the best keto bread recipe- it’s been my go-to for years!
Thanks, Jeremy!

You are so welcome, Mrs. Pat!
Sorry, forgot to leave a rating 🙂
This is the absolute BEST keto bread I have ever tasted. Easy recipe, lasts in fridge, can be toated or used for grilled cheese. I will not try any other bread recipes. This is definitely my go to.
You are a gem!
This turned out really well. Much better than store-bought Keto bread. Been doing Keto for two weeks now and was craving toast and butter. I loved this bread! It really felt like a treat, spread with some crunchy almond butter. Would be fantastic baked with some seeds on top – I’ll try that next time! Thanks for the recipe 👍🏻
I just baked this bread for the first time.
Yum.
This was such a delicious keto bread recipe. One for the books!
I made one batch just as written, and immediate after a second loaf substituting extra virgin olive oil for the butter and both loaves turned out equally excellent! As I am reducing saturated fat, I will probably use just EVO in the future. Thanks for such an awesome recipe. It’s almost like an unsweetened pound cake, rich and satisfying even without anything on it.
So glad you enjoyed it!
This is very good bread, and especially welcome if you’ve been missing bread a lot. After baked and cooled, I think the taste is eggy, but I like that. I like it toasted. Note for people new to some concepts with Keto baking: ground flax seeds, when mixed with any liquid, form a jell, which is what helps give the bread some form. Chia seeds do this as well, and can be used as thickeners, but I don’t know if chia seeds can be subbed for flax seeds 1:1. I like flax seeds. Once you’ve mixed up the eggs, if the melted butter is quite hot, cool it down by adding the half cup of cool water to it before combining with the eggs – if the butter is too hot, your eggs could scramble (cook). I think this bread will be super as french toast, or broiled with garlic and cheese for a nice snack.
Holy Smokes…. Love this bread so tasty… Cant stop eating it lol
The best keto bread recipe you’ll ever make!
Hi, can i add yeast ? Do i need to reduce anything in order to incorporate it?
You could try!
I’ve tried tons of keto bread recipes and this is hands down, the BEST. It bakes beautifully and toasts really well too. I do think you need a super sharp knife to slice.
Fabulous recipe – though my bread turned out bright yellow as my eggs were super rich yolk variety from a farm in Cornwall. I wasn’t sure if the UK version of baking powder was different so I put in 2 level dessert spoons and half a teaspoon of baking soda. It turned out amazing and I had a slice with butter and cheese just because I could and then a slice with my keto dinner spread with garlic cream cheese. I had that lovely full up feeling you get with eating carbs and I slept like a baby and lost 2lbs the next day! Thank you so much for such an amazing, easy recipe!
Love that, Bevers!
This recipe was extremely easy to make. I did have to cook it on the longer side.
I made this for first time. The flavor is delicious and tasty and it works so well for sandwiches and toasting!
Great taste and texture.
Does it freeze well?
Yes! I like to freeze individual slices 🙂
Just delicious
Love your recipe! Best loaf of keto bread. Would love to send picture.
Thanks, Barb
Hi
What brand almond flour do you recommend?
Thanks
Love Kirkland (from Costco!)
This is a lovely Keto bread recipe. Looks and tastes closer to ‘normal’ bread than the cloud bread and is more filling. I think I may have used too much salt (I used a measuring spoon), so I will reduce the salt next time and ensure the baking powder is a level tbs.
For those in the UK, I am not sure if the measuring cups are the same here as in the recipe, but I followed the recipe regardless, and it worked really well. The 1/2 cup of butter I googled and it came up as 115g, so I used the weight instead.
I couldn’t wait for the bread to cool completely, so I had it warm with scrambled eggs for breakfast, but I am going to slice it and freeze the rest. The whole loaf is just too tempting for me to keep in the fridge.
Thank you, Arman, for a great recipe.
You are welcome, Christine!
This was such a good recipe for keto bread. Fluffy, toasts well, and comes together quickly and easily.
Made this today
It was nice ,just a bit rich but I enjoyed it with my egg mayo
So pleased with this bread. Mine came out more rustic than the photo
but delicious
I love this low carb bread and make it often. Not sure why others saying it comes out crumbly- mine looked like thne picture, a little lighter.
How much is one of your cups please
We use American cups here 🙂
1 cup US = 150grams (6 oz)
This was the best keto bread ever. It toasts like real bread and tastes like the real thing!
OMG! It turns out that my baking powder was old and the bread didn’t rise much, but still – what a delicious bread!!!!! Honestly – keto or not, this tastes amazing. And the fact that it’s healthier than regular bread, seriously… Will be making it weekly for sure!
This bread is definitely an indulgence. While low in carbs extremely high in fats. Also very buttery? Greasy? I’m not sure if I did something wrong. I used dairy free butter which has always been my go to. Will dairy butter make it less greasy? Either way delicious! Thank you so much for this recipe!
Love it.
Thank you so much for the recepy.easy to make ,wholesome and taste.xoxo
So welcome!
I love this low carb bread!! so good.
Excellent. A variant without butter and with olive oil is possible.
DELICIOUS!!!! My husband and I have been looking for a great almond flour bread recipe and this is it! I just made it yesterday and it is to die for! We have been toasting it in our air fryer basket and is perfect on the outside and perfect on the inside. Can’t wait to make our next loaf.
LOVE this, Laurie!
MADE THIS BREAD , WOW MY HUSBAND LOVES IT, HIS DIABETES READING WAS BRILLIANT AS HE STRUGGLES WITH BREAD FOR HIS READINGS ,DEFFO A FAVOURITE
Thanks for the feedback, Karen!
Hi. I’ve just tried this. 41yr old male with zero baking before today. Got a nice thick crispy crust all round Taste superb 👌
This is absolutely game changing! I love this. I just made it for the first time and it’s awesome!
I am also a really bad cook, so the fact that I was able to produce a loaf of bread that tastes good shows how easy to follow and simple the recipe is. My keto life just got better 😍
You are so welcome, Alice 🙂
Hi Arman, could this be made in an air fryer?
I haven’t tried- feel free to experiment and see 🙂
This is the best keto bread recipe. It came out EXACTLY like the photo and I used a small loaf pan.
I made your bread today The only thing I added was a half teaspoon of xanthum gum for stability. Excellent outcome. Perfect result. Tastes fantastic!
Thank you so much for publishing this recipe. I just had a warm slice two seconds ago and am in heaven. I never comment on stuff but I have been on a therapeutic keto diet now for personal reasons so I miss my carbs & sweets. But this one little slice lifted my spirits so much. I made it exactly as the recipe. I will make this again. Thank you again.
That means so much, Shiela! I’m so glad to hear that.
Thank you for sharing the delightful keto bread recipe, and I appreciate the inclusion of nutritional information. As slice sizes can vary, the nutritional content also fluctuates. Can you provide the weight of the slice upon which the nutritional information is based?
Sorry, Sophia- we don’t weigh them 🙂
Surely we can work this out ourselves by weighing the whole loaf. Multiply the info given by 12 and then weigh your slice.
This is the best keto bread recipe I’ve ever made.
Thanks for this recipe. Wouldn’t this bread have an eggy taste? 4 eggs is a lot. Thanks
Not at all 😉
Bread out of oven and cooled. It’s so good! First time every commenting but this bread deserves a comment! I added tsp of nutritional yeast and some extra grd flax seed to flour. Added pkg of rapid rise yeast to wet ingredients. It smelled very nice baking. Can’t wait to toast,etc.
Can this be made without the flax seed?
I haven’t tried!
The best keto bread I’ve ever made this recipe is a keeper thank you so munch
Great bread and easy! Thank you!!
perfect bread recipe. Tastes like real bread.
I made this last night, and just had a slice with dinner. Very, very good. Sliced clean, no crumbling issues, and browned beautifully when toasted. The flavor was excellent too! Thank you
The best keto bread recipe I’ve ever made.
That’s what I like to hear!!
I made this bread and it turn out great!
That is what I like to hear!
turned out even better than non-keto bread.
That’s what I like to hear!
Can you cook this keto bread in a bread machine?
I haven’t tried but several readers mentioned doing it successfully!
Can I replace the 4 eggs with something else?
Not that I’ve tried
I made the bread. I didn’t have flaxseed but had Kia seed. It turned out good. Could I put Italian seasoning or other stuff in it ? I think I tasted the baking powder. Thanks
Jennie I made the bread but I used only 1/4 of a cup of water the recipe calls for 1/2 a cup of water, but with 1/4 of a cup of water it hold the bread much better
Excellent tasty results! My loaf isn’t quite as beautiful as yours but it’s very acceptable. I followed the recipe to a T, weighing all ingredients except my 4 (room temperature) eggs.
What can I alter to make it hold together better?

Thank you. I appreciate you and look forward to your reply and I will also be exploring any other keto recipes you have.
Have you experimented with this recipe in a bread machine? Not sure how to adapt it but willing to experiment.
I love this recipe! Will definitely be making it again. I do have one question about adjustments though, if you leave out the flaxseed should you use less egg? Mine came out with an almost scrambled egg kind of consistency.
Such a good low carb bread recipe. Toasts really well, too!
I made this bread last night. It was very quick to put together. I accidentally left out the salt, but it’s stilll very good. So often I’ve found breads made with almond flour to taste too sweet, but even without the salt, it has very good flavor. I apparently used too large a loaf pan so it is thin but still works great for open faced sandwiches. I’m going to make another batch today. I’m going to turn this batch into melba toast so I have something crunchy to eat with my lunches. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
Flavor and texture are excellent. As with all keto baked goods, the bread doesn’t hold form well for sandwiches very well. It is simply how most keto baked goods turn out since they are not wheat products with development of gluten for strength and stretch.
I use Dollar Tree baking pans for better height and browning. Also do a great job radiating heat for baking better than glass pans. These pans are durable and cheap and smaller width for more rise. I use the square pans for baking more dessert recipes. Almond flour dessert crusts need good heat to make more crunchy. Bread also got a crust using this type of pan.
Arman, are the table spoon sizes US (15ml) or Australian (20ml)?
Thx.
15 mls : )
I just baked this bread, although it looks good it didn’t raise much, what did I do wrong?
Seriously delicious keto bread.
This recipe is my favourite so far. Very easy and quick, with outstanding results. This will be a regular.
We just love this bread.
Hello.
Have you made the video to show how to make the bread and how to get a decent rise on it yet please ?
I am really keen to try your recipe as it looks one of the best recipes so far.
Cheers.
Can this be made in a bread machine?
I haven’t tried!
I would think if you have a”Quick bread” setting you can make this in your bread machine. Otherwise, I’d follow the oven baking directions. Seems very simple.
Very good bread, hoping to make some toast with it, my husband and I have not had bread in a long while, so this is pretty good.
This is the best bread recipe I’ve tried so far. It was delicious. I halved the recipe (as a taste tester) and I substituted the eggs with liquid eggs; and water with milk. I love recipes that don’t break down when you make a few changes to it. Highly recommend.
Fantastic bread. The best ever! Thank you for posting
Reminds me of corn bread! I made this for my Aunt who is a strict Keto follower and a friend who is gluten free and they LOVE LOVE LOVE this bread. I have served it to good old carbovores (my made up word for those of us that eat carbohydrates)! Thank you!

The best keto bread recipe EVER.
Wonderful recipes. Allready buy this for the company not grainer. Only almond and seed. But thank you very much because now I can doing myself.
Hi
Love this recipe, thanks for sharing.
I have one question, the bread has a very odd slightly unpleasant smell. However you can’t taste the smell if that makes sense. Has anyone else noticed it and do you know why? 🤔
Fantastic bread
Thank you so much for your recipes. I’m trying to do keto and you are helping me so much.
Nice, easy, and quick bread recipe.
Good job!!
This is the first Keto bread receipt where the bread is actually like bread. Of course not quite the same but it slices and it toasts and it is better than no bread that’s for sure!
I was looking for a keto bread loaf recipe. Mine is in the oven for 10 more minutes. I can’t wait to cut and eat my first slice!!
Mine looks exactly like yours, just a little lighter because of my almond flour. Will make again!
amazing. Kitchen smells so good right now!
Can you make this bread in a bread maker/machine?
I haven’t tried but you are welcome to experiment and see
I really like this “Bread “.
Mine turned out looking more like a loaf.
I’m wondering why vinegar is mentioned in comments when none is in the recipe.
Or is this about another recipe.
Thanks
Can I make this is a bread maker?
Haven’t tried 🙂
Followed the recipe exactly. The bread came out so moist and airy. I may make some muffins next time. I am not sure if it would hold up to a sandwich. I used sifted almond flour and that may have made a difference. Will test recipe using various almond flours and see how they react but the recipe is divine! Love the texture and flavor! The parchment paper method works fantastic! Thank you so much.
Can this be made in a bread maker?
I haven’t tried but you are welcome to experiment and see
30 years off wheat, eating so-so substitutes. And then I have a flash: how about trying a keto recipe? Well this bread is the VERY FIRST to be so yummy I eat it almost every day. Moist, tasty, does not crumble like GF bread always does. I kept it in the fridge, I ate is as is or toasted and wow!!! That’s the only comment I can come up with. Gotta go bake another one now, bye 😋
This bread is awesome even the wife loves it.
I have made this bread. It tastes amazing! Thank you for this recipe.
Made this bread exactly as the recipe, came out perfect! Will have to admit it does not look like the picture posted, though. But it’s dense, slightly nutty in flavor from the flax, has a great crumb. My family enjoyed it for cucumber dill sandwiches. Thank you for a great recipe, I will be keeping it on rotation.
Obsessed with this keto bread recipe. So good ansd so easy.
I’m about to make this keto bread on the weekend when my almond flour arrives. But as for the rise, there’s a way of making cakes extra fluffy by first beating the egg whites to a stiff peak and then gently incorporating all the other ingridients into it. It’s worth a try. I’ll be making two loaves, one as written and the other with the beaten whites. This should be conclusive! Thank you for the awesome recipe; Save-on-foods keto breads are getting to be way too pricy for me…
Making this today sounds Great
I just baked this bread, and was surprised, it did taste good. No grainy taste like the others that have coconut flour. Of course it’s not like regular wheat bread, but I got to say, I’ve tried a few recipes and this so far is the best, and it’s really easy too. I will ad some seeds in the next one. This one is a keeper for sure. Thank you for this recipe.
Is this traditional bread making techniques eg folding and needing
The best keto bread yet!
This was so moist and delicious, I had to make it twice this week.
Very impressed with the lift & the look. Cooling now but looking forward to tasting. Already thinking about spices, nuts, seeds… Other types of flavoring.
Very good and easy make
Ok this was so good. THANK YOU!!!!
Good bread, easy recipe. I did add some seeds to the top of the loaf.
Can I substitute the butter for a non-dairy option? Would coconut oil work? or Olive oil?
Thanks!
Coconut oil is an excellent sub for butter
Thank you so much for this recipe. I love how quick and easy it is. It’s a staple in our house. It is also very versatile – today I added Rosemary Garlic Seasoning and chopped Kalamata olives. I also always add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast. SO much better than the boring keto bread in the store.
Divine 🤩🤩🤩
Absolutely perfect every time !!!
Thank you so much 💓
Can I substitute the flax seed? Use chia instead?
Haven’t tried, you’ll need to experiment and see.
Hi
This bread looks amazing but I was wondering if I could use anything in place of regular butter? I can’t have dairy
I do have vegan salted butter at home but it’s margarine like and is made up of bunch of oils and has texture similar to butter. Would it work?
Thank you
You could try and see!
This bread was surprisingly good and doesn’t spike my blood sugar. It’s been a wonderful addition to my VirtaHealth diet.
Making my second loaf now!
I just made this using the ‘flour’ I make from dehydrated walnut pulp leftover from making milk, about 1.5 cups, then topped up to 2 cups with ground almonds (I’ve never bought almond flour, I just make everything with ground, I know it’s different but it’s not been a problem so far). The texture is probably not as bread-like as with almond flour, but it’s really very nice anyway. I’m going to make cranberry and orange stuffing ready for Christmas with some of it. I love how easy this recipe is, no faffing and no part eggs left afterwards either! Thank you
This is the BEST keto bread recipe EVER!! Thank you.
Awesome! Although I have tried Keto Bread in so many different styles, gonna try this one too.
Can I use ground golden flaxseed?
I haven’t tried, but you can experiment and see
Yes… Just did
This was great! Very hearty and filling. Just my type of bread. What I love even more is how easy it is to make. Thank you, Arman!💕
Can this be made in a bread machine?
I haven’t tried- You are welcome to experiment and see
I’ve been Gluten Free for over a decade. It’s really hard making bread that tastes great. I tried this bread tonight and hands down one of the best breads I’ve made. Thank you for this recipe. The bonus is that it can be made so quickly and easily with ingredients in my cupboard! Thank you.
I cut the salt in half with no ill effects. I would also sub spices of choice for flavor & omit salt completely if necessary
Over the past 2 years my husband and I have been Keto. I gave tried numerous breads. This is the best one! I love the flaxseed addition. Thank you
Absolutely fabulous bread! I prefer this to normal bread and it tastes so good. Thanks for the recipe.
Is the almond flour packed or loose? What do you do to ensure a good rise? Very excited to try this recipe!
Packed 🙂
Just found you and looking through the site, a lot of great stuff. I’m cooking for my Dad now and he requires a low/no salt low carb diet for heart and kidney challenges. I can leave the salt out in many recipes. This bread is 180mg sodium which is too high, do you have any suggestions to lower the salt or another (flavorful) low/no salt bread?
Its been challenging finding a bread that checks all the boxes. Thank you in advance for the recipes!!
Christine
The bread and naan bread were so yummy that regular bread has not enough flavor as these Keto breads. You did a great job on these. Will try the cinnamon rolls next.😋
Made this today. Best recipe ever for a keto bread. I doubled the amount of all ingredients. The batter seemed to be too ‘wet’ like a cake mixture, as compared to previous keto bread recipes I tried. But after baking, the bread turned out so soft & fluffy. Delicious! My family loves it. Thank you Arman!
So great to hear that!
I bought a cup that measures in hats and noses just to make this bread. Turns out there are american and uk hats and noses (pounds and cups and whatnots), but still, this is easily the most tasty keto bread I’ve had. It has a rich and delicious almond flavor, does not crumble and has a great texture! Will be making this again for sure! Thank you for an awesome recipe.
You are so welcome!
This is the best keto, gluten free bread I’ve had without psyllium powder. I love the buttery flavor. I used old baking powder that I think caused it to not rise well. Will definitely try it again.
Hi, can I omit ground flaxseed if not available?
I haven’t tried without it.
We are new to keto and have had amazing results as far a weight loss is concerned, l made your keto bread today ( which is lovely)the only problem l have is that it crumbles when we try to butter it, is that normal or am l doing something wrong
Hi Brenda! Did you let it cool completely?
Hi, Arman. I want to make this bread for meal planning, but how do I keep it fresh and prevent it from going bad? How do I cover the leftover bread? How do I defrost it after six months?
Always keep it tightly sealed- I like using large ziplock bags. Defrost in the refrigerator overnight.
I’m definitely trying this recipe. Thank you for sharing.
Hi may i know if you made a video to show a big rise every time?
Yes, will be posting it soon!
Can u use this recipe in a bread maker.p
Not that I’ve tried.
The recipe is simple and easy to follow. The bread flavor was great but I had an issue with its texture/constituency. When it finished baking and cooled, the bread was more similar to banana bread than traditional bread. Softer and what I would call “Wet crumbly”. Dunno if you’ve experienced this when you first were making it. Was thinking using a little more flour or baking it longer. Any tips?. Thanks.
I am so happy to find this keto recipe! I made this bread and it looks and cuts perfect, though why does my bread taste so salty? I followed the directions then noticed in a comment that a reader used vinegar though do not see vinegar in the ingredient list. Am I missing something? Thank you
Hi Susan- did you add any salt?
My favorite go-to keto bread. Thank you Arman.
Best tasting loaf ever!It solved my cravings for toast bread.
Can I use coconut oil instead of butter?
You can try and see.
Hello, my bread didn’t rise at all, it has more of a cake look and consistency, I know it’s something I have done wrong as opposed to your recipe. Any tips please as to How to get it to rise like the beautiful loaf at the top that you made 😊
Many thanks
Hi Amee! Use a smaller loaf pan- That is key for the dome shape 🙂
I would love to make this bread. Is it possible to make this recipe in a bread maker?
I haven’t tried, but you are welcome to experiment and see.
Easy enough to bake, comes together real well. Expect the outcome to be more of a “savory pound cake”, rather than a loaf of bread.
This was great! I’m so happy I came across this recipe. I added walnuts and pumpkin seeds. Such a treat for this gluten free girl!
Hey Arman, absolutely love this bread and have made it several times! I find it works great for sandwiches and toast because you can cut it so thin without it falling apart (lots of other keto bread is very brittle). Yum!
I’ve been using another version of this recipe (same name, but include ACV) every week for several months. I will try this one for my next batch! Thanks for all the great Keto recipes.
Thank you for this easy keto bread recipe. As with some other keto recipes I have tried though, it has too many eggs and they become the keynote flavor, eggy. I have learned that two eggs per cup of flour is too many eggs. I will make modifications and still use this easy recipe so I do appreciate your work.
I have had my flaxseed has expired in 2014 and it has not been refrigerated. Do you think it would be ok to use?
I wouldn’t.
Thanks for reply
Wow best keto bread recipe I have tried. I also made the keto strawberry jam to go with it. They taste heavenly! Would like to try more of your recipe. Thank you!!!
On the comments they mention apple cider vinegar but I don’t see it listed with the rest of the ingredients
Hi Leslee, the recipe was improved and apple cider vinegar is no longer required 🙂
What can I replace the butter with to make this dairy free? I wish you would include this in your tips in all your recipes! Thanks
I include tested tips, I’m not going to suggest dairy free butter if I haven’t tried it. You are welcome to try it out and see if it works!
So I tried to make this bread and mind you it was my first time making any bread ever….. it was a little dense but I dont have a hand mixer and had to do it with a whisk, I love it. it reminds me of buttered bread this is something that I will be making again due to I miss noodles and bread for sandwiches this is something I can eat and will not run my blood sugar through the roof. thank you for sharing this recipe it has made being diabetic easier.
Bread I’d soooo good. I made a mistake when mixing, but all was well. A keeper for sure. Thanks again. Also can I get a link to the new recipe for a higher rise?
That’s what I have.
Twice it’s come out quite flat and fairly dense. With a very moist but fall apart texture.
Does it look like the picture? Domed top and air cells?
If you use a small loaf pan (smaller than a usual 9 x 4 inch one), it naturally becomes dome shaped and high.
I used a 4×9 pan and had great lift. I think fresh baking powder & proper cooling are mandatory from previous experience with several keto bread recipes
First time making went OK. I pleased.
Hello Arman,
I just baked your Keto Bread No Yeast and I have to say it is the best keto bread I have ever tasted since rejoining the keto/low carb world again! Thank you for this easy and delicious recipe.
The only issue I had was that 6 of the 12 slices did not hold up and they began to fall apart, but still a very flavorful bread and I will continue to make this bread! I believe part of my issue was that I did not allow the bread to completely cool down enough to prevent it from crumbling. I can’t wait to make this bread and some of your other recipes again. Thank you.
I would like to try this recipe but I don’t see the apple cider vinegar in the list of ingredients however going through the comments more than one person mentioned it. So do I have to add it and if yes how much?
Hi Diana! The recipe has been updated to reflect new changes 🙂 The vinegar is not needed anymore
hi there can this be made in a bread machine.thanks
Not that I’ve tried.
Made this recipe today and I didn’t get the rise that your photos show. Any ideas?
Hi Eva! Did you use a smaller loaf pan? That is key to achieve the high dome 🙂
Very tasty bread. Surprisingly little egg flavor.
Followed the recipe closely, but my loaf is very flat (baking powder is new, used flax seed not powder) and very moist (have to handle it carefully so it doesn’t break, even though it baked until a skewer came out dry), and yellow rather than brown.
I’d like some feedback as to how I might be able to improve it. My family likes it too, which is a plus, but they’d like to use it for sandwiches, and that wouldn’t be possible with the texture as it is.
Thanks for the recipe and the help.
Hi Patti 🙂 Did you use a smaller loaf pan? This is key to achieving the high dome 🙂
Flax seed in place of ground flax would likely cause this imo. I grind flaxseed or chia seed in an old coffee grinder. Instant yeast added might help too
I’m dairy free. Can the butter be substituted?
Yes. Dairy free butter (from a block, not a tub) should be okay!
Could this be made substituting coconut oil or avocado oil for the butter?
You could try!
I have not tried this recipe because I have an allergy to eggs and a food sensitivity to flax seed. Are there any ingredients I could sub for those two? Thank you!
Those two ingredients are needed for this bread.
I’d love to see the video but can’t seem to find it. Back in July you said “I’ll be adding a video soon to show how to guarantee a big rise each time with the bread” Where can I find the video please?
Hello, have not tried recipe yet but would like to know if I can sub butter for oil? Thanks
Not that I’ve tried
I’m so happy that I found your bread recipe I added a little xanthan gum for texture and a package of instant yeast for flavor oh, this is the best bread I have ever had since doing Keto 2 years ago, thanks again I love it!
Thanks Arman for the recipe. I’ve followed everything but it turned out to be quite dense like a brownie texture. What could I done wrong? The taste is quite good though.
I love this bread recipe. So close to regular carb. It was firm, moist, tasty, and held together extremely well sliced thick or thin. I refrigerated my leftovers uncut wrapped well in parchment paper for about a week (slicing some off each day as needed) and it’s remained fresh until all used up. For those who like it a little sweeter, they can add a bit more keto syrup or even some powdered lakanto. The recipe will still hold up. And for those who want more of a rise, they can fluff up all the dry ingredients with a fork to separate all the clumps. They can also beat the eggs well for a minute or two in a stand mixer to introduce some air. Then gently mix the dry into the eggs until well blended. Also, maybe use a smaller pan. Mine rose and was bumping up against the foil a bit while baking so I just refolded the foil to give it some space. Your ingredient choices in this recipe really made the texture awesome! It was springy. Thanks again!
So good. Thanks Arman. I can slice it really thin. It doesn’t crumble. Just fabulous.
Fabulous- Thanks Liz!
This bread turned out so nice I nearly cried. Only thing I changed was to sub two eggs for chia. Thanks it’s perfect!
This bread recipe is delicious, surprisingly not as eggy tasting as I thought would 5 eggs. Like the reviewer named Cindy, my bread does not get the same rise as your loaf in the pic above. I have made this recipe 3 times. The third time yielded a better rise, but I am not sure what I did differently to achieve this. I look forward to seeing your video!
Thank you for sharing the recipe! We live in Danmark and our measures are metric. I am trying to convert cups to grams. When you write cup is it EU or USA cup?
Thanks!
Marina
US cups 🙂
2 Cups=500 ML
1/2 Teaspoon=2.46 ML
1 Tablespoon=14.79 ML
3 Tablespoon= 44.36 ML
1/2 Cup=56.7 Grams
I made this bread and I must say it does taste as close to “regular bread” as I’ve ever had, even my husband enjoyed it! The only thing I wish was that is would look like the picture you have posted, it is only 1/2 the size height wise. The slices are really 1/2 that size. I’m not sure how yours looks the same size as “regular bread” I followed the recipe to the letter and mind was only 1/2 the height of yours.
Hi Cindy! I’ll be adding a video soon to show how to guarantee a big rise each time with the bread
Hi Arman…is the video ready for this keto bread yet? Also, after readings comments, people are talking about adding keto maple syrup and apple cider vinegar into the recipe, yet they are not IN the recipe? What gives?
We have done Keto 4 1/2 years. Our biggest disappointment has been bread. In general we just didn’t eat any, but every now and then a person wants a sandwich. I tried numerous recipes. Also tried store-bought bread that were terrible! This is the best recipe of all!
Yes….please! I would love to know how to make the bread rise higher as well. It’s a tiny little loaf not an option for sandwiches.
Made it, loved it, and looks exactly like yours! I did use a thinner pan as suggested.
So great to hear that, Marlo!
Arman – My husband has been experiencing some horrible health issues, and after Mayo kind of gave up on him, we decided to tackle his issues from the inside-out aspect, and have experimented with eliminating dairy and all grains (he was diagnosed with celiac disease several years ago, and has been ‘gluten free’ for years). To our amazement, his symptoms have almost totally disappeared! So now I am looking for dairy-free, grain-free recipes so he can enjoy some “normal” things to eat! Can’t wait to try this bread recipe!
This is the best keto bread I have had. All the bread mixes taste so much like almonds. I will use this always. Thank you for making my crab salad even more delicious. I used a flax and hemp mix. And I used an avocado olive oil blend. But I followed the directions exactly. I even made sure to adjust to the oven I was using. Thanks again. I will certainly be checking out your other recipes.
This is the BEST keto anything I have ever baked! It has the taste & texture of regular bread. I’ll be making this bread regularly! Thanks for the great recipe!
You are so welcome, Barbara!
This is excellent!!! I’m not doing Keto, but I am low-carb. I also have several food intolerances that make breakfast really tricky. One option is avocado toast but having that daily needs to be low carb. This is perfect! Thanks so much for sharing! 🙂
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Finally an easy to make – no complex recipe, simple directions and the most delicious bread! Flavourful and not eggy tasting at all. The keto maple syrup gives it a bit of a sweet taste, but not overbearing. Again, thank you!
This bread is awesome & so easy to make. You can make so many variations based on this recipe. I make this once a week. My dog even waits for a bite. 😋
I used monk fruit sweetener and it turned out to be super delicious in my opinion. This is my favorite so far. Thank you very much!
🙂 Thank you, Nikki- glad it worked well 🙂
Thank you for this really good bread recipe.It was easy to make and holds a good structure
I thought 5 eggs would give it an eggy taste so I modified it a little; instead of 5 eggs I used 2 eggs and 3 flax eggs(1 flax egg = 1 tbsp ground flax seed + 3 tbsp water) . It turned out just great !
Thanks for the feedback, Nidhi!
Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?
Not for this recipe
Hey Armin,
My wife and I really like your bread recipe. However, we live at 6,800 feet altitude in Colorado Springs, so wondering if we should double the baking soda and vinegar. Bread rises 2 inches or so at most. Still great but would like some fluff. Advice?
Thanks!
Hi Doug! This bread really doesn’t rise very much at all, so I think you’ll fine keeping this as it is 🙂
I did the recipe with chia seeds instead of flaxseed and I was very satisfied with the result.
Thanks!
I was wracking my brain trying to decide if I should use ACV after reading the reviews. In your recipe there is NO mention of that ingredient. Curious if you edited this recipe and removed it. I followed this recipe as is and didn’t use ACV. We’ll see! I’m excited to see the outcome.. I’ve followed your recipes before and enjoyed them.
obsessed with this keto bread recipe. Turns out perfect every time.
Can I omit or replace apple cider vinegar to something else??
You could try white vinegar.
Best keto bread. I often make two loaves at a time and freeze one for later.
My favorite keto bread.
Cwn i sub chia seeds for flaxseeds? If so how much? Chia is much better nutritionally. I do a strict keto because I have cancer but my cancer is not aggressive, so I’m trying to kill it the cancer of course not myself.
I haven’t tried Silas- but I’m wishing you the absolute best health possible.
Hi! I would really like to try this! 😃
Is it possible to subtitute ground flaxseed with something else? Psyllium husk/powder maybe or something else?
Thank you for your answer!
Hi Anita- I haven’t tried you’ll need to experiment and see 🙂
Hi Anita, I’ve tried substitute with psyllium husk and it works. 🙂
I have been without eating bread for 4 years. Yes, that is right. I went on keto 4 years ago; it worked tremendously but it was not a lifestyle I could stay on and honestly, it is not something you should be in a constant state of unless you are a cancer patient. So, I cycle in and out of keto 2 times a year (Christmas and summer) but even when not in keto I don’t do bread. I decided with all of the successes I have had with your recipes, I would give this a go. Honestly, it is one of THE BEST breads I have ever had. I had a slice toasted; and once slice not. I followed the recipe except I added 1/2 scoop of Amazing Grass glow biotin powder. I thought I would be the only one to eat this in the house. My teenage daughter has eaten 3 slices already; toasted with some organic butter, coconut sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Your recipes continue to be amazing. Thank you so much for providing alternatives to what’s not healthy out there. You are the best!
What can take place of the eggs? Will flax eggs work?
The eggs cannot be replaced in this recipe, unfortunately!
Do you know what the amounts are in metric?
I’m unsure, but you can try an online conversion tool 🙂
Can this go in a bread maker? If yes do I need to add yeast?
Haven’t tried!
This is the BEST keto bread recipe I’ve ever made.
