Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This keto bread is everything you need from a classic loaf, just without the carbs. It’s low in net carbs (only about 2g per slice), high in healthy fats, and packed with protein thanks to the eggs and almond flour. You’ll love how versatile it is: toast it, butter it, sandwich it, or enjoy it with soup. It’s soft, a little nutty, and incredibly satisfying without being heavy.

My Personal Experience

When I first went keto, I tried every low-carb bread I could find—store-bought, Pinterest-famous, you name it. Most of them were either too eggy, too crumbly, or just… weird. Then I started testing my own versions at home, and after some serious experimenting, this one became my go-to. It reminds me of a light pound cake texture-wise, but more savory and totally bread-like. I make it every Sunday now, and it’s always gone before the weekend ends.

Required Equipment

Mixing Bowls

You’ll want at least two mixing bowls—one for your dry ingredients and another for wet. It helps keep the texture smooth and avoids clumping when you combine everything.

Whisk

A good whisk makes it easier to beat the eggs and blend everything together smoothly. It really helps incorporate the air needed for a fluffier loaf.

Loaf Pan

I use a standard 8×4 inch loaf pan. It gives the bread a nice compact shape and helps it bake evenly.

Parchment Paper

Lining the pan makes cleanup easier and ensures the loaf comes out without sticking or breaking.

Oven

Your regular oven works just fine. Make sure it’s fully preheated before you put the bread in to get the best rise and texture.

Ingredients & Substitutions

• 2 cups almond flour – The base of the recipe. It gives a mild, nutty flavor and a soft, moist crumb.
• 6 large eggs – These add structure and moisture. If you prefer less eggy flavor, use 5 eggs and add 1 tbsp of olive oil.
• 1/4 cup melted butter – For richness and moisture. You can swap with coconut oil or ghee if you prefer dairy-free.
• 1 tbsp baking powder – Helps the bread rise. Make sure it’s fresh for best results.
• 1/4 tsp salt – Enhances the flavor.

Optional swap: Almond flour can be replaced with sunflower seed flour for a nut-free option. Just expect a slightly different taste and color.

How to Make Easy Keto Bread

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it well.
2. Mix the dry ingredients: In one bowl, stir together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Mix the wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Add in the melted butter and mix well.
4. Combine: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until smooth.
5. Pour the batter into the pan: Smooth out the top with a spatula.
6. Bake for 30-40 minutes: Or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool before slicing: Let the bread sit in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack.

Tips for This Recipe

• Use room temperature eggs for better texture.
• Don’t overmix the batter—stir just until combined.
• Store it in the fridge if you live in a humid area.
• Slice with a serrated knife once completely cool to avoid crumbling.

Optional Additions

• Add 1/2 tsp garlic powder or Italian seasoning for a savory twist.
• Sprinkle sesame or flax seeds on top before baking for texture.
• Fold in shredded cheese for a cheesy version (cheddar or mozzarella work great).

Serving Ideas

• Toast and top with butter, nut butter, or keto jam.
• Make an egg sandwich for a quick breakfast.
• Serve alongside soup or salad.
• Top with smashed avocado, chili flakes, and sea salt for a quick lunch.

Storage Recommendations

• Room Temp: Up to 2 days in an airtight container.
• Fridge: Keeps well for up to a week.
• Freezer: Slice it and freeze with parchment between slices for up to 3 months. Toast directly from frozen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour? Not directly. Coconut flour absorbs a lot more liquid, so you’d need to adjust the egg and liquid ratio. It’s not a 1:1 sub.

Can I make this dairy-free? Yes! Swap the butter with coconut oil or ghee.

Why does my bread fall in the middle? It might be underbaked. Be sure to test it with a toothpick and let it cool completely.
