If you’re on a low carb diet, then you know the grief and suffering that comes from the absence of bread. For me, toast with breakfast, a sandwich for lunch, and even more bread with dinner used to be a staple at every meal. Why not!? It's soooo dang good. So, I searched for a quick fix for low carb bread.
Fortunately, you can still eat bread (microwave keto bread) while keeping your carb count low with this Low Carb Bread Recipe! You can thank coconut and almond flour for that. I've always got my pantry stocked full of both of these flours because they compliment each other really well. Plus, they make some great microwave keto bread, too.
Both flours are low carb, high in fiber, high in protein and gluten-free. When you are following a low carb or ketogenic diet, they are a great substitute for regular flour. Often times, I think they are better mixed because they both have their own qualities.
Keto Chocolate & Coconut Mug Cake
Almond flour is my favorite because it has a very neutral flavor. And, it creates the moistest muffins and breads because it doesn't soak up moisture like coconut flour. You usually have to double or even quadruple the amount of almond flour when substituting for coconut flour. Unfortunately, a lot of people have nut allergies and they aren't able to enjoy this flour.
Known as a great anti-inflammatory, coconut flour is higher in Omega 3's. I personally think it's the healthier of the two flours, but the flavor is quite strong and can overwhelm a lot of recipes if you overuse it. In addition, it's incredibly absorbent, so you tend to get a drier outcome with most recipes. However, coconut flour gives bread the structure it needs so it doesn't just fall apart.
I discovered mug cakes and breads a few years ago, and have been hooked ever since. It's such a crazy concept to me, but with the right ingredients, you can actually get pretty good results– and in just a few minutes!
Paleo Banana Bread Mug Cake (two Ways!)
Without a doubt, this easy mug bread is definitely better toasted with a little butter. Trust me, the butter really does make all the difference! And, it reminds me of an English muffin only a little softer and less dry.
I like to change it up a bit every time I make it with different seasonings and herbs, but my favorite additions are definitely garlic powder and a little rosemary. Cheese is also good! Duh.

I’m pretty excited to share this recipe with you today. Not only is it super easy to make, but it really tastes like bread. It also looks like bread, slices like bread, and tears like bread too.
Of course it’s not your traditional yeast-rising bread. This is a low carb, keto and paleo friendly bread made with almond flour. But it’s pretty darn close to regular bread in taste and texture.

You can tear it or slice it like real bread and it is sturdy and holds up well for sandwiches, toast, etc.
The bread is made in the microwave and it cooks in under 3 minutes. When it’s done, you remove the bread from your mug and you can slice it up. I’ve also made a peanut butter bread this way that is ket0-friendly, so you might like to check out that one, too.
This recipe makes enough for six round slices of bread approximately 2 ½ inches in diameter and ½ inch thick, so you will need a tall and wide mug that holds at least 16 ounces of liquid.
Coconut Mug Cake (paleo, Gluten Free)
You should use a wide mug because if your mug is too narrow, it will be difficult to cook the bread all the way through and your bread slices will be very small. The mug I used is 4 inches tall and 3 ¼ inches wide.
The small rounds can be used for sliders, small sandwiches, canapes, fancy toasts. I like toasting mine before spreading almond butter on top or mashed avocados.
Any leftover bread should be stored in the fridge in an airtight container. It can keep for about 3 days. It will need to be reheated before consuming.

Please consult a professional nutritionist or doctor for accurate information and any dietary restrictions and concerns you may have.Every now and then, I get an intense craving for some freshly baked homemade bread. There’s literally nothing quite like the smell of a loaf of bread baking in the oven. Unfortunately, I don’t always feel like going through all the trouble and effort of baking a loaf. That’s especially now that I’m eating a keto diet as well. Thankfully, there are some pretty clever workarounds for when I get those cravings. Take this effortless keto mug bread recipe for example. It only takes a few minutes to make, it’s 100% keto-friendly, and it tastes unbelievably good. So if you’re like me and you ever find yourself craving a low carb slice of freshly made bread but you’re short on time, then this recipe is for you.
So what makes this keto mug bread recipe so effortless? Two things — the amount of time it takes to make and the small amount of common ingredients it requires. To start, simply whisk together the milk, one egg, and olive oil in a microwave-safe mug. Each one of these ingredients serves to help give your bread dough it’s beginning consistency while also adding in plenty of protein and healthy fats, the two essential components of any keto meal. I especially like the use of olive oil in this recipe, as it is known to provide a wide range of health benefits, including reducing your risk of cardiovascular diseases and even helping to prevent certain types of cancer.

Easy Coconut Flour Banana Bread Recipe
The next step is to add in two different types of flour that we’ll be using as a wheat flour alternative. The first is almond flour, a type of baking flour typically made from blanched almonds. Not only does almond flour add a delightful nutty flavor to recipes, it’s also an excellent source of healthy monounsaturated fats. And just like eating raw almonds, this flour is capable of reducing cholesterol, lowering inflammation, and helping to lower your risk of heart disease. (2)
The second type of flour used is coconut flour. Much like almond flour, this is an incredibly nutrient-dense baking flour that also provides a nice hint of coconut flavor to your baking recipes. It’s also an excellent source of dietary fiber, protein, and healthy fat. Coconut flour is also quite low on the glycemic index, which could potentially help to make it an ideal baking option for individuals
