Thislow carb bread recipe with almond flourcame about somewhat by accident during my Sundayketo meal planning. I had been making the flattened version of my 4-ingredientalmond flour biscuitsto use for sandwiches each week, but I wanted to create an almond flour bread that is much closer to a traditional bread. This is one of the closest ways I’ve come to a carb-free bread loaf. Although almond flour bread is not quite as low in carbs as cloud bread or my white keto bread (both of which are lighter and fluffier), this one is a low carb gluten-free bread that has a taste and texture closer to a whole wheat variety. It even has a crusty exterior!
This one is one of my favorite low carb bread recipes for everything from toast to sandwiches — and will easily fit into your low-carb diet! I’ve been making it for years, but recently updated it to use a hand mixer and the results are even better (more on this below).
After dozens of tests, I only make this loaf with Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour. That’s because its fine-milled texture makes each slice taste more authentic than other flours, all while keeping the carb count ultra low. You can truly taste the difference!

Almond flour just doesn’t work the same way as wheat flour. But, you can still do everything you can to help this bread rise:

Done before it actually is! And if you take it out too soon, it will fall and worse, it will be gummy inside. Here are 2 ways to test for doneness:
In general, err on the side of more time and not less. You can always cover the top if it starts to burn, though I’ve never had to do that.
Wrap low carb gluten-free bread in parchment paper, not plastic. Store on the counter for 3 to 4 days, or in the fridge for up to 1 week. It does get a little hard at the end, similar to wheat bread from the store (perfect for keto French toast or low carb croutons).

It will trap moisture and ruin the texture. If it gets a little damp or gummy with time, you can pop it in the toaster to fix that.
Yes, you can freeze low carb bread for 3-6 months. Slice and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Once frozen solid, transfer your (almost) carb free bread slices to a freezer bag. (Alternatively, you can freeze in a freezer bag right away with pieces of parchment paper between the slices.) Reheat in the toaster.

Easy Almond Flour Bread Recipe No Yeast
I have made many keto bread recipes since I started eating low carb. And I've got to say - this almond flour bread is one of my favourites! It is such an easy recipe and requires only a few ingredients.
I regularly use it as sandwich bread in lunch boxes. We love it with salmon and cream cheese, topped with smashed avocado and a poached egg or simply toasted with butter and sugar free strawberry jam.
Full disclosure here - low carb bread will never taste exactly like white bread or sourdough. You CAN taste the almond in almond flour bread. I think it has a pleasantly nutty and ever so slightly sweet flavor.
Bake The Best Gluten Free Bread With Your Bread Machine
This recipe contains psyllium husks. Psyllium does not only help with the fluffy texture, but also makes your entirely grain free loaf taste a bit like whole-wheat bread. Last but not least, psyllium is a fantastic source of fiber!
Some keto bread recipes use as many as 7 eggs to help bind the dough. The result is a distinctive egg taste and weird spongy texture, which many people dislike (including myself).
I used only 4 eggs in this recipe. And to prevent ANY eggy taste, I omitted 2 of the egg yolks, using only 2 egg yolks in the recipe. It works so well! My almond flour bread is fluffy and not spongy at all.
Almond Flour Bread Recipe (gluten Free)
And there's one more secret ingredient that helps this bread have a texture that resembles regular bread: xanthan gum. Low carb bread lacks the gluten which occurs in wheat, which can make it crumbly. The xanthan gum gives grain free bread a stronger structure and a better crust.
Almond flour: I have made this recipe with both very fine almond flour and with coarser ground almonds / almond meal. Both work well. The coarser your almond flour is, the more rustic and country-style your bread will be.
Psyllium husk: I used whole psyllium husks in this recipe. The term is slightly confusing - they actually are not whole at all, but look like little thin sticks. If you want to use psyllium husk powder instead, you need to HALVE the amount stated.

Xanthan gum: Since keto bread does not contain gluten, it is more fragile than bread made with wheat flour. That's where the xanthan gum comes in. It gives gluten-free bread a sturdier texture and makes it easier to slice without crumbling.
Crack 2 eggs into a large mixing bowl and add 2 additional egg whites. The recipe works best if the eggs are room temperature. Whisk the eggs and egg whites for 2 minutes until frothy. You can use a hand mixer or a food processor.
Update June 2022 - additional step for an even lighter bread: Instead of beating the whole eggs, separate the eggs. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Beat the egg yolks until fluffy and pale in colour.

Combine half of the beaten egg whites with the egg yolks and mix briefly. Reserve the other half of the egg whites to fold in at the end.
If you have separated the eggs and beaten the egg whites, carefully fold in the second half of the stiff egg whites now.
Fill the batter into a loaf tin lined with baking paper. If you don't use a silicone loaf pan line ALL SIDES with parchment paper so the bread will release easily.

Bake the bread in the oven at 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit for about 45 minutes or until a knife or skewer inserted comes out clean!
After it has baked for 30 minutes, check the bread. Once the top is golden, cover it loosely with a piece of aluminium paper. This will prevent the top from getting too dark or burning.
Absolutely! If you use a small 1-pound loaf pan, you will end up with a perfect sandwich bread/toast shape. (If you use a regular 9 x 5-inch loaf pan your bread will still taste great, but will end up flatter.)
