7 Egg Keto Bread Recipe

Trying to go keto, but having a craving for bread, or need a quick sandwich for lunch? This keto cloud bread loaf is a keto bread recipe made using egg whites and protein powder and tastes just like real white bread.

I have been working with clients wanting to lose weight using a low carb/keto approach. During this time, I’ve found that my almond flour keto bread has too much fat to be helpful to my clients anymore.

In my opinion, being able to add butter, mayonnaise, butter or cheese to a sandwich makes it a little more interesting, keeping keto sustainable long term.

, maybe I could take my cloud bread recipe and just make a loaf from that recipe. I wanted to keep it simple, using ingredients you can purchase from your grocery store. Always using ingredients you have to purchase online just makes everyone frustrated.

Whilst these recipes are great (and you should definitely follow both Brenda and Maria as they are fantastic recipe developers) adding sour cream means you can’t add other delicious fats.

Also, allulose is what’s called a “rare sugar”, and when made commercially, manufacturers use enzymes to convert fructose from corn and other plants into allulose. Not exactly what I call health food.

This bread is made with only 3 ingredients. Egg whites, whey protein powder and cream of Tartar. All available at your local grocery store.

You’d think that so much egg white would make the whole house smell like eggs… I’ve made this recipe a lot recently, and there is no eggy smell whatsoever.

The only time you might encounter an eggy smell when baking this recipe is if you have the oven turned up too high (causing a burning smell) – which also happens in the toaster if the bread gets too close to the heating elements.

You can purchase egg whites in the egg section at your grocery store. Thanks to all the low-fat diets, buying plain egg whites is actually pretty easy.

This brand is available at both Coles and Woolworths. There is also a free-range version of the same product which is in a green coloured container.

You can use any whey protein powder you like, but I find this one works the best. It is unflavoured, and it’s in the health food section at coles.

When whipped, egg whites (also known as albumen) can swell up to eight times their initial volume. The acidity of cream of tartar helps egg whites achieve their full volume potential, and stabilizes them by helping hold in water and air.

Compared to my keto almond flour bread, this has substantially less fat, which means you can add fats on top, like nut butter, mayonnaise, avocado or butter.

What is Cream Of Tartar (and do I have to use it?) When whipped, egg whites (also known as albumen) can swell up to eight times their initial volume. The acidity of cream of tartar helps egg whites achieve their full volume potential, and stabilizes them by helping hold in water and air.

Flax Whey Protein Bread

Need it to be 100% Dairy-Free? There is very little dairy in whey protein isolate, however, if you need it to be 100% dairy-free, you can also use egg protein powder with the exact same results.

Keto Cream Cheese Almond Flour Bread · Fittoserve Group

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.

Keto Bread Recipe

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.

Best Fluffy Keto Bread Recipe (not Eggy And Easy!)

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.

The Best Keto Egg White Bread

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.)

FYI: The loaf pan in the image above is a large 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. It's the pan I used in the video for my first loaf. If you use a small loaf pan, the dough will fill the entire pan. The loaves in the images and the one shown at the end of the video are made using a small loaf pan.

Let the bread cool fully before slicing. It is fragile when straight out of the oven, but firms up as it cools.

It's disappointing to take your bread out of the oven and finding out that it's tiny and hard as a rock. If you're new to baking bread, there are a few simple rules to follow so this does not happen.

1.) Make sure your baking powder is fresh. Check the use-by date or test it by putting a little baking powder in a glass with warm or hot water (cold water does not work). If it fizzes, it's fresh.

2.) Beat your eggs until they are frothy to get air into them. When you add the almond flour do not over-beat so the dough stays airy.
