This protein bread contains 100 calories and 9 grams of protein per slice, making it an amazing way to hit your protein goals.
If you make a sandwich with two slices of bread, that will be 200 calories and 18 grams of protein, which is basically a protein bar!
This recipe won’t compete with your favorite loaf of fresh-baked bread, because bread is just the perfect food. But considering this bread contains 9 g protein per slice, it is
Protein Bread Recipe (80 Calories Per Slice!)
If you’re unfamiliar with self-rising flour, it’s simply all-purpose flour that has been pre-mixed with baking powder and salt. It makes life SO easy, but you can certainly mix up your own if you need to.
Simply combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and you’ll be good to go.
If you prefer whole wheat flour you can use that to make whole wheat bread, but I don’t recommend using gluten-free flour in this recipe such as almond flour or oat flour.
Pumpkin Pie Protein Bread
Since this is a no-knead recipe, for the best results we need the vital wheat gluten in the flour. Without it, this bread will likely fall apart.
Since this is high-protein bread, we obviously need to add some protein! I use PEScience, which is a blend of casein and whey protein powder. It’s the protein I use in all my recipes, and I cannot recommend it enough.
Work, but the results may differ slightly. 100% whey protein will likely be great, but pea protein powder may not work quite as well. If nothing else, plant protein will definitely add some Earthy flavor to the bread.
Vegan Banana Bread (easy + Healthy)
However, the first time I made this recipe, I used unsweetened almond milk, and it still worked great. Obviously the recipe did not contain as much protein, but it still turned out delicious.
Any milk you have should work just fine in this recipe. I don’t recommend swapping the milk out for something like Greek yogurt or cottage cheese, however, because the result will end up being too thick.
We need to use a small amount of olive oil in this recipe to help it become light and airy. Plus, the olive oil lends a really delicious flavor to the final high protein sandwich bread.
Natural Born Feeder
You may be tempted to skip the oil to save calories, especially if your goal is weight loss, but it is necessary for this recipe!
If you leave the oil out, it would only save about 10 calories per slice, so it ends up not making a huge difference anyway.
I love the flavor of olive oil, but the healthy fats it provides, but you can also use coconut oil or butter in its place.
Easy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread (high Protein)
Lastly, we need a small amount of sugar in this protein bread recipe to help the final product become light and airy. You won’t taste any sweetness, but the texture really needs it.
Heat up the 2 cups of milk in the microwave for about one minute until warm, then add it to your bowl along with the olive oil.
Mix everything together until you have a very thick batter. Traditional bread is made from a yeast-risen dough, but the batter is what we’re after for this one.
Keto Bread With Whey Protein
This bread is going to be similar to regular wheat bread you’d buy at the grocery store, but if you prefer a little extra texture, you can also mix in some sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, or chia seeds.
After 20 minutes, I like the remove the bread from the oven, cover it with aluminum foil, then finish baking for the final 10 minutes.
I find that this helps to prevent the outer crust from overcooking, but I did test this recipe without the foil and it still turns out!
Low Carb Protein Cookie Dough Bread
Remove the protein bread loaf from the oven, carefully remove it from the pan, and let the loaf of bread sit for at least one hour.
Trust me, if you try to slice this bread while it’s still hot, you will not be able to slice it thin.
Once the bread fully cools, anywhere from 1-3 hours at room temperature, you’ll be able to thinly slice it into 18 slices.
Easy Protein Banana Bread
Since there is milk & protein powder involved, I was worried it would go bad right away, but my bread safely lasted 4 days on the counter with no issues.
If you want to store this bread any longer than that, keep it in the fridge or freezer to keep it fresh.
When I toasted this bread the next day after baking it, I was really impressed by how soft and chewy it became.
Protein French Toast
This breakfast sandwich (with 2 eggs and 1 slice of fat-free American cheese) had just 365 calories and an impressive 34 grams of protein! This may just be my new favorite thing to eat in the morning after my workouts.
Since you clearly love bread, I have some other delicious recipes that you are sure to love. While I have plenty of recipes on my blog that cater to a keto diet, these recipes are not that. We want bread, and with that comes some carbs.
Quite like it. Made and consumed mine just now and I think it came very close to what i can see in the pics. one issue I found is that the crust develops very quickly preventing the bread rising a bit more, making it more compact than it needs to be. At lest it did in my case. Thinking about splitting the dough in two portions and make two smaller loafs. It would be easier to ration and also i think they might get fluffier
Keto Bread (easy, Fluffy, 5 Ingredients!)
Has anyone tried making rolls from this? Like dinner roll-sized rolls? I'm wondering if there is a difference in texture, or any critical steps in cooking that have to change?
I haven't tried it, but it would be tough with this recipe since it essentially starts out as a batter vs a dough, so there would be no real way to form them into rolls
@Matt, looking forward to hearing how French toast goes! This bread excites me as I’m not able to have yeast and this looks great
Easy High Protein Banana Bread With Greek Yogurt

Some of my favorite foods to add protein to are protein donuts, protein cheesecake, and protein banana bread. Since all those recipes are sweet treats, I made a more traditional bread recipe.
Boo's Magic Protein Bread (63 Calories & Anabolic)
Simply put, protein bread is made with every ingredient to increase protein. Unlike typical bread recipes, which use all-purpose flour, this recipe uses almond flour to make a gluten-free alternative that packs even more protein per serving.
Like in cottage cheese bread, both whey protein powder and psyllium husk powder are added for protein, fiber, and texture, making for a rich loaf of bread. The resulting recipe is super satisfying and can be used just as you would regular bread.
What I love most about this recipe is how you can’t even tell it’s loaded with protein. Some protein breads taste bland and leave a powdery texture, but this recipe has a nice crumb and fluffy interior. Your friends and family will never be able to tell this is anything other than a homemade bread recipe.

Step 1- Prep work. First, preheat the oven to 160°C/320°F. Then, line a bread loaf tin with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2- Beat the egg whites. As the oven preheats, grab a large clean and dry bowl and whisk the egg whites and salt until stiff peaks form. This should take around 5-7 minutes and can be done by hand, with a hand mixer, or with a standing mixer.

Step 4- Bake the bread. Now that you have a fully formed dough transfer it to the loaf tin using a spatula and carefully form it into an even shape.Bake the bread for
