Best Ever Almond Flour Keto Bread

This almond flour keto bread combines almond flour, psyllium husk, eggs, butter, and baking powder to create a low-carb loaf with a soft, fluffy crumb. The psyllium husk provides structure and fiber, while eggs contribute to the rise and texture. The bread has a moderately dense but tender slice suitable for keto diets.

Ingredients

  • 2 egg large, at room temperature, white
  • 2 egg white & yolk, at room temperature
  • 2 cups / 200g almond flour
  • 2 tbsp / 30g butter melted, or olive oil
  • 4 tbsp / 20g psyllium husks OR 2 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ tsp xanthan gum
  • pinch of salt
  • ½ cup / 120ml water warm

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit electric or 160C / 320F fan and line a small loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Beat the 2 eggs and the 2 additional egg whites for 2 minutes until they are fluffy and have doubled in size. (Option for an even fluffier bread: Separate the eggs. Beat the egg yolks until pale and frothy. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Combine half of the stiff egg whites with the yolks. Set aside the other half of the egg whites.)
  3. Stir together the dry ingredients.
  4. Add the melted butter and water to the egg mix.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to egg mix and blend until you have a smooth dough. Don't over-mix. (If you have separated the eggs earlier, carefully fold in the remaining stiff egg whites with a spatula now.)
  6. Fill the batter into a lined baking tin and bake for approximately 45 minutes or until a knife inserted comes out clean.
  7. Let cool fully before slicing.

Notes

  • Slice size varies; one slice contains approximately 4g net carbs assuming 12 slices per loaf.
  • A regular 9 x 5 inch loaf pan can be used, though the bread will be flatter than standard wheat bread.
  • Use a small loaf pan to achieve better loaf shape and density appropriate for keto bread.
  • If the crust browns too fast during baking, cover the loaf with foil to prevent burning.
  • Different psyllium husk brands may change the bread's color without impacting flavor; use trusted brands such as BonPom or Green Origins.
