Pea Protein Skillet Bread
Description
Pea Protein Skillet Bread is crafted from a simple mixture of egg, pea protein, coconut flour, olive oil, and a few leavening agents. The mixture is beaten until smooth and then shaped directly in a non-stick skillet into either burger buns or hot dog bun shapes. Cooking with the lid on helps the bread cook through evenly without drying out, producing a tender yet structured bread. The texture is influenced by the pea protein and coconut flour, resulting in a protein-enriched bread alternative.
The bread can be served as a healthier substitute for traditional sandwich bread or burger buns, with adaptable shapes and seasoning options to complement fillings. Because it is cooked on the stovetop, it is convenient for quick bread preparation without heating an oven.
When flipping the bread, use a large spatula and lift gently to keep its shape intact, especially if shaped into longer forms like hot dog buns. The recipe can be scaled up to prepare multiples at once, and flavor variations can be made by incorporating herbs or spices into the batter.
Ingredients
- 1 egg large
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons pea protein
- 1 ½ tablespoon coconut flour
- ⅛ teaspoon salt fine
- ½ teaspoon sugar substitute
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Add 1 large eggll ingredients to a medium a bowl and beat well with a fork or hand mixer until smooth.
- Transfer the keto bread dough onto a clean non-stick skillet. Using a silicone spatula, shape the dough to be about one inch tall. You can make the bun round (for burgers), long (for hot dogs) or any way you like.
- Cover the pan with a lid and put on medium heat, for about 4 minutes on the first side.
- Remove the lid and gently lift the bread to check underneath. Turn the bun over when the crust is browned, close the lid again, and "bake" the other side for about 3 minutes – a little less than on the first side.
Notes
- Flip the bread carefully using a large spatula to avoid breaking it, especially when shaped long.
- Add herbs or spices to the dough for different flavor twists.
- This recipe is easy to double or triple for extra buns.
