Eating bread was one of the hardest things to give up when I switched to Keto, so I was on a mission to find a keto bread recipe.
Sandwiches and salad had been a lunchtime staple and I am a girl who likes her routine, and
after some epic fails with a few bread recipes, I finally found this recipe courtesy of the Diet Doctor and it won me over big time!
So far I’ve tried this recipe as cinnamon toast, a grilled cheese sandwich, panini’s, BLT’s, and sliders. Next, I need to see if it will work as a bread crumb substitute in meatloaf.
Something to keep in mind is there are a few different brands of psyllium husk powders out there and they can affect the color of your bread. If you use Yerba Prima the inside of your bread will have a slight purple hue to it. Now that isn’t wrong but sometimes for my photography, it might not be the look I’m going for so I use the Now brand.
Because we eat bread frequently I like to double the recipe which gives me about 18 smaller size buns.

I find the rolls cut easier if you let them cool a bit.
Another option, add some minced garlic and you can enjoy it as garlic bread.
