TABLE OF CONTENTS
Once I adapted to a ketogenic lifestyle I soon discovered that low carb bread substitutes were either super expensive or tasted like cardboard. Not so with this recipe! I seriously use it at least once a week when I need a quick bread for keto meal planning.
I use this 90 second mug bread for:
English muffins in eggs benedict
Toast with peanut butter
Overnight french toast
Dipping in soup
Sandwich making
Stuffing
Keto cinnamon buns
Tuna melts
French toast
and tons more!
All you need is four ingredients:
1 Tbsp melted butter
4 Tbsp almond flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 egg
Mix all four ingredients into a microwave safe mug and microwave on high for 90 seconds. Be sure to mix all of the ingredients thoroughly or the bread will have a funny consistency and be too dry or too moist in spots.
I experiment with this recipe all the time! Because it’s a single serving, the ingredients are not that expensive so why not mix it up? Try adding stevia, cinnamon, garlic powder, salt, rosemary, true lemon, cocoa etc. Not all at once of course lol.
You can also put the ingredients into an oven safe dish and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees if you want to avoid the microwave all together. Or pour the batter into silicone muffin liners for quick low carb cupcakes to take to your next party.
The possibilities are truly endless! Be sure to check out my Focaccia Mug Bread recipe too!
Find low carb substitutions for your current favorite recipes. Like cauliflower instead of perogies and radishes instead of potatoes.
Maintain a healthy balance of protein and fats. Sometimes its hard to get enough fat and/or protein in a ketogenic diet so be sure to include a balance of both in your dishes.
Plan ahead and use tools like this Meal Planning Printable to reach maximum success.

The difference is that you can eat our bread with complete freedom from the guilt and nutritional downsides associated with "regular" bread, because ours has 0g net carbs* and 0g sugar per serving.
What it comes down to is asking yourself, “Does this product's nutritional value and net carbs fit my keto diet?” So, yes, keto bread is keto and there are true keto breads out there worth eating (check out Sporked's list of the best tasting keto bread to buy).
The SOLA Sweet & Buttery Keto-Friendly Bread is our top pick because it is light, fluffy, and contains only 2 grams of net carbs per slice. If you want to try your hand at making your own bread, just add olive oil and yeast to the Scotty's Everyday Keto Bread Zero Carb Mix for a fresh loaf.
Almond flour is a low glycemic index food. Compared to wheat flour, almond flour has fewer sugars and carbohydrates. Switching to almond flour can help people with diabetes manage their blood sugar levels more effectively.
Almond flour bread is a quick recipe that can be made by stirring ingredients in a bowl, without yeast. Almond flour is known to have a lot of health benefits. Made from ground almonds, this flour is gluten-free, low in carbs and rich in nutrients, particularly vitamin E and protein, mentions Healthline.
One of the key factors behind Hero Bread's popularity is its ability to cater to a diverse range of dietary needs. Whether it's for those following a keto diet, diabetics seeking to manage their blood sugar levels or simply health-conscious individuals, Hero Bread offers a viable and delicious alternative.
Hero Bread won't interfere with ketosis and is better than regular bread. But it contains harmful ingredients like canola oil, modified wheat starch and wheat protein, spiking inflammation. So if you're a bread lover, I'd suggest eating Hero Bread in moderation when you first start keto to help with carb cravings.
Unlike refined white bread, which can cause rapid spikes in blood sugar levels, whole grain, and whole wheat bread contain complex carbohydrates and fiber. These components slow down glucose absorption, leading to a more gradual and steady rise in blood sugar, making them a better choice for individuals with diabetes.
You can, maybe a slice or two here and there, but you ideally don't want to be eating too much of it. This is because a keto diet involves eating minimal carbs; less than 50g a day. However, a slice of bread contains around 20g of carbs, which is quite a chunk of your daily carbohydrate allocation.
Peanut butter can definitely be part of a keto diet, but it's best to stick to plain options that are free of extra flavors and sweeteners. Almond butter is a good choice, too, and it's slightly lower in carbs. Additionally, you should be mindful of your portion size if you're trying to lose weight.
On Nutrition Facts food labels, the grams of dietary fiber are already included in the total carbohydrate count. But because fiber is a type of carbohydrate that your body can't digest, it does not affect your blood sugar levels. You should subtract the grams of fiber from the total carbohydrate.
Cream cheese: Cream cheese is very popular in the keto diet. At only 84 calories per 1 ounce serving, it has 1 gram of carbs and 2 grams of protein but packs 8 grams of fat per serving. It can be a keto-friendly snack or meal addition when more fat is needed.
A typical slice of cloud bread has zero carbs, 36 calories, and 2 grams each of fat and protein. Use it in place of English muffins, burger buns, sandwich bread, and more.
Ezekiel bread is a high-carb food. People with diabetes and those trying to lose weight should only eat it in small amounts. Ezekiel bread is not consistent with a keto diet. Although Ezekiel bread is technically flourless, it is not a gluten-free product.

An almond meal is best suited for those adopting keto or paleo diets. It contains only 4 grams of carbs (total carbs minus fibre) per serving, making it a better keto-friendly option.
Also, similar to almond flour, almond meal is low in carbs, and while the macros vary by brand, it's generally considered a keto-approved baking ingredient. Cooking Tip: While almond meal can create baked goods like cookies and muffins, its coarse texture makes it an excellent keto-friendly breadcrumb substitute.
