Nut-Free and Seed-Free Keto Breads

All of the keto bread recipes in this section use coconut flour instead of a nut or seed flour. For most nut-allergy sufferers, coconut flour is a great alternative for baking with. Also, coconut flour is low in carbohydrates so these bread recipes can be enjoyed without kicking you out of ketosis.

If you’re not familiar with coconut flour, it is flour made from ground dried coconut meat. Most of the oils are also pressed out of the coconut meat along with the water, so coconut flour is mostly fiber!

Registered Nurse Kayla Grossmann, RN says, “Unlike other flours, coconut flour is naturally 75% fiber in composition, containing 9-10 grams per two tablespoons.” It also contains trace minerals while being low carb and gluten free.

When cooking with coconut flour, note that it does not behave like other flours because it has hardly any fat or protein in it. So, if you don’t add some sort of binder and some sort of fat to the recipe, then you’ll end up creating something that falls apart and tastes really dry. Most low-carb bread recipes using just coconut flour will also use a lot of eggs. This is because the eggs provide protein and fats to counteract the lack of those components in coconut flour. That’s why bread made using coconut flour can sometimes taste a bit eggy, unfortunately.

But if you want to keep some for another time, it freezes really well.

Crackers and Flat Bread Keto Breads

That way you can enjoy a delicious and super nutritious, high fat snack.

There are lots of reasons to include more low carb nuts in your diet. According to Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D., “The latest scientific word on the health benefits of nuts comes from researchers at California’s Loma Linda University who found that eating nuts on a regular basis strengthens the brainwave frequencies seen on electroencephalograms (EEGs) that are linked to cognition, healing, learning, and memory.”

Paleo Cracker-Wafer{y}-Thing

– Paleo On A Budget

Ingredients: almond flour, eggs, water, fresh rosemary, garlic powder, salt, pepper.

Often on a specific diet, you can miss out on the crunch! These crackers give it all back and more! The herbs used here give them a lovely taste that would go well with salsa or other dips, but they can also be made in different flavors. One idea would be to use paprika to spice things up. This makes a great partner for pork dishes and barbecue sauces.

Almond Flour Keto Breads

If you’re looking for some great ketogenic bread recipes, then almond flour recipes will generally produce the best results. Almond flour has more fat and more protein than coconut flour. That means the bread produced will be less dry and have a texture closer to regular wheat bread.

Almond flour is pretty easy to buy, but if you don’t have access to it, then you can make your own easily by just food processing some whole almonds. You’ll usually end up with a coarser flour (often called almond meal) than store-bought almond flour, but for most ketogenic recipes, it’ll work just fine.

Other nut flours can be used in place of almond flour, or if you want to play around with flavors, you can use a mixture of different flours. Popular nut flour options include walnut flour, cashew flour, and pecan flours. However, note that while nuts and seeds are considered very low carb foods, they do still contain some carbohydrates (other than fiber). Check out our table here to see which nuts and seeds you shouldn’t eat too much of on a ketogenic diet.

We often get asked if it’s possible to just take a regular wheat flour bread recipe and switch out the wheat flour and put in coconut (or almond) flour instead. Unfortunately, it’s not that simple of substitution and that’s why we recommend you follow one of these tried and tested ketogenic bread recipes instead of trying to cobble one together by yourself. If you just want to experiment, then please, by all means, go ahead. But you might want to use one of these keto recipes as a starting point in your experiments.

Other Keto Breads

In our search for delicious keto bread recipes, we also found a bunch that didn’t quite fit into the other sections. So instead of throwing them out, we’ve listed them here so that you can give them a try at your leisure.

A quick note about flaxseed meal as it’s used in several ketogenic recipes for bread- We’ve found that flaxseeds, when ground, can go rancid very quickly. That’s why we don’t use it in our own recipes anymore. However, if you want to use flaxseed meal, then we recommend you make your own (just buy flax as a whole seed and then place it into a food processor or a coffee grinder and process well). That way you can use freshly ground flaxseed meal that isn’t rancid in recipes.
