Perfect Primo Bread
Like I’ve said before….I am a self admitted BREAD JUNKIE. I love bread. I like it toasted with butter, I like it grilled with cheese and bacon, I like it slathered with peanut butter and jelly. French toast, cinnamon toast, pizza toast. Panini, club sandwich, toasted with tuna, chicken salad. Egg sandwiches, finger sandwiches, BLT. Fluffernutter, ham & cheese, open faced turkey & gravy. Patty melt, Monte Cristo, Po’ Boy. Rueben, Sliders, & Dipped (in soup. au jus, sausage gravy)
So when I went low carb in July, giving up bread was the most difficult part.
Earlier this month I posted about my desperate search for the perfect bread recipe. The reason for THIS post….is that I may have FOUND IT!
Check it out low-carb, banting, LCHF, Paleo friends. A delicious bread with under 2 carbs per slice! It grills, toasts and spreads very well. It tastes as close to regular bread as it gets and it looks like white bread. Definitely worth a try!
Ingredients
1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350*
- Add eggs to food processor and process about 1 minute
- add bacon grease and melted butter to eggs, mix until well combined
- Add remaining ingredients, mix until it is a very thick milkshake consistency.
- Scrape into a buttered loaf pan.
- Bake for 40 minutes, make sure it passes the toothpick test.
- Allow to cool before slicing into 16 slices
*Store in fridge for up to a week.

Hi Joy, the number one thing people seem to miss on a low carb plan is bread. It’s hard to believe that in January it will be two years since bread crossed my lips. Like you some bread recipes have just not been a success. This one looks great. I hope you don’t mind me reblogging this one. ;)
I am jealous of your willpower! LOL Thanks for reblogging :)
Lol 😝😭😭 I just have a lil more time saying no to the temptation

Sharing with you all Joy’s low carb Paleo bread from Joyfulgirl.org I hope this will assist those of you who are eating low carb and are missing your bread.
Thank you for sharing!
Your quite welcome I pray it brings you a lil extra traffic
It looks GORGEOUS! I’m definitely going to have to try this. Reblogging as well! NICE WORK!!
Thank you! I hope you enjoy it!
I did! I made it as a loaf and it is amazing! I had a friend give me 2 dozen farm fresh eggs the other day and I knew right away what I was going to make with it :) Fantastic as toast and also made some stuffing out of it as well. I also ‘tweaked’ it a little to make hot dog rolls. Thank you so much for creating this!
Thank you!!! For enjoying it! Tell me about the hot dog roll tweak? That sounds like a need in my life!
I did some substitutions, took a little tweaking to get it just right:
Ingredients (makes 4 rolls):
6 tbsp coconut flour
3 tbsp unflavored whey isolate
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp bacon grease
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp xantham gum
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
4 eggs
I wrote it up here (made a link to your original recipe :) as it is amazing for a loaf of bread!)

This looks like THE SOLUTION! Look at the structure and color! Now, how does it taste? Oh, I’m going to find out. Today. Yes. Oh yesssss.
It is still a bit on the odd taste scale but I think its always going to be that way as long as you are using almond and coconut flours. However the eggs, bacon grease and butter really give it a less strong almond flour taste. Its pretty good! You can substitute the bacon grease with coconut oil also , but that gives a more coconutty flavor. :)
BACON!! :) Those are the magic words:) I’m going to try it just as written first, Then I was thinking hemp seed oil because it has a nutty flavor and the cooking temp is low enough to not break it down. I’ll report back after if it comes out different.
This looks awesome! Bread is definitely at the top of the list for things I miss while on a low-carb diet. Just looking at that toast made me want to slather on the peanut butter or jam :). Can’t wait to try this out!
Thanks Marti! Hope you enjoy it!
It looks pretty great. I have been making fat bread (http://freetheanimal.com/2012/07/fat-bread-third-times-the-charm-mission-accomplished.html) and the macros are GORGEOUS, but the outcome is not really the same as bread. :) Looking forward to trying this out.
I will definitely be trying your Fat Bread! It soounds yummy, I love Macadamia

We don’t eat dairy, can I substitute butter for anything else. Thanks.
Joyce, I think that given the heavy egg content, you would be able ti substitute coconut oil measure for measure with no problem….the next time I make it I will try the all coconut oil and see how it comes out! I’ll let you know!
