If you are like me and are new to keto there are so many breads out there
with ingredients like flaxseed (of which I am not a fan) Psyllium husk powder,
chia seeds, and oat fiber, that you wonder "Do they even taste like
bread?" Just like many gluten free loaves I have tried over the years,
several keto loaves have also gone in the garbage! Also, just like many of the
GF loaves, the cost of most is more than I use to pay for a full meal at Mc Donald’s!
Which we all know is not aloud now on our gluten free and keto diets.
Now enters a new, quick, money saving microwaveable bread. Its fluffy,
tasty, and has the mouth feel of real bread, and all within 90 seconds, plus
the easy assembly time. It has become my new go to recipe, especially on rushed
days.
It tastes great with no sugar added peanut butter and sugar free jelly. Use
as a bun for a fried egg sandwich. Excellent for a hamburger replacement when
out of Keto buns. Spread with butter n sprinkle with a sugar free cinnamon
mixture. Top with cream cheese n sliced cucumbers. The sky’s the limit! Its
quick and easy, and really has that homemade bread feel and texture you are
missing, without all the carbs!
I hope you'll give it a try and let me know what you think.
Till next time,
Sharon
