My Keto Bread

Regarding the Almond flour, I use ground Almonds and use a food processer to grind to a fine flour. If not use fine almond flour which will cost about £13.00 from Amazon.

I have tried using olive oil but it makes the bread quite greasy so use coconut oil.

Add all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well, I use a food processor. Give it a good mix then add the melted coconut oil and give another mix then pour in warm water yeast mix a little at a time while mixing till it reaches a sticky yet firm texture.

Remove from the bowl and mix for 5-10mins using your hands until it forms into a ball. Then knead on your worktop, for a further 5-10 minutes. You won't need flour on your worktop due to the coconut oil. Place the dough in a bowl smeared with olive oil and cover with cling film and prove for 1-hour minimum, the longer the proof the better.

Or place in a loaf tin and cover with cling film and prove for 1-hour minimum, the longer the proof the better.

Place on a cooking sheet or stone and allow to prove for a further hour. or in a loaf tin allow to prove for a further hour. Place a slit down the centre.

Preheat the oven to 180C and bake your bread for 30 to 35mins or use a Meater thermostat set to 85 deg C and you can put it in the cold oven and let it come to temperature and the Meater will let you know when the core temperature is reached. Happy Baking.

On the eating side, I have calculated to get 18 slices which gives each slice 101 calories, fat content 7.1g, total net carbohydrates 1.5g and protein of 8.7. If you want the exact energy per slice weigh your loaf when cold and so the weight of your loaf 580 divides by 18 = 32 then divide by the weight of the slice you have cut. NB I have only added this as some people did ask, not teaching to suck eggs.

Enjoy!
