Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.
CAKE:
1/2 cup sour cream
4 tbsp black cocoa
2 tbsp regular cocoa
1/4 cup water (59ML)
100g melted butter
1/3 (75g) cup sugar substitute
2 eggs
[quads id=1]
2 cups (192g) almond flour
1 tsp baking soda (or powder if using non-Dutch processed cocoa)
2 tsp vinegar
ICING:
8oz Cream Cheese
5 tbsp sugar substitute
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup(67g) peanut butter
Bring the water to a boil and add it, the vinegar and egg whites to the bowl, while beating with a hand mixer for about 30 seconds. Don’t over mix the dough, the consistency should resemble Play-Doh.
Moisten hands and form dough into 4 or 8 pieces of bread. You can also make hot dog or hamburger buns. Place on a greased baking sheet.
Bake on lower rack in oven for 50–60 minutes, depending on the size of your bread. They’re done when you hear a hollow sound when tapping the bottom of the bun.
Serve with butter and toppings of your choice. Store the bread in the fridge or freezer.
The keto bread contains 2 net carbs per bun (a similar bun of regular bread may contain about 20 grams of carbs). This makes it a decent option on a ketogenic diet. Expand the nutrition tab above for the full nutrition facts.
In all baking, and especially in low-carb baking, the ingredients and amounts used are important. The eggs and ground psyllium husk are hard to replace in this recipe.
If you don’t like almond flour or if you have an allergy, you can make this recipe with coconut flour instead. Substitute the amount of almond flour for a third as much of coconut flour and double the number of egg whites.
For a different look and some crunch, sprinkle seeds on the buns before you pop them into the oven – poppy seeds, sesame seeds or why not some salt flakes and herbs?
Flavor your bread with your favorite seasoning to make them perfect for what ever you’re serving them with. You can use garlic powder, crushed caraway seeds or your homemade bread seasoning.
The keto bread is 100% gluten free, just like all of our low-carb and keto recipes.
Sprinkle seeds on the bread before you pop it into the oven – poppy seeds, sesame seeds or why not some salt flakes and herbs?
If you make this recipe into 6 pieces of bread they each contain about 2 grams of carbs.
What do you do with the three leftover egg yolks? Béarnaise sauce, of course!
