Keto Bread Easy Recipes

If you’re following the ketogenic diet, you may be missing bread. I have a Keto Bread Easy Recipes that’s light on carbs, but strong enough to withstand sandwich fillings. Best of all, no special ingredients are needed! Eggs, cream of tartar, cream cheese, and salt are all that’s needed.

For this recipe, do I need cream of tartar?

This recipe only uses cream of tartar as a stabilizer. Basically, it helps you whip your egg whites to stiff peaks faster if you don’t have any cream of tartar, no worries!

Is it possible to add cheese to my Keto bread?

It’s a must! I recommend adding about 1/2 cup of shredded cheese per batch of bread. We like a mixture of mozzarella and parmesan.

What is the shelf life of these Keto bread/buns?

Your bread will last about 3 days at room temperature, but more like a week in the fridge. You can even freeze your bread. I recommend freezing them flat in resealable plastic bags with parchment paper between each piece. To reheat, toast them on a very low setting in your toaster oven. They burn easily!

Is this bread suitable for more than sandwiches?

The possibilities are endless! Cover a slice of bread with keto-friendly pizza sauce, mozzarella, and pepperoni, and broil for a delicious mini pizza; you could even make some Keto-bread bread pudding!
