Ingredients

This bread is made from just a handful of ingredients, which you probably already have in your pantry:

Main Ingredients:

• Almond Flour: The base of this bread, giving it that delicious, slightly nutty flavor and low-carb profile.
• Baking Powder: Helps the bread rise and gives it a light, fluffy texture.
• Egg: The egg acts as a binder and gives the bread structure, keeping it moist and tender.
• Butter (or Coconut Oil): Adds richness and helps to make the bread soft and flavorful.
• Salt: A pinch of salt enhances all the flavors.
• Optional: Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, or Seasonings: To add flavor variations (this is optional but highly recommended for a savory twist).

(Note: Exact measurements are provided in the recipe card directly below.)

Instructions

Making this bread is incredibly simple! Here’s how to whip it up:

Melt the Butter

In a microwave-safe mug or bowl, melt the butter (or coconut oil) in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds.

Mix the Ingredients

To the melted butter, add the almond flour, baking powder, egg, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together until smooth. If you’re using any optional seasonings, stir them in now!

Microwave the Bread

Pop the mixture into the microwave and cook on high for 90 seconds. That’s it! You’ll see the bread puff up slightly, becoming golden and firm.

Cool and Slice

Once the bread is done, let it cool for a minute or two. Then, slice it in half (or as you prefer). You’ll have a perfect little loaf to enjoy however you like.

Additional Tips

Here are some extra tips to make sure your keto bread is perfect every time:

Try Different Flavors

Get creative with your bread! Add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, or even a little shredded cheese to give it different flavors each time.

Use a Different Mug

The size of your mug or bowl can affect the texture of the bread. A wider, flatter mug will give you a thinner loaf, while a taller mug will create a thicker loaf.

Make It Sweet

If you’re in the mood for a sweet treat, you can add a little bit of cinnamon and sweetener (like stevia or monk fruit) to the dough. Serve it with some butter or sugar-free jam for a delicious breakfast or snack!

Double the Recipe

If you want to make a bigger batch, simply double the ingredients and microwave in two separate mugs or one large bowl.

Store the Bread

This bread is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in the fridge for 2-3 days. For longer storage, freeze individual slices and toast them when you’re ready to eat.

FAQ Section

Q1: Can I make this recipe with coconut flour instead of almond flour?

A1: Coconut flour is more absorbent than almond flour, so if you use it, you’ll need to adjust the amount. Use only about 2 tablespoons of coconut flour instead of 1/4 cup of almond flour, and add more liquid (such as an extra tablespoon of water or milk) if needed.

Q2: Can I use egg whites instead of whole eggs?

A2: You can use egg whites, but the texture might be a bit different. The bread will be slightly lighter and less fluffy compared to using a whole egg.

Q3: Can I make this bread without a microwave?

A3: Yes, you can! You can cook this bread in a regular oven by baking it at 350°F (175°C) for about 12-15 minutes. Just keep an eye on it and check for doneness by inserting a toothpick.

Q4: How many slices does one “loaf” make?

A4: This recipe makes one small loaf, which can be sliced into 2-3 pieces, depending on how thick you slice it.

Q5: Can I freeze this bread?

A5: Yes! You can freeze individual slices and toast them when you’re ready to eat. It freezes well and can be stored for up to 1-2 months.

Q6: Can I use a different fat, like olive oil or avocado oil?

A6: Yes, you can use olive oil or avocado oil as a substitute for butter. However, using butter gives it a richer flavor, which is why it’s the preferred choice.

Q7: Can I add cheese to the dough?

A7: Absolutely! You can add shredded cheese to the dough for a cheesy version of this keto bread. Just mix it in before microwaving.

Q8: Is this bread suitable for a gluten-free diet?

A8: Yes! This 90-second keto bread is naturally gluten-free since it’s made with almond flour instead of wheat flour.

Q9: Can I make this recipe without the baking powder?

A9: Baking powder helps the bread rise and gives it its light, fluffy texture. If you skip it, the bread will likely be denser and flatter, but it will still be edible.

Q10: How can I make the bread fluffier?

A10: For an even fluffier texture, make sure your egg is well-beaten before adding it to the dough. You can also try adding a pinch of baking soda to the mixture for a lighter rise.
