If you’re following a gluten free, low carb or keto diet, then you know that regular wheat, rye or oat flour bread is one of those foods that you need to avoid because it’s loaded with carbohydrates. Thankfully, there are plenty of low carb bread recipes that make use of low carb flours, such as almond flour and other nut flours. For those who have nut allergies, however, nut flours may not be the best choice for your low-carb bread. The best alternative is to use coconut flour. In fact, coconut flour is more flavorful and doesn’t come with that “eggy texture” which you will normally find with almond flour.
Here’s a recipe for a delicious and flavorful low carb coconut flour bread from Megha Barot one of the bloggers at KetoConnect. It includes rosemary and garlic which gives it a really yummy flavor. The great thing about this bread is that it toasts well too. Give it a try and see what you think. Here’s the recipe:
