Keto Coffee And Bread: My Morning Routine

The keto diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet that involves reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. This diet is claimed to help with weight loss, improve certain health conditions, and enhance performance.

A keto bread recipe for a bread machine can be made using the following ingredients:

- 1/2 cup of Anthony's oat fiber

- 2/3 cup of flaxseed meal

- 1 1/4 cup of Anthony's vital wheat gluten

- 1 cup of room-temperature water

- 2 tablespoons of room-temperature butter

- 1 tablespoon of active dry yeast

The bread machine makes the process simple by mixing, rising, timing, proofing, and baking the bread. The recipe yields a moist and satisfying loaf that can be used for toast, French toast, and sandwiches.

Best bread machines for keto bread

The Zojirushi Home Bakery Virtuoso Plus Bread Maker is a favourite among many, with its 15 different pre-programmed "courses", including a wide variety of bread, each with the choice of light, medium, or dark crust. It also has the option to create custom programs. The machine has two kneading paddles, a 13-hour delay timer, and a large window to check the progress of your bread as it bakes. It produces great aeration on the interior and tasty bread with a crisp crust.

If you're looking for a bread machine that can make mini loaves, the Zojirushi Home Bakery Mini Breadmaker is a great option. It has eight different settings, including basic bread, soft bread, French bread, bread dough, cookie/pasta dough, cake, jam, and quick baking. The machine is compact and has a carrying handle, making it perfect for small kitchens or counters. The loaves are 1-pound and can be made in less than two hours with the quick baking setting.

The Cuisinart Compact Automatic Bread Maker is a budget-friendly option that produces "full-size" loaves while taking up less counter space. It has 12 cooking programs and three crust shades (light, medium, dark), with options including gluten-free bread, jams, sauces, cake, and more. It can accommodate up to a 2-pound loaf, but it's recommended to stick to 1.5-pound recipes as larger dough batches may rise into the lid of the machine and then deflate.

Tips for making keto bread

Ingredients

• Almond flour – Use blanched almond flour, not almond meal. Almond meal will typically yield a heavier and more dense loaf.
• Salt – A pinch of salt is a must. Otherwise, the loaf will be too bland.
• Baking soda – This is the leavening agent that gives the bread some rise and fluffiness.
• Eggs – Use room-temperature eggs. Five eggs might sound like a lot, but it makes all the difference, especially when skipping the yeast.
• Butter – Use unsalted butter. If you want to make the recipe dairy-free, substitute the same amount of butter with unrefined coconut oil.
• Sweetener – This keto bread recipe is not sweet, but adding a sweetener will balance out the salt and make it taste neutral.
• Xanthan gum – This makes the bread more chewy and more sturdy.
• Cream of tartar – This helps stabilise the egg whites, helping them form peaks more easily. You can skip it, but then you’ll want to avoid carton egg whites and it’s extra important for your whites to be at room temperature.

Method

• Combine the dry ingredients and melted butter – Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, sweetener (if using), xanthan gum (if using), and sea salt to a food processor. Pulse until uniform. Add the melted butter and pulse again until crumbly.
• Whip the egg whites – Use a hand mixer or stand mixer with a whisk attachment to whip the egg whites (and cream of tartar, if using) to stiff peaks.
• Add the whites to the food processor – Add half of them (not all of them yet!) and pulse briefly until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix, or they will break down.
• Fold together – Use a large spatula to fold the mixture from the food processor into the remaining egg whites very gently, without breaking down the mixture, until no streaks remain. See my tips on this below.
• Bake the keto bread – Gently transfer the mixture to a parchment paper-lined loaf pan and bake until the top is golden first, then tent the top with foil and bake again until the bread is firm and doesn’t make a squishy sound when pressed.
• Cool the bread – Let the bread cool completely before slicing. This allows the texture inside to set properly.
