LOW CARB KETO FARMER’S YEAST BREAD

Course Breads, Yeast Bread
Prep Time 1 hour 20 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 2 hours 5 minutes
Servings 12 slices

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cup water warm (like bath water) , divided
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 2 pkgs 4 1/2 tsps active dry yeast
  • 2 cups vital wheat gluten
  • 2 cups almond flour super fine
  • 1/2 cup flaxseed meal ground in a blender for 2 minutes
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 6 tbs olive oil
  • 1/2 tbs butter melted

Instructions

  • Liberally grease a 10-inch wide glass or metal bowl with butter.
  • Add a 1/2 cup warm water to another large bowl and mix in sugar until dissolved. Mix in yeast and cover the bowl with a towel. After 7-10 minutes the mixture should be frothy with small bubbles. If it is not frothy, then the yeast is dead and you need to start over with fresh yeast.
  • As you are waiting for the yeast to proof, mix together all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Sift the dry ingredients through a sifter or a sieve.
  • Add remaining 1 3/4 cup water and olive oil to the frothy yeast mixture and stir to combine.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir with a wooden spoon until fully combined.
  • The dough should be sticky and rather wet. If it is too dry to knead, then add a little bit more water. Knead the dough for 3 minutes. Do not over knead.
  • Form the dough into a ball and place it in the greased bowl.
  • Preheat the oven for 2-3 minutes until the temperature reaches 100-110 degrees. Cover the bowl with a towel and place it in the warm oven to rise for 1 hour. Remove from the oven.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave. Brush the butter over the top of the dough.
  • Place the bowl in the oven and bake for 35-45 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 190-200 degrees F. The closer to 200 degrees that you get, the thicker the crust.
  • Cool in the bowl for 10 minutes. Then place a large cutting board over the bowl. Invert the bowl to release the bread.
  • Cool completely before cutting.

LOW CARB KETO FARMER’S YEAST BREAD

This recipe for low carb yeast bread is the perfect mix of yeasty goodness and low carb credibility. It’s real bread that only has 5g net carb per slice. Wonder bread, if you will.
Keto Farmer's Yeast Bread LoafUPDATE:Many of you have asked if this bread could be made in a loaf pan.  Well, good news.  I had a chance to go back and work on the recipe today and was able to reconfigure the recipe to work in a loaf pan.  Instructions are in the Notes section of the recipe.

TO MAKE THIS BREAD IN A LOAF PAN:
Follow steps 1 through 8.  Then take the risen bread dough out of the oven and place it on the counter.  Use your fist to punch the air out of the dough, 3-4 times.  Roll the dough into a loaf shape and place it in a greased loaf pan.  Allow to rise for 45 more minutes.  Then resume the recipe for steps 9-12.
