Low Carb Flax Bread

Keto Side Item Recipes > Keto Recipes

One of the biggest things that I missed when I was on a ketogenic diet was bread, sweet sweet bread. It made life easy when I needed something quick, but it was never in my pantry because it’s practically a carb overload. This was one of my go-to recipes when it came to low carb bread, and can be modified to fit any taste. You want sweet? Add some Da Vinci Sugar-Free syrup. Want savory? Add some nuts or spinach.

You can practically make any alteration to the bread to suit your needs, depending on what you are going to be using it for.

I went through tons of recipes before I came up with something that had actual consistency of bread. Something that satisfies the craving you get in the middle of the day when you start wanting lunch.
