This easy Paleo Bread recipe tastes great and is made with just 7 nutrient dense ingredients. That’s a good thing because “gluten-free” isn’t necessarily healthy, especially when it comes to bread. That’s why I created a gluten-free paleo bread recipe that’s made of high-protein ingredients that won’t leave you dragging. I’m loving every slice that comes from this new paleo diet friendly bread recipe.
Paleo Bread Recipe
This bread is just a bit lighter and fluffier than my other breads. It has a nice nutty flavor from the flax meal which reminds me a little bit of a whole wheat bread. And, it has a lovely little bit of a sweet buttery taste from the almond flour, which adds an incredibly rich quality to baked goods.
Substitutions for Paleo Bread
I’ve been working on this Paleo Bread recipe for several months and have tested it a couple of dozen times. In fact, every time I create a recipe I test each and every ingredient addition or subtraction. That’s why I think it’s kinda funny when people leave comments below recipes (or on Instagram) asking how such and such ingredient substitution will turn out.
Experimenting with Paleo Bread
I wish we didn’t have to test every adjustment to a recipe to figure out if it works. It would save us all so much time and money! If I only had a crystal ball that would give me the answer to all of your substitution questions, I would be so happy. Unfortunately, I don’t. So be adventurous. If you have an idea, test it. Then come back here and let us all know if it works.

Low-Carb Bread
I’ve updated this Paleo Bread recipe to reflect the way we now make it. If you would like to make the original recipe, just add one tablespoon coconut oil and one tablespoon honey. The bread is fantastic either way!

More Easy Paleo Recipes
This gluten-free bread recipe is based on my Bread 2.0. However, this bread does not contain arrowroot so it is a better low-carb bread recipe. Paleo Bread has a fabulous nutrition profile that has more of the healthy protein and fat that we all need! Here are some of my other healthy paleo recipes:

Thank’s a lot for this recipe, I realized that I was gluten intolerant (and grain) a week a go and have not been able to eat bread for breakfast.
I did my OWN version right from the start:
Exact same recipe BUT I switched flaxseed for hempseed!
Result?
Super delicious, more omega3 and protein and it was still perfectly firm.
(First time I made my own bread)
cheers!

Hi! I feel kind of silly, since everybody else seems to be enjoying this bread but for me.. well – I managed to make a mess out of it. How come my bread turned out a pile of dry flour? I double-checked the recipe to see if I missed something, but I followed the recipe exactly. Can you think of something I could have done wrong? I would really love to make this bread! Thanks =)

I bake this bread every Saturday night so my hubs and I can have it for breakfast on Sunday mornings. I’ve started adding to it some cinnamon, nutmeg, an extra egg, and whatever fruit and nuts we have on hand (this week, I threw about a cup of fig purée into the batter and baked it for an additional 10 minutes; next week, walnuts and raisins).
Thanks so much for the recipe. :) It’s become the highlight of our weekend routine.

Hi, i love your blog and recipes! Just starting in Paleo with no grains and sugar at all for a month(being a Celiac for year and a half). I did the recipe with no Flax seeds just replace it using more coconut flour and used applesauce instead honey. The result look very different from your picture and has a strong egg flavor. I am thinking using jam instead applesauce next time and using more almond flour than coconut, any advices? Thanks!

This is great paleo bread! I’ve tried other recipes which produced a heavy, dense product, but this recipe reminds me of a nice whole wheat consistency. It’s a great option for those of us who don’t eat wheat!

I made the paleo bagels from your new cookbook. Love them!!
Sandie says
Gonna try yr paleo bread today . Sounds fantastic !thanks
Jenny says
Just made this, thank you for the recipe! My loaf pans were too wide so I used 6 Texas size muffin tins and they came out great. I used maple syrup instead of honey because, well, I live in Vermont and my husband sugars. I am fairly new to Paleo and I’ve been an avid baker for decades-I miss baking! I will experiment with this recipe for sure, using it as a base. The first thing I am imagining is lemon poppy seed and baking them in mini muffin tins. Or baking in a cast iron skillet in the oven like corn bread. And maybe a morning glory version. Oooh my world just opened up.

Looks absolutely DELICIOUS!! I need to find a replacement for honey… And syrups in general though.
Sam says
Can I make this without the flax? ): I don’t eat flax. Will it work if I leave it out? If not can I substitute something?
