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!

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:

I made its latest version today and absolutely I love it. I like that it does not taste like almond or coconut it tastes like a bread. A verg good bread that it’s not harmful at least with recent knowledge of us because before it I thought whole meal bread is really good for us and I was very proud to my healthy breakfast oats, raw honey and seeds but then they figured out that oats are not harmless I am wondering what is the next thing that will be deleted from my diet:((
Thank you very much for your good recipes

I made the updated recipe today and it is wonderful. I haven’t have bread in months. It’s soft, like a cupcake consistency. Love it with butter and jam. I wish I can share the picture of my bread.

Did I miss the updated version of the bread. Could you tell me where to find the recipe. Thanks
Elana says
Dorine, this recipe is the updated version :-)
Abby says
This looks great! I have everything but the golden flaxseed. How important is that to the recipe? :) Thanks!

I made this recipe (second time) using only four eggs and it turned out very well. Very easy to slice.
Tara says
I used the updated version. Left out the flax, subbed coconut oil with avocado oil, left out the honey. Baked for 45 minutes.
It turned out great. A slightly eggy flavour, but it sort of tastes like french toast so I don’t mind.
Great recipe!!

Hi Elana
I have just found your website and it is fantastic! Sitting at my computer my mouth is watering. I’m very new to the Gluten-free scene and am seriously considering Paleo as well so your website is a godsend. One question though, you mentioned how to measure the flour for your recipes and gave a weight in grams (thank you) but I have tried American recipes before and I think our tablespoon measure might be different also. How many millilitres is there in one of your tablespoon’s?
Thanks for the response. I’m just off to try the Silver Dollar Pancakes and for now I’m going to use 15mls as my measure first go around. (Australian tablespoons are 20mls so here goes!)

Just made this — so good! I used agave instead of honey and replaced some of the coconut flour with a few tablespoons of hazelnut flour. I baked at 350 in a 9×5 pan for 30 minutes and then turned down the heat to 325 and cooked for another 15 minutes. Perfection! Super soft and moist, the downside is I might eat it all in one sitting…
Karen says
350 for Oven is this F and 180 C ??

I made it this afternoon and it is delicious!! My main problem with other paleo breads was that they crumble, but this one holds its shape so well and toasts amazingly! I didn’t have honey and had to sub maple syrup and it was delicious and I doubt there was much difference taste-wise from the honey. But just FYI to those minus honey, maple syrup is a fine substitute!
Thanks!

Can you substitute coconut flour for Almond flour?
