This low-carb, high-protein, gluten-free bread is a cinch to make. It is especially tasty toasted, then topped with almond-butter, raspberry jam, and a sprinkle of salt. Add a second slice of bread to it and you’ve got a paleo PBJ!
Here are some of my other low-carb gluten-free bread recipes:

This bread is yummy — so much better than those frozen rice breads! Thanks Elana, you are my new hero.

Hi Elana,
I made this bread over the weekend.
Sadly I didn’t have blanched almond flour and was too lazy to go to the store to get some so I substituted with a mix of Buckwheat and Sorgham instead.
I’m not really sure what happened – the “batter” wasn’t batter at all – it was most definitely dough – which was a bit heavy.
I put it in my pan and baked it for 30 minutes and it came out fine, if a little bit dense.
I’m wondering if the buckwheat/sorgham combo is more dense than blanched almond flour?
I’m excited to try this again with the right kind of flour but in the event I don’t have it, can you please recommend an appropriate substitute (aside from rice, please)? Maybe quinoa might work nicely? I guess I”ll have to try!

I am unable to have any type of sugar products, and I was wondering if there is anyway to make this a sugar free recipe. HELP!!! I need my bread!

just made simple bread and tasted a slice with some butter and cinnamon and was tasty. i am taking the loaf on a missions trip for i am not sure what i will be able to eat. i also packed almond butter and now the cinnamon. i think i might add some cinnamon next time to the batter. thanks for the great recipes.

Im following low carb – grain free way of eating.
My occasional slip offs were always with bread! Well, not anymore :))
This bread is simply delicious. I would never believe it is made without flour should I not bake it myself!
I used finely grounded walnuts and flax 1:1 and substituted agave for honey, but it worked perfectly.
I love your site and thank you for all the great recipes!!! :)

This recipe is Specific Carb. Diet legal if you sub the baking powder for soda and use honey in place of agave. The new bread recipe is not legal. So I still love this recipe!
Have you tried coconut flour? I LOVE it!!
