Bread is one of the most delicious food items, but also one that leaves us feeling guilty whenever we eat too much of it. But not all breads are the same! While watching your diet and eating bread at the same time was once unthinkable, this is no longer the case. LCHF bread is an excellent substitute for regular bread, as it contains a lot less carbohydrates – and results in a lot less guilt. It is healthy, filling and delicious.
This recipe is probably the one that comes closest to carb-free bread, i.e., bread that contains no carbohydrates, and yet still has a crispy crust and a soft centre. And the best thing about it is that LCHF bread is very filling, as it’s packed full of proteins and fibres.
Most LCHF breads are very crumbly because they have no gluten to hold ingredients together. Bread made with this recipe, however, is just like real bread! Topped with Argeta, this snack is outstanding in terms of the LCHF or keto criteria!
