The best soft and fluffy low-carb Keto bread made with almond flour in the microwave in just 90 seconds. It’s great for sandwiches, grilled cheese, with butter and much more!
If you’re on a low-carb, paleo or keto diet then you’re going to fall in love with this keto bread recipe. It’s so soft, fluffy and delicious, you’ll find it hard to believe that it’s actually keto. It’s all made in the microwave in just 90 seconds!
This bread is perfect for the mornings when you need a slice of bread to serve with your egg and bacon, for a breakfast or lunch sandwich, or for making grilled cheese. It’s perfectly soft and holds up great, especially when toasted.
For the bowl, I like to use a large ramekin or any small microwave-safe bowl. If you’re making grilled cheese, a small square sandwich size container works great. 
To Make Microwave Keto Bread, You will Need:
1 egg
1 Tablespoon butter or oil
3 Tablespoons Almond Flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
To make, simply combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and pour into a greased microwave-safe bowl or ramekin. Microwave for 90 seconds. Flip out of the ramekin and slice in half.
To toast: butter a pan or skillet over medium heat and toast the bread until golden and crispy. Alternatively, toast in a toaster.

This was sooo tasty! I added salt, onion flakes and garlic pepper. Toasted it in olive oil THEn Ate it with cream cheese and watercress. Amazing! Just finished it now! It was a little dry I’m wondering what would happen if I added a little mayo for moisture?
Your additions sound delicious! I haven’t tried adding mayo but that sounds like a great idea!!
i THOUGHT IT WAS REAL BREAD!!
it was delicious! exactly what I needed to curb my craving for bread. I added a sprinkle of shredded cheese and it was perfect! really liked the texture too. thanks for sharing the recipe.
Do you need the baking powder? Does it make a difference?
Thank you for this recipe. It’s good. I am wondering if anyone has come up with a really good loaf of low carb and gluten bread that rises so the slices are full sized. I have been looking and experimenting, but so far haven’t found anything.
I Added some powderEd sugar subsTitute and Ground cinnamon and nutmeg – wow!!
WOnderful! Fried in garlic butter and served with steak and veggies. A lovely addition to the supper table instead of garlic toast.
This was absolutely 😋…Thanx sooooo much..NOW I CAN HAVE SANDWICHES☺..I GUESS U COULD ALSO PUT IN A MICROWAVE 4″ SQUARE AND MAKE GRILL CHEESE..
How do these hold up to freezing?
I notice that many recipes fOr bread and crackersuse tapioca flour, it this four ok On keto-woe.
I dont have double acting baking pOwder. Would it work with just regular baking powder?
My friend just told me today about 90 second bread, i had no clue what she was talking about. i tried one other one but it had way too much coconut taste. this was the bomb!!! i did what someone else posted and added a splash of parm. cheese and a tiny amount of garlic salt. fried it in butter and put a slice of smoked gouda cheese. holy crap, that was so satisfying! Outstanding! sharing with all my (like me) keto newbies.
***Sorry if this comes out all caps, that’s all that it’s allowing me to type in the comment box*** I’ve made this bread twice. The first time I added 1 Tbsp of Parmesan and it tasted good but a bit dry. So the second time I added 1 tbsp shredded Parmesan and 1 tbsp shredded extra sharp Cheddar Cheese and it came out scrumptious. I’ll be having this for breakfast A LOT! I only gave it 4 stars because of the dryness of the original recipe.
Do you have to use double acting BP? I ONLY HAVE REGULAR AND WABT TO MAKE THIS
Finally an easy AND del keto bread. Not dense And not eggy. It smelLs very eggy but doesnt have a strong egg taste.
it really is that good! believe the other reviews. my mixture rose high enough to create 3 slices of “bread.” i had it with sausage crumbles in cream cheese and also with low carb maple syrup – both were super tasty. my picky husband even liked it, something i rarely hear when he tried my latest low carb recipe. i think this would be good with strawberries and whipped topping, too, as it has a slight, wet shortcake-like texture/taste. i can’t wait to experiment and try cinnamon and other ingredients.
Did you use Almond or coconut flour? Ty
THis was so delicious and so easy! I’m So happy i stumBled across this recipe 🙂
Eating this as I type! Turned out very nicely – i made a toasted ham and cheese sandwich for lunch 👍🏻 I was a bread monster before going low carb, and although i haven’t really missed it, every now and then i crave something like this. Quick, easy, Low prep and tasty – who could ask for more? Well, maybe some low carb strawberry jam to go on it?
WHAT IS THE PROTEIN VALUE? that is important to know for a keto diet
I Think you could calculate that yourself by looking on the packages of the ingredients that are in it … and then adding them all up. As in, how much protein is in the egg you are using? Should be on the carton. Then, how much protein is in the almond flour? If it’s not on the package, there are reliable online databases where you can find this information for this recipe, and any others that you want to make that don’t show the nutritional info. Add up your totals and divide by how many servings it makes ** FOR YOU **. This part is important, as some recipes don’t always yield the amount they say they will or we want our portions a different size. Good luck with it!
First try, added too much butter accidenTally, didnt have the double acting baking powder, it still didnt maTter. Tasted terrific, day 4 of keto and was about to give in to real bread. This saved me 😉
My whole life just transf with this bread! I added a little garlic and mozz cheese and OMG!
WOULD THIS BE GOOD BUTTERED, TOASTED UNDER A BROILER AND EATEN WITH SUGAR FREE sTRAWBERRY JAM?
Could i use eggwhites Instead of an egg
I have not tried with eggwhites alone so I can’t be sure without further recipe testing!
ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE KETO BREAD. IF YOU ARE NEW TO KETO, YOU MUST TRY IT. IT’S SUPER EASY TO MAKE AND TASTES DIVINE.
i just made this! it is delicious! i like that it feels like actual bread, or as close as possible. There’s no strong almond taste either. i did not toast it, I just ate it right off the microwave. i love how EASY it is to make, for when i get my need to eat bread now craving. lol trying to go low carb is a challenge
This is just the BEST RECIPE! ADDED SOME TUSCAN SEASONINGS MAKES IT EVEN BETTER! SO MANY THINGS YOU CAN DO LOVE IT!!
I Tried TO make This TODAY BUT It raised up and Came Out like a biscuit but It was very hard aND crunchy, definitely not fluffy or flat like in the pictures – any ideas What might Have GONE wrong? I’m Thinking maybe 3 minutes in MY Microwave WAS TOO Much. But I also used Regular BAKING powder instead of DOUBLE acting ..
90 seconds= 1 1/2 minutes you doubled the time!?!
I tried this bread this morning and love it. I browned it in a skillet after the micro and it was awesome with my dippy eggs at breakfast.
I’m so happy I found this recipe and it’s so delicious! I’m new to keto so I’m trying to stay afloat by being as CREATIVE as possible. Added to my faves THANKS so much!
Is there really 25.6 grams of fat in one piece?
When you Do not have a microwave how Can it be made?
It looks good!
Thanks in advnce
Kristel
use a ramekin and bake at 375 for 10 minutes.
Can I bake this in a regular oven. I do not use microwaves
Yes, they can be baked in the oven, use a ramekin and bake at 375 for 10 minutes.
If using cOconut flour, is it really Only 1 tbS if COCONUT flour vs 3 tbs almond flour? Am i reading this correctly? Thanks
Yes, it’s only 1 tablespoon. Coconut flour is particularly absorbent and sucks up a lot of moisture!
Could i add cheese or bacon in THE mix?
I haven’t tried adding bacon or cheese but they both sound like delicious additions. I would just add a tablespoon at best.
No, it will explode!
How many grAms of protein?
I really liked this recipe, I’ll surely make THIS again
which baking powder did you use, single or double acting?
Double Acting powder!
Love the idea very much ! Thank you !
Made this KEto BREAD but it was EXTREMELY SALTY . What dID I do WRong?
Hi Barb, I just got your email. I’m not sure why it’s salty. Did you use baking powder or baking soda?
I used baking powder. That is so strange….it says double acting. Could that be why? I just love the sound of this recipe….
The only possible explanation is the baking powder. I’ve reduced it to 1/2 teaspoon to be safe!
I bet she used salted buttr……
Good catch, Jeff!
Did you use salted buttr???? If so, that’s why it turnd out so salty.
i did too, but I thought it enhanced the flavor. any body have ideas how to make this to chocolate cake (of sorts)?? got a hankerin for some dessert.
Thank you so much for sharing this easier bread recipe. I usually prefer to eat bread every morning and that has become a habit now. I can’t think of having any other thing in the morning. So now I’m trying to make different types of bread so that I won’t get tired eating the same taste. This one I find very easy to make and definitely gonna try this soon.
ENjoy!! 🙂
