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.

Surprisingly good and so easy to make!
Any ideas how to cook this in a conventional oven? I don’t have a microwave. Thanks
I like to add two teaspoond of almond butter. Yum yum
Yum! So delicious, just what I wanted tonight. I made it to the recipe, then toasted and buttered. Mmmm, so good. I’m going to make a sweet one next with just egg whites and serve it with no sugar jam and whipped cream 😋😁
When I make my grandkids traditional French toast or pancakes, I make this 90 second bread for myself and add a pinch of salt, cinnamon, and vanilla. Cook, put on a plate, pour some sugarfree maple syrup. I don’t feel I’m missing out.
I added 1/4 cup Parmesan, based on another recipe. This was really good!
I used a 5 inch casserole, making it pretty thin, but closer to the size of sandwich bread. I’m using it tonight to have an actual sandwich for supper!
PS Sorry, I took a nibble already lol
This was the BEST microwavable keto bread ever! The taste and texture are perfect. no strong egg taste. I just made one in my mini waffle maker. It was the perfect mock Eggo! Thank you so much for this recipe. I can’t wait to try your others! ❤️❤️
Enjoy!!
Thank you I used a silicone ramekin and it came out perfect and didn’t need the knife it just fell out. I’m wondering if I could add a tablespoon of cottage cheese. I whipped it up in a mini cuisanart also little hard to get it out of there. Next time I
Doubling the recipe to make extra. It’s so simple also very filling with an egg!
Agreed! I haven’t tried with cottage cheese so I’m not sure what it till do to the texture and flavor but if you do try it please update us!
I made this recipe once before- both in the oven and microwave and it turned out great. The second time I made it I accidentally used baking soda instead of powder… the bottoms of them came out green with a strange scent. I don’t want to waste them but a little nervous if it’s safe to eat, if I made some sort of strange chemical reaction.. I also added salt, garlic powder and onion powder. Thoughts?
I would toss it out and start over as the baking soda is very strong.
Thank you so much! Really easy and pretty good!
Best (and quickest) version of keto bread I’ve ever made! I tried with both almond and coconut flour and there are negatives and positives to both. While coconut flour version gave me the egg smell, it tasted lighter. And I wasn’t able to taste the egg despite the smell. Almond flour version had more of a savory taste but felt heavier. But both of them were easy to make and the consistency was fantastic.
I didn’t know what to think after reading all the comments, but decided to try this. I am so glad that I did! I have been eating Keto for a while now and lost over 50 lbs. I also eat Gluten Free and it is difficult to find recipes that are both Keto and GF. We love your Banana Bread recipe so now I am going to try the Almond Flour Banana Bread recipe too! Thanks so much for sharing!
Deeann, yes it’s difficult to find recipes that are both Keto and GF.
Do you have any sites that have both of those in recipes?
I’ve had to be GF since 2012 and I ended up gaining weight from the high carbs in GF baking. I love eating now since I don’t get stomach issues anymore since going GF. I’m new to Keto trying to get those pounds off now.
Mine came out slightly soupy on top and very soupy on the bottom. Used Costco almond flour, olive oil and large eggs. I kept adding heat in 30-second increments after the first 90, still no luck.
Mine was a flop. I used Bob’s Red Mill almond flour from whole almonds, olive oil and baking powder. Microwaved 90’ then 60’ more still crumbly. Is it the whole almond super fine flour?
“I used Bob’s Red Mill almond flour from whole almonds, olive oil and baking powder.”
Did you use an egg? If so, perhaps you need a larger or smaller egg. If not, you need an egg.
Forgot to say I added a little grated parmesan and salt n pepper
Made this tonight, quick easy and not bad at all for a grain free bread! I’ll be able to have scrambled eggs on toast again!!
Will it work with flaxeed flour?
And which of the 2 flours you mentioned is preffered, taste wise?
Almond flour or Coconut flour?
Thanks.
This was great! I added some chilly flakes and a few sprinkles of parmesan cheese. Will try other flavor combinations next time!
A lovely, quick, cheaper and healthier bread. I used oat flour with mine and it came out perfect.
Brilliant recipe.
I also added 2tsp powdered sweetener & 1/2 tsp banana flavouring to make it into Banana bread.
Very easy !
Been craving avocado toast for 40 days!! Tasty!! Loving Keto down 25 pounds in 45 days!
Way to go!!
ive been on keto diet now for 2 weeks , can i make this bread ? haven’t had no carbs at all for 2 weeks now ?
I don’t provide nutritional advice, but I would suggest eating in moderation. Start with a slice.
Very good. I have only tried one. The next one will be egg white only with bagel seasonings. Thank you!
Delicious and super fast and easy to make. Have been experimenting with various diary free Keto bread and this one hits the spot. I replaced butter with organic, grass-fed ghee and the result was simply amazing! Well done and thanks for sharing your recipes!
Love!! I made it with almond flour and and olive oil and toasted it. I added a bit of salt as well, toasted it and slathered it with butter. Delicious!!
Absolutely love it
Just tried this in an 8 ounce ramekin. It almost overflowed, but made a nice thick bread to cut in half. I didn’t like the taste when made with the coconut flour. The almond flour was better. It could use a pinch of salt, but I only used oil, I will try again with butter. I will be making these again, with diabetics and celiacs in the family.
Almond flour 170cal/3net carb, Oil, 120/0, egg 70/0 is actually 360 calories and 3 NET (I think 6 total without subtracting out fiber) carbs for this tasty bread.
An amazing bread-like texture. Sometimes you’ve got to try it to believe it.
I wonder if this works with a flax egg. And maybe even with quinoa flour. So many ways to experiment!
I’ll be honest: I didn’t believe it will work.. I’ve been prepared to try and throw it out after it failed. Needed to use two small ramekins and to my great surprise and delight I got two wonderful small buns 😀 They tasted great. I could taste a bit of egg, but in a toastie with cheese it wasn’t a problem. Thank you for a quick bread recipe that actually works!
Simple,quick and tasty. Thank you
Thanks so much, with this recipe, protein mug cake and cookies I cannot believe this is a diet! I’m loving it
thank you for the article
Love this recipe and used it before! Such a great latenrsitve to bread! Can I lessen the amount of oil? Maybe 1/2 Tbsp? I’m trying. To keep the fat content down.
Pretty good and very easy! I used coconut flower and it was a tad eggy and coconutty – might test with almond flower in the future.
Either way it’s great to have a low carb vessel for my cheeses, hams, avocado etc in lieu of my favorite breads and crackers.
Have tried other’s, this one came out PERFECT. Made a ham and cheese with mayo, nice to have a sandwich without feeling guilty.
Wow! my first foray into keto was AWESOME thanks to your recipe! The muffin was good. The recipe was sooooo super easy and edible that I conjured up a dessert on my second try and mi novia and I, we were delighted with the confection.
I get over 300 calories when figuring out this recipe. What am I doing wrong?
This recipe is perfect and exactly what I needed! Thank you so much for sharing!
