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 is great. Just made a grilled cheese and it tastes very good. Thanks!
I am on a similar diet AND keeping myself from eating processed foods is proving to be a great thing for me. Finding foods that replace things I typically eat help this transition become MUCH smoother! Thank you!! ❤️
This is great. It is both quick and easy to make single servings!
i made this for breakfast this morning because i really have been missing having some bread ever since i started keto. i used just an egg white instead of the whole egg and added one tablespoon of sour cream in it. i also did it in a sandwich container. Toasted it on a skillet with some butter and i spread some of the pumpkin butter i made a few days ago on top. DELICIOUS! love this recipe.
Oh my! Thank you! Yum! I made a grilled cheese and i am happy!
Any idea how to do this with an oven?We do not have a microwave.
Yes, we have oven instructions in the recipe notes. To Bake in Oven: Use a ramekin and bake at 375 for 10 minutes.
fantastic! I’VE tried different breads and this is on top of my list. It has nice TEXTURE, great TASTe and adding blueberriesand a little swerve for a nice afternoon treat would make it even better.
EASY, quick and one of the best breads I’VE tried on pinterest.
to die for thank YOU. made this today for lunch and put cheese lunch meat and fried them in butter the consistency was like English muffins not eggy
Yum! Can’t wait to try. Thanks for sharing!
why is there no protein amount listed in your recipe?
I made these today; and i have to say, i wish i knew the recipe earlier; these are great. I addede a tablespoon more almond flour, and a little more baking soda. They came out great, and almost the thickness of a enGlish muffin. I sliced and toasted well, and added cream cheese. DeeeeeelicH.😋
I’ve been craving bread for sandwiches etc. This recipe is so yummy! And very versitile! Made my first grilled cheese sandwich! Yummy so simple to assemble and came out exactly like you said! Thank you so much!
THis is great! It satisfies the desire for bread. I’ve started adding 1 teaspoon pesto and 2 teaspoons oil inn place of the oil/butter. SO YUMMY – It adds a great savory flavor. Might try cheesy garlic variation next time.
I made it the other day. Bicarbonate or baking soda made mine so salty too. I have to put less next time.
bECAUSE IT SAYS BAKING POWDER NOT SODA, THEIR NOT THE SAME
*they’re
*grammar
Finally! A bread that actually tastes good! I had almost given up until my daughter asked me to try it. It worked out just fine with regular baking soda. I also made it with nut flour mix and half a teaspoon of Monkfruit sweetener. Delicious with my pb and J. Next, I am going to try and make a strawberry shortcake with this. I am so thrilled with this recipe!
Can the batter be made the night before? I’m usually pretty sleepy in the morning and would love to be able to just stick it in the microwave instead of mixing it first. Thanks.
I have not tried making these the night before and I’m not sure how the batter will hold up but that does sound like a great idea! I will update you if when I try it the night before.
Outstanding ! mAde with almond flour and then grilled up on a pan with a little more butter.
Really great recipe. Fluffy and light, toasted it with some butter, made great quick breakfast. Going to try doubling the recipe tonight for burger buns. THANKS again!
has anyone tried to save this for another day? Wondering what refridgeration or freezing would do? Do not know why I have all caps, sorry
I made this 90 sec mug bread and it was good. I think your nutritional information is wrong.
I am 80 years old, and have decided that high bp might come down if I clean up my eating, and move a bit more. So far, its working. Thank you for this very nice little recipe, and wish me well.
i love it, i did just what the rec said. Then i put it in a frying pan with a li butter brown both sides so g 😊.
The 90 second low carb keto bread is excellent , tried it for the first time TODAY and loved it . Not only does it taste fantastic , it is extremely easy to Make too. It is definiTely a keeper . Loved it. Thank you
Made it again and added a touch of pink salt and swerve and used mct oil instead of other oils/fats (not sure how this changed the nutrient content amounts), but adding the salt and swerve sure added a nice taste to it; also put it in a latte bowl and only 60 seconds in the microwave, and it made a nice “loaf” that you could cut in half and use more like a regular slice of bread; will give some berries a try next time — yummy!!!
can you use mct oil instead of other oil or butter? if so, any idea what the nutritional value is for the fat? thanks 🙂
this is so amazing! I just saw this for the first time and thought I’d try it right away – what a quick and versatile fix for keto bread; i can see if you mix in a tsp. swerve or some fruit this could be a nice mid-afternoon treat …. thanks!
just making sure this whoLe thing is one serving correct?
This is amazing “bread”!! I made it for my daughter who needs keto bread. She loved it, AND she doesn’t like bread. I loved it also, and I am a big bread lover!! Wow…..
You probably Used baking soda not baking powder as Per recipe! Just a thought, as I’ve made this mistake once before😫& baking soda is very salty!!
Love this recipe and other similar ones, partley because it is so easy to remember ! I have been having fun experimenting with different add ons too. Since Im not doing Keto, just lower carbs/no to low sugar, i have added a tablespoon of dark chocolate chips -darkest i could buy – to the mixture for a pretty close version of a chocolate chip muffin, reserved for special treat only! A teaspoon of no added sugar fruit jam also is great on it with hardly any extra carbs added. Just an east fun filling recipe with alot of potential beyond the basics!
i USED ALMOND FLOUR SO MY BREAD WAS ONLY 1 CARB! i USED AN EXTRA LARGE EGG WHICH MADE IT JUST A LITTLE EGGY BUT IT WAS ALSO SUPER FLUFFY ANS MOIST. i DIDNT EVEN HAVE TO TOAST THIS AND IT WAS AMAZING.tHANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS RECIPE i HAVE BEEN SICK AND NOT WANTING TO EAT MUCH OR COOK A LOT AND THIS HIT THE SPOT!

Does anyone have a way to make more than one at a time? Possibly in the oven? With a large family it would be quite a chore to make about 15 of these just one at a time.
WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!! I’ve been doing this keto thing for about 5 months (or 55 lbs) one of the things I have really missed is a piece of bread with a number of my meals. I read this recipe 25 minutes ago, I made it, shared it with mum and Wow!
Mindbogglingly tasty.
Can I replace baking powder with sodium Bicarbonate?
can paelo flour be used instead almond flour ?
No
Haha… I didnt read the dir about the coconut flour vs almoNd flour and it came out really dense andheavy, but still good flAvor. Will Try again tomorrow.
Super easy to make. Toasted nicely. Makes a great addition to my meal menu. Breakfast is much more interesting now.
I am one month into the keto life, and i have missed bread. This recipe was so easy and welcomed. I appreciate that you included the variation In ratio between almond and coConut flour. I will try adding cinnamon and stevia for a sweet breakfast treat with My bacon and eggs. Thanks for the quick Fix to my need for bread.
I made this recipe, however found it to be too bitter using the recommended amount of baking soda.. 1/8 tsp of baking soda is sufficient. the bread is a bit bland and the texture could be compared to between a muffin and a biscuit. certainly a good option if you are trying to watch your carbs or on the keto diet.
Baking powder…. per recipe.
