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.

easy, filling and delicious. the texture is good, but a little dry..i am guessing due to the almond flour.. low carb and gluten free
This is a perfect sustitute for a burger bun! In fact, it holds together better than alot of buns!
I would like to get your recipe by email
I Made this morning and they are as advertised. fluffy and, in my opinion, delicious.
Can the batter be made ahead of time? I’m thinking the oil will harden if kept in the fridge. Granted it will soften at room temp.
terrific bread alternative. I like butter and almond flour more than coconut flour and olive oil, but both work.
IM New to keto and thankful to have found this recipe! Can you tell me does it freeze well? Microwaving is not Available to me
Always so want to stock up.
Thanks for reply, heading off GRID tomorrow!

IM New to me TO and thankful to have found this recipe! Can you tell me does it freeze well. What is the best way to store it. I am 9ften off the Grid so microwavi g is not Available.
Thanks for reply, heading off GRID tomorrow!

Can i just say ~ yum!! This was fantastic. Just what I needed after cutting regular bread.
This works great in the 4 INCH mini waffle maker. I pour half the recipe on the hot waffle iron, cook for 4 minutes, repeat with the second half of the recipe and you have 2 slices of toasted bread (with fancy waffle design!) For a delicious sandwich. I make several batches ahead And put in fridge. I like the taste of these better than the just egg and cheese “chaffles” that are all the low carb rage now.
Just made it!!!So good!
Just made in 90sec. Im toasting it now.
What size RAMEKIN would you recommend?
It was delicious but about 100 calories more than you posted, 2 more carb grams, 7 more protein grams and 2 more fat grams. I used a different almond flour but the label was very close to yours.
When I added up the ingredients for the 90 second keto bread it came TO 309 calories, 6 g carbs, 11 g protein and 29 fat grams. How did you get less? I compared the labels of your almond flour to mine and they were pretty close so cannot figure this out.
Subtract the fiber .
I just made this! It came out perfect and delicious!
Made this for the first time. Made no additions this time. All in all, a very good alternative to bread, and it is always fresh. Try toasting, after buttering, in a frying pan on medium hi heat. great quick and easy breakfast. Thanks for sharing the recipe
Yes! Toasting the bread with butter in a pan really takes it to a whole new level!
Had a hamburger today for the first tiMe in 2 months! Tomorrow i am foing tro make CINNAMON toast!
Enjoy!!<3
You probably need to take it out of the microwave sooner, your microwave might be higher power. The longer is there the dryer and harder it will get.
I love this, made fpur time already, each time I have change it alittle, adding salt and also cheddar cheese, I used butter instead of oil today, and a small egg, toasted is delish! works great in waffle iron too!
I reckon this would be good as a scone or similar, with cream
Not so much bread. Had a funny after taste
I have been an Executive Pastry Chef for 38 yearS AND HAVE BEEN TEACHING PASTRY FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS. THE RECIPE IS SUPER SIMPLE AND COMES OUT PERFECT AND IS BETTER TOASTED (FOR A KETO BREAD). i LIKE JUST USING THE coconut FLOUR OPTION BETTER. i JUST DONT PREFER THE BREADS WITH aLMOND FLOUR.
Your comment made my day! I’m so glad to hear that this recipe is approved by an Executive Pastry Chef!!
The 90 sec Keto friendly bread is great IF YOU ADD I PACKET OF STEVIA AND THEN SLICE AND TOAST a bit. That gets rid of the eggy texture!
INTERESTING. I USED EGG WHITES (3t = 1 EGG). OVERALL A FAIRLY EGGY TASTE. wILL TRY ADDING NOOCH NEXT TIME PER ANOTHER REVIEWER’S SUGGESTION. tASTED BOTH HOT OUT OF THE MICROWAVE AND TOASTED. toasted WAS NICER.
Excellent! very easy to make. I was looking for a bread substitute for breakfast for the keto diet. This did it. like an english muffin only better.
simple and delicious. I tried to make a loaf of keto bread and it was as dense as a brick. even this only makes one serving, it is no big deal since it takes 90 seconds. Texture was fantastic.
I love this bread, I also add a pinch of salt. Made a turkey patty melt with provolone cheese and sauteed onions… obsessed with them.i split in half and ABLE to make two for 5 total carbs for both sandwiches… yummy 😋
I made mine with a jumbo egg and 4 tbs of almond flour and threw in a few blueberries. Fantastic,
this works great. in my opinion, it does not taste like scrambled eggs…
i add in a tablespoon of nutritional yeast for the vitamins and flavor. I also add a pinch of salt.
last time i made this, instead of using almond flour, I substituted 2 tablespoons of finely ground sunflower seeds with 1 tablespoon of flax meal; and coconut oil for the butter; then toasted.
YUm!
Thank you
IT was a lovely share
Really enjoy this bread alot. Cant ask for better toasted up for breakfast.
Would it be ok to add some grated cheese? Cheddar or Parmesan?
Will the recip work if i change the egg to egg whites?
Love this recipe!! Ive made it several times since discovering it. I butter then toast it in the toaster oven to get a grilled affect.
My HUSBAND Is gluten intolerant so this is a Great alternative to wheat bread, thank you!
made it this morning it was simple and great for egg sandwich, I love bread so this was a win/win
This is good – ESPECIALLY when grilled in butter. However, when i enter the recipe in my Carb Manager app, it comes up as 3 net carbs, not 2. I wonder why that is?
Tried this recipe for the first time today and it was lush! I would defo use it as a pizza base, as that’s what I miss since being on keto. I made mine in the microwave for quickness, highly recommend it if your missing bread! Thanks for the recipe 😁
omg i’M obssed!!! (Sorry my caps is stuck)
I made this and then smothered one side with tuna salad and slices of avocado. Then my bf and i split the other half with some cream cheese on it – only one net carb each!
I love how i dont have to heat up the house with the oven and that its ready in like 2 minutes!
So excited i Found this recipe!
I lOve this recipe! I use a chia egg instead of real egg (as i am vegan.). I’ve also added everything but thE bagel seasoning or rosemary/sea salt. So delicious. Sometimes i will cook for only 60 seconds if i want it a bit Softer.
I have made This 3 times now, great sub for gluten bread.
I use MCT oil in place of butter, and just mix it all up in my ramekin, pop it in the microwave. Today i added my mixture of Turmeric, ginger and pepper for a little cancer fighting BOOST
Thanks FOR sharing this
Sorry about the caps
Great for hamburgers!
Great idea! Thanks
Wow the microwave keto bread is amazing… perfect for sandwiches… without the guilt…. 😀👌
BANGin! so glad i can add this to my keto life. Yes the bread smells and tastes like egg but the key is to toast it after you make it & slice it, add CHEese and turn that bad boy into a breakfast sandwich! its bomb gimme delicious is amazing
Great, just have to try it.
This was really good. Any idea if it will keep in the fridge or on ice for a few days? I’m going camping and I want to be able to take some with me.
Love the recipe! Confused about THe carb content. When I add it up I get 7. 6 front the almond flour one from The egg??
Just made this and it was great! Perfect for a BLT. Yum!
A perfect bread SUBSTITUTE and great for breakfast SANDWICHES.
I haven’t tried the recipe yet, but I have a question. Would I be able to substitute Coconut or cassava flour for the almond flour? the last time I ate almonds I though I would die from the pain in my gut, so i’m trying to avoid that again. Would I use the same 1:1 ratio?
It says to use 1 tbsp of coconut flour instead if 3 tbsp’s almond flour
And what’s with the weird intermittent CAPS lock on the comments box?
Me again. I’ve used this recipe dozens of TIMES with varying results. I wonder if it’s because you are using volumes (tbspn, tspn) instead of weights (grams/ozs). Did you realise that a metric tbspn is different to an imperial tbspb?
Also I’m wondering if you read any of our feedback because you haven’t replied to Anything. Am I wasting my time ASKING questions?
And what’s with the weird intermittent CAPS lock on the comments box?
no
That tastes so good. I put a bit of xanthan gum in mine Because I always do in my baking. Thank you
I waited awhile to try this, certain it would be blah but decided to give it a go. I did add a pinch of salt and I used Brummel and brown butter, made with yogurt, as it lowered the fat and calories. toasted and spread some sugar free strawberry preserves. really good! texture took a bit to get used to but so excited to be able to eat bread! not on keto but recently diagnosed as diabetic so bread is a nono bc of all the carbs.
This is totally my fault for not reading through the whole post first but I just thought i’d mention that you didn’t say anything about an egg in the first part of the post where you list the ingredients. I know it’s listed in the actual printable reicpe, but of course I was so excited, I didn’t read that far down.
The leavening does that. Try using 50/50 baking soda to baking powder. I do that now with all keto baking and works and tastes better.
I originally tried this recipe using baking soda vs powder, huge MISTAKE. It made the bread extremely bitter and DISSATISFYING. I was convinced it wasn’t great at all, until I went grocery SHOPPING, and bought baking poweder and GAVE it a second try. Man, I’m glad I did! It was delicious!
I’m on a Keto diet i ENTERED THIS FANTASTIC RECIPE FOR KETO BREAD INTO MYFITNESSPAL APP AND IT GIVES ME 302 CALORIES PER SERVING AND YOUR RECIPE INDICATES THAT IT’S 220 CALORIES. CAN YOU LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS CORRECT OR IF MYFITNESSPAL IS GOING BONKERS.
SORRY FOR CAPS
Why are you counting calories? you don’t do that on keto
Yes you do when calculating all macros.
Wow. This is easy to do. No more Missing Bread. Toasted with sliced avocado, Tomato and cheese Makes a Tasty Easy Lunch
Or Fill With LeftoVer Salad and If YoU’re Meat Eater, Add Either Sliced Meat, ChickeN Having This Bread As a Regular Sandwich Has Kept Me on The ‘Straight And Narrow’ IT’s Satisfying. Prefer It toasted.Thank You,Gimme Delicious!
I used your rescipie, added a 1/4 tsp if cinnamon, sprinkled on some keto trail mix and added sugar free maple syrup. Best pancake ever 😍
Yum, a sweet version sounds delicious!
SOUNDS DELISH. i MADE THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS MORNING. i’VE FOLLOWED A LOW CARB DIET FOR THE PAST 15MONTHS AND MORE RECENTLY KETO. i’VE LOST OVER 30KGS! nOW 53KG. aM ABSOLUTELY STOKED BUT THIS IS ALSO DUE TO DAILY EXERCISE. aNYWAY, i SO MISS MY BREADS/SCONES ETC SO TRIED THIS TODAY FOR BREAKFAST – WOW! aM STOKED. wILL TWEAK TO GET A SWEETER VERSION BUT THRILLED TO HAVE FOUND THIS EASY RECIPE. I CAN NOW USE AS A BURGER WHEN I MAKE THE FAMILY YUMMY PULLED CHICKEN BURGERS – I NOW DON’T NEED TO FEEL LIKE I’M MISSING OUT!
dELICIOUS – THIS RECIPE IS A KEEPER. MOIST YET WITH GOOD STRUCTURE. tOASTED WELL AND VERY QUICK TO MAKE. i MADE IT WITH ALMOND FLOUR AND ADDED A PINCH OF SALT. WILL BE A STAPLE IN MY DIET. THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!!! i have been a bread & sandwich fiend forever. I have been on Keto, just starting my week 8 and missing bread terribly. I put off making this for a couple of weeks thinking it would be crap. OMG, so good. Strange coming out of the microwave, so soft, but out of the toaster, so good. Will be making a few ahead to do for lunches.
I add 1 TSP everything bagel spice AND 1/2 TSP BASIL . I MAKE IT IN MY SOUP MUG, WHEN IT’S COOKED I SLICE IT IN HALF AND PUT IT IN THE TOASTER AND PUT NON SWEETENED APPLESAUCE ON IT . lOVE IT .
SORRY about the caps, I couldn’t get it to post in small letters 🙁
This is good! It’s nice to be able to have bread without the guilt.
Do you have any suggestionS on what to substitute for the egg(allergy)?
Are you using this recipe for a keto diet? I haven’t tried this bread without eggs because most keto recipes consist of eggs but I would suggest trying it out with a flax egg and see how that works out.
Whoever thought of this recipe should be given an Academy Award for food!! Fantastic so happy I could have bread
Thanks for the glowing review and 5 stars! So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Made it, toasted it, was soo good. Will make again
Love it! I use 2 TBSp ALMONd flour and 1 tbsp coconut flour and a tsp of melted butter. Perfect.
When I was trying this it showed all caps. So now it looks like I can’t write. Lol.
I is that all that you put in it?
1st attempt and as good as the instructions.. perfect, had mine toasted with a typical British covering of marmite. Very tasty and look forward to experimenting.
Followed this to the t and came out well! Lught and fluffy. Will be a staple from now on..thank you for posting.
So, 5 stars For me. Loved It. The only thing I did different was use bicarb soda and I used 6 tbsp of almond meal. It toasted awesome on pan with mozzarella. Love THIS!!!!
Made this with coconut flour, it was very dry not enough moisture. It was inedible. Thumbs down!
the recipe calls for almond flour, not coconut flour. What did you expect??? Idiots that can’t follow a recipe don’t have the right to comment. But the caps lock thing on comments is weird.
I Would caution everyone to calculate your own nutrition values. Made by recipe, with bob’s red mill alMond flour, this is 7 net carbs for me. Luckily it’s breakfast so it hasn’T screwed up my keto today.
First keto bread recipe i have tried, it’s pretty good. Just ate it toasted with butter.
I’ve been told that baking powders containing aluminium (?) can cause THis.
I buy organic non aluminium baking powder.
Hi. Could you Please provide macros per 100 grams, instead of Percentage per “Daily allowance” so that I can add it to my diet PLANNER software. Thank you.
Thank you for such a quick, keto alternative for bread! Loved it.
Can this recipe be frozen, and stored in air tight container?
I tried it with coconut flour and it turned out FINE.Wondered if I could add asmidge of salt or some herbs for a bit more flavor.
I made it this morning with about 2 tsp of grated PARMESAN, a pinch of herbs d’provence, and a dash of fresh ground black pepper and it was fantastic.
Love love love! This recipe is way better than another one I tried using that called for peanut butter. This will become a staple. Thank you! 🙂
I just tried this with almond flour. Not bad. I ate half with my breakfast. Will save the other for lunch. Not a bad bread to go with an egg and turkey bavon. Would be good with jam too.
maybe your coconut flour was rancid? My only thought about this.
I’m not sure what went wrong but we don’t have a 3 ingredient version; you may have missed the egg on the top recipe. It is listed as the first ingredient.
To Make Microwave Keto Bread, You will Need:
1 egg
1 Tablespoon butter or oil
3 Tablespoons Almond Flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
I thought that it was delicious with Incredibly simple and easy to follow instructions. I’m definitely making this again. Tomorrow!
I tried your recipe and it was good but eggy. So i exchanged the egg for two egg whites and then i toasted the bread. It did not taste like eggs and it was delicious.
this is the best thing ever! I wasnt even looking for keto bread, but had ABUNDANCE of almond flour. Wow. I even fooled my 15 year old son! They taste like a biscuit. I used coconut oil instead of butter.
AWesome low carb ‘bread’! I tried both coconut and almond flour – latter just rose more! This is so easy, quick and yummy!
Glad both versions worked out for you, Lisa!
Thanks.
Add a few small rasberries to top before micrOing. Adds color and fLavor. Then serve with more berries.
everyone is asking about protein count, can you please tell us?
thanks
The nutritional info box is under the recipe box. There are 4g of protein in one bread (two when split).

Wonderful taste~ I made exactly as recipe indicated but used super-fine natural almond flour. Carbs down to 3.6g turned out delicious and perfect
So simple! I’m a so-so baker and this turned out perfect! Totally great if you’re missing bread!
i made 4x the recipe and put it ina plastic storage container to get a loaf. Microwaved for 3 min. Came out easily and was good consistency when sliced. Havent tasTed yet because it is for lunch bu smells and looks just like the 90 sec versioN which i tried and loved yeSterday.
I am usually skeptical about any bread products that I don’t buy in a store. (OK, I am a lousy BAKEr because I modify stuff out of laziness ) I tried this because I can’t stay away from bread and desperately need to loose weight with low carbs. Anyway, even with my shortcuts, this turned out fantastic!! The way I did it, it will make great little pancakes with sugar free syrup, too!!
Wow, quick and easy…tasty too…just enough. Cooked in micro and them put in toaster…love…thank you.
jUST WONDERING…WHAT SIZE RAMEKIN IS BEST TO USE WHEN MAKING THIS RECIPE? (SORRY FOR ALL CAPS…)
This is a game changer. Love it.
Doubled the almond flour & oil, omitted the baking powder
Baked in oven, pretty good
Love it, i followed exact ingredients! I will make my OWN bread from now on..thank you!
I didn’t have baking powder but i added salt and it was good! Also used clarified butter for the oil.
ALSO IF YOU USE An XTRA LARGE EGG YOU NEED TO ADD MORE ALMOND FLOUR TO MATCH THE CONSISTENCY IN THE VIDE. I microwaved and will also try baking in my toaster oven.
i think i’ll experiment with herbs like rosemary and or thyme next time.
