Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), preferably using the convection mode. Line a 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pan with a piece of parchment paper. Slightly oil the paper to make sure the bread doesn't stick to the pan. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add all the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. 
  • Add the liquid ingredients. The order doesn't matter. Combine with a spatula or a spoon, then use your hands to knead the dough for about 1-2 minutes. The batter is very moist at first, getting drier as you go. After 2 minutes, it should come together easily to form a dough. If it is still sticky, add more husk, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, knead for 30 seconds, and see how it goes. The dough will always be a bit moist, but it shouldn't stick to your hands at all. If so, the egg-free keto bread will be too moist when baked. 
  • Set aside 10 minutes to let the fiber fully absorb the liquid. 
  • Shape the dough as you want your bread to look when baked. You surely want a lovely round bun on top of your loaf. So shape a cylinder of dough that matches the pan's length, but DO NOT press or flatten the top of your loaf, or you will end up with a denser/tighter crumb. Keep the top's shape round. It's what will create a light and soft bread loaf with holes in the crumb.
  • Slightly rub your hand with water and massage the bread's surface to remove holes and create a smooth surface. 
  • Bake for 50-55 minutes in the oven's center. The fan-bake mode is the best. 
  • After 50 minutes, prick the center of the loaf with a skewer to test. If it comes out clean, it is cooked. If not, it means the bread is still wet inside. Cover the loaf pan with a piece of foil, reduce the heat to 350°F (180°C), and keep baking for 20-30 minutes until cooked in the middle. 
  • Lift the bread out of the pan using the parchment paper.
  • Fully cool down on a rack before slicing – at least 3 hours for best results.
  • Slice into 16 slices. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze up to 3 months in airtight containers.

Notes

Freeze: slice the bread into 16 slices and freeze in a freezer plastic bag or an airtight container. It is better to defrost on the bench-top the day before, then toast until hot and crispy. 
Fridge: store well up to 5 days in the fridge in an airtight container or freezer bag. I recommend you toast the bread slice for a few minutes in the toaster before serving.
Flours swap: don’t replace any flour in this recipe for perfect results.
Bread color: if your bread turns purple, it will be because of the psyllium husk brand you choose. For some reason, a few husk brands turn blue/purple when baked. It doesn’t impact the flavor or quality of your bread. Use a different brand to avoid this next time. Make sure you are using a blanched almond meal and gold flax meal for a lighter bread color.
Psyllium husk: Don’t use Metamucil fiber supplement in this recipe. It’s not the same product as whole psyllium husk fiber. Metamucil is a husk powder that is not suitable for baking keto bread. It will turn the bread dry, purple, or blue.
Be patient: knead the dough for 2 minutes. It might seem long, but it’s what it takes to make the perfect keto bread loaf. Think of all the calories you are burning kneading that dough! Then, always set aside the dough for 10 minutes to let the fiber absorb the moisture.
Shape it as Play-Doh: Do you remember playing with Play-Doh as a kid? It’s the same for low-carb dough. Shape it as you want to see it when baked. Low-carb baking loaves don’t expand much when baking. If you want your loaf like mine with a lovely top bun, don’t press/flatten the dough! Shape it with that lovely round top “belly”. It will slightly rise while baking, but not as much, so if you flatten the top or press it firmly, your bread will end up dense and dry with no holes in the crumbs.
Repeat – it takes time and practice. So don’t give up, your bread will get more beautiful each time.
Oven Mode: I use the fan-forced (convection) mode. If you have to use conventional mode, I recommend increasing the temperature by 25°F (15°C). The baking time should be the same, but it might take a few more minutes.

What’s A Vegan Eggless Keto Bread?

I am so excited to share this vegan keto bread loaf recipe with you. Believe me or not, I am testing and eating all the easy keto recipes on this blog. This bread creation has been the most challenging so far as I really wanted to create a keto vegan bread, meaning with no eggs or dairy.

I tested at least 10 low-carb vegan bread recipe options over the past 2 months until I finally came out with the perfect recipe. So here you go, but first, let me answer some keto diet facts about psyllium husk, one of the main ingredients of this recipe.

Is Psyllium Husk Keto-friendly?

Psyllium husk, also known as whole psyllium husk is a dietary fiber that contains very few carbs since over 80% of the carbs in psyllium husk are fiber not absorbed by your intestine. Because of this, psyllium husk is an excellent addition to your keto diet because it’s a no-carb food that adds fiber to your diet.

Fibers are an essential part of the low-carb keto diet to keep your gut healthy and your stomach full. Read my Keto Flour Guide to learn how to choose the best flour for your keto diet!

Psyllium Husk, a Sugar-Free Fiber Supplement

Research on psyllium husk has shown that it lowers blood cholesterol and blood glucose levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It makes psyllium husk a great sugar-free fiber supplement for people with diabetes. Therefore, adding psyllium husk into your keto bread will help you stabilize your blood sugar level too.

Please don’t swap or replace any flour, it’s an egg-free keto bread, and any change will impact the result of the recipe:

Keto bread loaf
  • Almond Flour – I used ultra-fine blanched almond flour. Don’t use unblanched flour. It would make the bread heavier, too dense. Almond flour is a great keto-friendly flour.
  • Coconut Flour – make sure you are using fresh coconut flour with no lumps.
  • Psyllium husk – use whole psyllium husk, not husk powder supplements that are loaded with artificial ingredients and generally contain less than 50% husk.
  • Flaxseed Meal – use ground flaxseed meal. Feel free to use the gold flaxseed meal or dark flaxseed meal. The gold one creates a lighter bread color.
  • Lukewarm Water – make sure the water is at around 100°F (40°C), it will activate the fiber of the flour faster, and the texture will come out lighter and softer.
  • Salt
  • Apple Cider Vinegar – or any vinegar. This will activate the baking powder, don’t skip it.
  • Baking Powder – that is the leavening ingredient. Don’t replace it.

Serving Suggestions

There are many ways to serve your vegan keto bread. Here are a few of my favorite ways to use these delicious slices.

  • Cinnamon toast – toast the slices in the toaster, spread a tablespoon of butter, and sprinkle erythritol, cinnamon, and fresh keto fruits like raspberries.
  • Jam toast – spread some homemade chia seed jam on top.
  • French toast – use this bread as a base in my keto french toast recipe.
  • Breakfast poached eggs – toast bread, add mashed avocado, grilled bacon, and poached eggs.
  • Sandwich – add any cheese, keto vegetables, and cured meat for a delicious keto sandwich.

This simple eggless keto bread has everything you could expect from a bread loaf:

  • A relatively dark outside brown color with a perfect crust that glows and shines.
  • The crumb or the inside of the loaf is tender, not too tight, not dry at all, and has holes.
  • It holds really well, the center doesn’t deflate, and you can easily slice it in thin slices like regular bread.

    I made this bread and it is the best Keto bread I have tried! Do you think if I add an egg it will turn out a bit more airy? I don’t mind it will not be vegan

    • Thanks so much for the lovely feedback. I would probably add 1 whipped egg white if what you are looking for is a airy bread. Howver it may make the batter very moist and not hold as well. I would rather recommend you try my keto bread rolls recipe first, much more airy 🙂 Enjoy ! XOXO Carine.

  2. 5 stars
    best low carb bread – I have tried several recipes and this one is definitely THE BEST and easy to make! Thank you for sharing this.

    • Thank YOU ! I am so excited to read this comment and that you found my blog. Can’t wait to read your next review. XOXO Carine.

  3. Hi there, I just noticed that the measurements do not correspond with the measurements in brackets (10.2 oz is around 1.5 cups but the recipie says to use2.5 cups. Can you clarify which metrics I should be using? Thanks

    • The recipe is correct it use 2 1/2 cup of almond meal which is 300 g or 300 g in oz is well 10.5 ounce. 1 cup doesn’t always weight 10.2 oz, this depends on the flour you use. Almond flour is lighter than almond meal. Use the cups if you are unsure or grams I am 100% sure of those measurement I make this recipe weekly either in grams or cups and always work. I use google to convert grams to oz as I don’t use oz in my country. Enjoy the bread. XOXO Carine.

  4. Hi…i love that your bread and other recipes are largely egg free.Itried this and the keto bread rolls to compare. The texture of the bread rolls is what i was looking for in the loaf but found it too dense and moist. Have you tried using yeast as the flours have enough carbs for it to prove? A fluffy bread that crisps on toasting would be the ultimate keto bread. Thank you so much for the effort you put in on our behalf.

    • Yeast won’t react without sugar so it will only add flavor not texture in this loaf recipe. I recommend you either add 1 teaspoon of guar gum or toast the bread slices in a toaster if you love a crispier bread. Enjoy, XOXO Carine.

    It’s perfect, thanks for sharing this recipe, I’ve cocked it a couple of time.
    I have a vegan friend and once I used slices like a pizza crust, it was worked perfect.

    Bye!

    Hi Carine! i tried to bake this wonderful bread twice, and the taste is great but im not sure about the texture of it, it has no air in it at all and its moist from the inside…i baked it a little longer then what you suggested….any tips?
    thank you!!!!!

    • That is a gluten free keto bread it means that it is made of 100% gluten free flour. Gluten free flours doesn’t raise and that is why most gluten free keto bread use eggs to give some air but then it taste like eggs so I don’t like it. If you want to keep some air in this particular recipe you have to knead the dough gently don’t press the bread at all into the loaf leave it round thick and soft. Try to add slightly more husk if it is too moist, you may use a thinner husk that don’t absorb the liquid as well as mine. Otherwise try my keto bread rolls recipe it is much easier to bake in small size to start ! Enjoy the blog recipes ! XOXO Carine.

  7. Hi Carine I wanna try this receipt. But I don’t have flax meal, may I skip this material? Or anything to replace? Thanks as always❤️

    • Hello, unfortunately you can’t skip or the bread won’t hold at all. However you can swap flaxmeal by the same amount of ground chia seed, it is more expensive that is why I love flaxmeal. Enjoy the recipe! XOXO Carine.

      • 5 stars
        I made this recipe today. Couldn’t believe it’s so much alike the normal bread I used to. As your suggestion, i used the ground chia seed. It does taste so goooood! I’m so happy and enjoy your blog recipe every single day! Next challenge is cinnamon cake or muffin. Have a nice day, Carine! ????

        • Thank you SO much! You are the best follower EVER. Talk to you soon on the muffin post them ! Can’t wait to hear your feedback on those, Have a lovely day too, Carine.

    My bread was bit moist. I think it was the almond meal I used. It was delicious and not a huge issue cos I usually toast it. If I grind the almond meal and let it air a bit, am thinking it might make it flourlike. Can’t bring myself to buy almond flour. ???? what do you think? Love your recipes.

    • Yes almond flour absorb liquid better and won’t let the bread moist as you mentioned. I recommend you buy some for next time, you will love it ! Enjoy the blog recipes and thanks for being here with me ! XOXO Carine.

    This recipe turned out wonderful! It’s the first Low Carb Egg-Free bread recipe I’ve tried that was delicious! I mixed it in the food processor as another commenter suggested. Super easy. Will definitely make again.

  10. I tried this recipe and the 400 degree temperature was too high. The bread came out dark and hard. Also, 2 cups of water was not enough, I had to add more water. What did I do wrong?

    • It seems that you added too much flours which explain why you need to add more water and the dry bread. The temperature is correct and if your bread come out dry it is for the same reason I mention before, you may add too much flours. I recommend following the recipe in gram for precision. Those flours are highly water absorbent as they contains 10 to 40 times more fiber than regular wheat flour. You must be precise to avoid a dry dough. Also, you may bake at 375F if you believe that your oven overheat the bread and add a piece of foil on top of the bread after 15 minutes baking to avoid the top to burn. The color can change based on the flaxmeal and husk you use. ome husk even turn blue-purple when baked but it won’t impact the flavor. I hope all those tips help you achieve a delicious bread next time. Thanks again for trying my recipes! I look forward for your next feedback! Carine.

  11. This looks like a very easy/simple recipe. I have read all of the comments, and while I see questions about substituting the flours, I didn’t see anything about subbing anything for the flaxseed. I prefer to not use flax and was wondering if there is another ingredient which could be used or should I simply use more psyllium powder? (Or perhaps use psyllium HUSK for the flaxseed?

    • If you really don’t like flaxseed the best replacement will be chia seed meal. I wouldn’t increase husk or the bread will be too chewy. Enjoy !XOXO Carine

    Just made this simple Keto bread. I needed to cook for a little longer but the crust is fab & texture the best & closest to wheat bread thst I’ve tried. Love it. Thsnk you.

    • Thank you so much! I am so glad you love the bread loaf. You may also want to try my keto bread rolls recipe next time, they also taste like wholewheat bread (without the carbs f course :)) Enjoy the keto recipes on the blog, XOXO Carine.

  13. HelloCarine
    Myself Neha. I tried making this bread. It is very tasty. I have one query. I normally bake in Microwave. So temperature setting there is 160/320/640/800. So to get perfectly baked loaf how much time do i have to keep in microwave and at what temperature.

    • Thank you so much for trying my recipes ! You can share a picture of your recipe with me on Instagram. I look at all of them and reshare some in my story to show all my followers what you made. Come follow me on Instagram to share your lovely bread photo with me! XOXO Carine.

    Love, love, love this bread!
    Thank you soooo much!
    Thank you to the person that suggested using the food processor to mix dry, then blend wet ingredients. It worked great (only kneeded for 30 sec)! Nice fluffy bread. I used baking soda by mistake and it still tasted great.

  17. Hello! I just made this bread for the first time and it came out looking great! It had a nice rounded top. But as it sat and cooled, it began to deflate! Help! Did I do something wrong? Is there a way I can try to prevent that next time? Thanks for any tips!

    • I am not sure why it deflated maybe you didn’t cook for long enough or there was too much air in your dough. Try knead more and bake in the same loaf pan size. Enjoy the recipe. XOXO Carine.

      • Okay, thanks! I will try that. I’ve made it twice now and that happened, so hopefully the extra kneading will help! It also has been moist the whole time and a bit dense. It doesn’t look light and airy like yours. The first time I used whole husks and the second time I used the husk powder, but the both turned out the same….

    • I did not try another flour in this recipe so I am unsure. Usually oat flour or sunflower seed flour works well as a 1:1 replacement in recipe calling for almond flour. But don’t replace almond by coconut flour. Coconut flour contains 4 times more fiber and it will dry out the bread if used in same quantity. XOXO Carine.

  18. I did the keto bread yesterday but it turn out so dense. Followed exactly per yr recipe. What cld be the problem?

    • 5 stars
      Dear Carine,
      I made this bread today. It tastes good. It’s a little dense but I’m thinking I was to rough on it when I was kneading it. I also added a pkg of yeast. The house smells awesome. Thanks for the recipe will make this again.

      • Thanks for the beautiful message! You are right, the recipe has no gluten so if you over knead or press the dough too firmly on the loaf pan it get dense. The more you make this bread the better it get anytime! You may also want to try my keto bread rolls recipe, very similar and it will make your house smell like a French bakery too ! Enjoy the recipe. XOXO Carine.

    • This bread recipe has no gluten so it won’t raise very well especially if you over knead the dough it will end up dense. Did you change any ingredients? To start baking low carb bread it might be easier for you to give a try at my keto bread rolls recipe first. Let me know, XOXO Carine.
