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.

    745 Thoughts On Eggless Vegan Keto Bread Loaf with Almond Flour
    1 6 7 8 9 10 18
    • The amount of sodium per slice is in the bread is in the low range of sodium for a bread, it contains 360 mg sodium serve while store bought bread goes from 380 mg to 700 mg. Also, the percentage is regarding your % daily sodium recommended intake for a regular healthy person, not on low-sodium diet or with any health issue. However, if you watch sodium closely, simply remove salt in any bread recipe, the recipe will still work. Enjoy, XOXO Carine

    I have made this keto bread several times. It is delicious. I would like to know if this recipe can be made into multiple loaves without making changes to ingredient amounts. I have tried but I am getting an air pocket under the top crust. Don’t know what is causing this.Thank you for any information you can provide.

    • If you divide the dough into smaller loaf you will have to decrease the raising agent too. Since the whole dough is lighter (in weight), it will raise super fast in the oven creating the hole you mention. Try to half the baking powder in the recipe. Enjoy the blog! XOXO Carine

  2. I keep getting a flying crust. A hole across the top of the loaf just under the crust. Any idea why?? Thank you

    • I think you need to let the bread set. This happened to me a couple times when I quickly put it in the oven after I mixed the ingredients. I eould let it sit for more than 10 minutes. Like 30 minutes minimum. The moisture absorbs well better with more sitting time

    • Are you living at high altitude? I would decrease baking agent by half and make sure you don’t open the oven door too often while baking. Enjoy, XOXO Carine

  3. Hello! I’ve made this bread a couple of times already, and it has been great! But the last 2 times I’ve been trying to make it but the batter turns out so dry and not moist at all. Almost like I’m doing something wrong with the ingredients. But I’m so sure I am not. In the video it looks like you put more water in than the 2 cups? It feels like I’m losing my mind haha not being able to find out what I’m doing wrong when I’ve been doing it right the last times! Could u help me please?

    • If it was working before but not now you may have change some of your ingredients brands, since the recipe stayed unchanged. Also, what you see on the video amis exactly the amount mentioned in the recipe card. Did you change husk or almond flour brand lately? Let me know! Carine

  4. Oh and having ingredients in grans would be super helpful. I know how touchy these types of recipes can be. Although I think I’m getting close.

    • All my recipes are provided in cups and grams. Simply click on ‘Metric’ before the list of ingredients and your recipe will be converted into grams in one click. Enjoy, XOXO Carine

    This worked pretty well. I don’t have convection though. Skewer came out clean, but bottom half was a bit wet. I sliced and froze. Then, I’d thaw and toast. Toasting helped a lot, but it would be nice to know the internal temp that’s reached when it’s perfectly cooked. Then, I could set my probe thermometer to that temp and know it’s done. It’s very similar ingredients to a mix my nutritionist sells. It’s the closest I’ve found and am hoping I can cook it better next time. It’s been a good recipe to get a solid dose of fiber. I’ve been enjoying it toasted with mashed avocado and scrambled eggs. It can be a bit squishy in the middle though. But, it’s a nice change as I’ve been grain free for over a year and rarely make subs. Toasting helps the wetness in the lower half of the slice, but to toast the sides well enough, the the edges get black. Maybe it’s my toaster? Anyway, thanks for posting this. It’s been very helpful.

    • Maybe toast on a lower heat to avoid the edge to brown. Thanks for the lovely feedback, Enjoy, XOXO Carine

    I just made your egg less keto bread. It came out amazing. I will taste it later when I break my fast. I followed the recipe to the letter. Thank you so much, now I can enjoy toast and butter.

    • Psyllium husk powder often turns bread chewy, too moist and even blue/purple in color. That is the reason why I don’t recommend to use it. You can try, but the result will come different. Enjoy the keto recipes on the blog, XOXO Carine

      • Thanks for that answer, I was having the same problem, my bread was coming out moist and purple. So I need whole psyllium husk, which is what I thought I had.

  7. Hi Carine
    I am vegetarian so when I saw your recipe without eggs I was really very happy and I made my bread with the exact measurement you gave in your recipe. The only change is my oven because I have small oven toaster and I don’t have fan mode. My bread turns out ugly as it’s burn from the top and when I took it out it comes down from the center. I am really very upset. Can you please tell me what I did wrong

    • Unfortunately you can’t bake this bread in a toaster oven at all. That is the reason why your bread burnt on top, toaster doesn’t circulate heat all around the oven baking thick bread in the middle as regular fan-forced oven do. You can try to bake the recipe in small buns instead that will probably bake in your oven or try my keto bread roll recipe, it may be suitable for toaster oven more. Enjoy, XOXO Carine

    I have made dozens of grain-free bread recipes and this one is our favorite…no eggs and a very sandwich-able bread with low carbs to boot. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe! One other thing…I add cinnamon, stevia and raisins and it is now raisin bread or toast which is awesome too.

  9. Regarding the extra virgin olive oil, would it be ok to use just regular olive oil? Also flax meal, I have flax seed would I be able to crush them or would it be advisable to buy actual meal. Thanks!

    • Sure any oil! But you need flaxseed meal don’t crush by yourself it will be coarse and it won’t absorb moisture properly resulting in a wet bread. Enjoy, XOXO Carine

    Thank you, at last, a Keto bread recipe that does not taste and smell if eggs! Your egg free Keto rolls are great too. Unfortunately I did not like your ‘best’ Keto egg free bread that contains chia seeds, the flavour was good but I did not like the texture. I will be using this recipe a lot though.

    • I am glad you find one of my egg free bread recipe that match your taste! The other one use more coconut flour it might be the reason you didn’t enjoy it as much. I also have a lovely keto bread roll recipe for you to try next next. Enjoy the recipes on the bog, XOXO Carine

    I made this bread yesterday forthe first time and it came out perfect. Thanks so much for an egg free recipe!!!

  12. Hi I just came across your recipe and it looks fantastic. Do you happen to know the saturated fat content per serving?
    Thank you!

  13. 5 stars
    Thank you for your bread recipe! I’ve made this several times now. My first loaf was an odd shade of blue/purple/gray but have changed by brand of psyllium fibre to the Now brand and my subsequent loafs are nicely brown. I have also reduced the amount of flax to 2 tablespoons and I find the texture better for my taste. With the reduced flax, I’ve also reduced the water. The loaf still holds together beautifully and slices perfectly but I find it less ‘gummy’ with the reduced flax. Thanks again!

    • I love Now food brand too, it make the bread just perfect in taste and no weird color! Thanks for sharing your tip too I am sure many people will give it a go, Take care, Enjoy the recipes on the blog, XOXO Carine

    Came out so good! I am blown away! Made my bf on an elimination diet for months so happy! Thank you!!!! Great directions.

  15. Hi! This is a great recipe. I have a question, is it possible to remove coconut flour from the recipe and just increase the ammounts of other flours in it? I tried couple different coconut flours, all taste way too sweet for me, and everything i make with it tastes sweet also.

    • Coconut flour absorb 4 times more than other flours so if you want to remove it you will have to add way more of almond flour. The result can be a heavy, dense and wet bread too. Enjoy the recipe, XOXO Carine

  16. Hi Carine,

    I tried to bake this bread and followed the measurements but after baking for 55 minutes it still wasn’t cooked so I baked it again for 20 minutes twice and still it is not fully cooked and the dough it still bit wet on the inside.
    Any idea what went wrong? I used fan oven at 200celcius

    • Did you use whole husk? Did you weight ingredients or measure in cup ? If it is wet it means you are missing fiber so it is either because you miss coconut flour or your husk is in powder form, not whole and can’t absorb as well the moisture or a last option is that you used almond meal instead of almond flour. Let me know, Happy to help, XOXO Carine

  17. Hi! I would love to try this recipe. 1) is there any alternative to the Vinegar as I am intolerant to them?
    2) I have never used the husks before how would.i tell the different between whole husks and the powder?
    Thanks

    • You can replace vinegar by lemon juice. Whole husk is coarse, powder is fine. It is always written on the packaging if what yu are buying is whole or powder. Enjoy the bread recipe, XOXO Carine
