Low-Carb Buttermilk Bread (A B M)

mersaydees's Note:

This is a based on a recipe in my Cuisinart Convection Bread Maker Recipe Booklet using the low-carb cycle. This is so delicious and healthy! Love it! The default instructions are for the 2 pound large loaf; I've listed quantities for the 1 1/2 pound medium loaf in parens. I cannot vouch that this recipe will work in a bread machine without the low-carb cycle.

My Cuisinart bread maker recipe book had a couple typos for this recipe. It turned out much better after finding this recipe. I can't find barley flour in our town, so I substituted rye flour and it turned out good.
Thanks for posting!

Okay, the first time I made this I forgot the salt....so I made it again and it turned out very good. I've been doing a low carb lifestyle and I was missing bread. I can toast thin slice of this to go with my eggs in the morning and it make a good open face tuna salad sandwich. Also, I made this in my bread machine using the dough cycle...I have a quirk about my loaves looking like loaves. Thanks for posting!
