Keto Bread Recipe With Active Yeast

Submitted by Louise in Montreal

"This is the best ketogenic hamburger bread that I have done so far. I recommend it to those who have to avoid gluten in their diet; it uses almond flour and egg whites."

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 6 hamburger bun
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1 1⁄4 cups almond flour
• 5 tablespoons psyllium husks
• 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
• 1⁄4 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons cider vinegar
• 1 cup boiling water
• 3 egg whites

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
3. Bring water to near boil and add vinegar.
4. In a mixing device (I use my Kenwood Chef mixing machine but a mixer with a dough beater attachment should do it), pour the dry ingredients and mix at a medium-low speed; gradually add the hot water and vinegar solution.
5. Add each egg white, one at a time until the paste is back to an elastic texture before adding the next egg white. Do not mix too much, the dough should be soft and homogenous.
6. On a cooking sheet covered with parchemin paper, divide the dough in 6 equal parts and with your hands moistened with water, form your 6 hamburger buns. You could also use oven-proof muffin molds if you want.
7. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 50 min or until there is a hollow sound after tapping the bottom of the bun.
8. Let the buns cool before handling, cutting or tasting them. This recipe should be used only to make hamburger buns type of bread, not the slicing bread type, as the oven heat is important to cook the inside as well as the outside of the buns. Enjoy!
