As some here know I'm in ketosis and that means I tightly restrict my intake of carbs. One of the things I can't eat is bread and I didn't get to be a great baker by not loving it. There are substitutes but they just don't taste the same but they can be used for some things, like pancakes, and they work fine for that. Recently I discovered that King Arthur Flour has a Keto Flour. I checked the nutritional info and 4 grams of net carbs per 1/4 cup. That acceptable if I go easy. So I made a loaf of bread this Saturday. Today was the first day I was abt to do this, but without toast to put them on I haven't had an over easy egg in 1 3/4 years.
So today I cooked up some sausage, and made one piece of toast, buttered it and made my eggs. It was soooo good! The bread? It's bland since there's so little wheat in it the runny yolk made all the difference. But it's more like bread than any other keto loaf I've made to date. It would make a good sandwich, french toast, by itself it's tasteless as compared to full wheat flour bread.
The cost? 16ozs of the flour costs $10 (more online) and most of that bag is used for one loaf so it's not an inexpensive bread. But did I mention that it's the most like real bread of any keto loaf I've ever made? I got 15 slices out of it and there are 14 servings of flour in the loaf. Each serving has 4 grams of net carbs so each slice is under 4 grams of carbs. Until something better comes along this bread is a keeper. As costly as it is I sliced it up and wrapped a few slices per package and put them in the freezer. I'll take a package out as it's needed.

Glad you found a good alternative !!
