Our Bread Mix

Our signature bread & cake mix is 100% keto friendly, very low net carb, high fibre, gluten free and just the thing to make it easier to follow a healthy diet for the whole family.

When cooking gluten free and very low carb there’s many challenges in creating a bread that doesn’t crumble, is not too heavy or can pass the fussy kids taste test! It definitely takes practice and thankfully there are hundreds of great tips and free recipes available online.

The addition of the whisked egg whites to these bread recipes can make all the difference between a heavy loaf and one that can rise and has more of a bread-like taste and feel. To make a fluffier lighter bread simply adjust the formulation yourself to use less flour mix and more egg whites, simple.

Vegetarians: The eggs may be replaced by whisking together the following for every large egg:

• 1 1/2 teaspoons tapioca starch
• 1 1/2 teaspoons potato starch
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon (a big pinch) xanthan gum
• 3 tablespoons water

Let rest for 10 minutes until the mixture starts to thicken, then whisk until it appears lighter; the mixture will increase in volume a bit. The idea is to trap air bubbles to help with leavening, the same way eggs do.

Each 330gm pack contains enough mix for 2 large loafs or 14 buns.

Low Carb Keto Bread Mix Contents:

Organic Coconut Flour, Psyllium Seed Flour and Organic Flaxseed (nothing else!)

Notes:

• Of the 10 grams of carbohydrates per serving approximately 75% is in the form of insoluble and soluble fiber, so yes, the net carbs is very, very low.
• We have chosen not to use Xanthan Gum in our Low Carb Keto bread mix because although it helps to substitute the binding properties of gluten it may result in wind and bloating in some. However it may be added as desired for greater binding properties and to reduce / replace the requirement for eggs.
• We prefer to use Flaxseed uncrushed, because only in their original seed form do they maintain freshness.
