Zero Carb Yogurt Bread is a game-changing recipe for anyone following a low-carb or ketogenic lifestyle. Made with just a handful of wholesome ingredients—like Greek yogurt, almond flour, and eggs—this bread is soft, moist, and sliceable, with a slightly tangy flavor and a tender crumb. It’s perfect for sandwiches, toast, or simply slathered with butter. Unlike many low-carb breads that turn out dry or crumbly, this version stays moist thanks to the yogurt and bakes up beautifully golden. Whether you’re meal prepping or just craving a slice of bread without the carbs, this recipe delivers all the comfort of traditional bread with none of the guilt.
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup Greek yogurt (unsweetened, full-fat recommended)
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 3 large eggs
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Optional Add-ins:
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon dried herbs (like rosemary, thyme, or Italian seasoning)
- ¼ cup shredded cheese (for a savory twist)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a small loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2. Mix the Wet Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
- The vinegar helps activate the baking powder and gives the bread a light, airy texture.
3. Add the Dry Ingredients
- Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture.
- Stir until fully combined. The batter will be thick—this is normal.
- If using optional seasonings or cheese, fold them in now.
4. Pour and Smooth
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Use a spatula to smooth the top evenly. This helps the bread bake uniformly.
5. Bake
- Bake for 30–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- If the top browns too quickly, tent it with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
6. Cool and Slice
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and enjoy!
Tips & Variations:
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. It also freezes well—slice before freezing for easy grab-and-go portions.
- Toasting: This bread toasts beautifully! Try it with butter, avocado, or sugar-free jam.
