This Zero Carb Yogurt Bread recipe is a keto-friendly, low-carb alternative to traditional bread, perfect for those following a low-carb or ketogenic diet. Made with eggs, full-fat Greek yogurt, and optional almond flour, this bread is moist, fluffy, and rich in protein with virtually no carbs. It uses baking powder and xanthan gum or psyllium husk powder for texture and structure, making it a perfect gluten-free and grain-free option to enjoy bread without the guilt.

Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • ½ cup full-fat Greek yogurt (unsweetened, plain)
  • ¼ cup melted butter or coconut oil

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (aluminum-free preferred)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum or psyllium husk powder (for texture and structure)
  • Optional: ½ cup finely ground almond flour (adds structure without raising carbs significantly)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep the Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it well to ensure easy removal of the bread after baking.
  2. Whisk the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, vigorously whisk together the eggs, full-fat Greek yogurt, and melted butter or coconut oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy, creating a well-blended base for the batter.
  3. Add the Dry Ingredients: Add the baking powder, salt, and xanthan gum or psyllium husk powder into the wet mixture. If you choose to use almond flour, include it at this stage. Stir everything thoroughly until the batter is fully combined and starts to thicken slightly.
  4. Pour and Smooth the Batter: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula to evenly smooth the surface to ensure uniform baking and a nice shape.
  5. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 45 minutes. The bread is ready when the top turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating it is fully baked.
  6. Cool Completely: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing. Cooling fully is important to achieve the best texture and prevent the bread from crumbling.

Notes

  • The optional almond flour helps improve the bread’s structure but adds a small amount of carbs.
  • Xanthan gum or psyllium husk powder is essential for stability and binding since this recipe doesn’t use traditional flour.
  • Ensure the Greek yogurt is plain and unsweetened to keep the carb count low.
  • Use aluminum-free baking powder to avoid any metallic taste.
  • Store the bread wrapped tightly in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • Slicing the bread when completely cooled prevents it from crumbling.
