Delicious Ways to Top Your Bread
Here are a few delicious ways to top your bread:
You can add nuts, seeds, berries, or different spices to suit your taste that day. For example, cinnamon bread is a great option.

Baking with Almond Flour
Baking with almond flour is no easy task. We’ve done the hard work and created several almond flour recipes to satisfy all your sweet and savory cravings. You can experiment with any of the recipes or this easy, Low Carb Mug Bread recipe.
Keto Microwave Bread
Making bread in the microwave may sound weird, but it is something you have to try before you dismiss it. Many people miss bread when they first start a keto diet, so the fact that this delicious keto mug bread can be made in just a few minutes can be a huge relief.
Alternative Cooking Methods
Don’t have a microwave? Not to worry! You can still make this recipe even if you don’t have a microwave. Follow the recipe the same way as described below, but instead of microwaving it, you can bake it in the oven for 20 minutes at 350 degrees F.
Making a Bigger Batch
If you want to make a larger serving of bread at one time, the cooking time will increase. A standard size mug bread will take between 70-80 seconds, but if you want to make a double batch it may take closer to two minutes in the microwave.
Coconut Flour vs. Almond Flour
A question we always get asked is if you can substitute between these two keto-friendly flours. Typically you are best served by not trying to make the swap because coconut flour is much more absorbent than almond flour. That being said, to make this recipe using coconut flour, try using just over 1/2 cup in place of the 2 cups of almond flour.
