With this super quick and easy 90 second microwave bread you won’t miss the bread in your low carb keto journey. It’s great for slathering on butter and jam, make sandwiches, dunk in soups and much more!
This is an easy bread to make and tastes good with everything. I find most of the low carb, keto breads in the market today are either expensive or has wheat in it which I try to avoid. Many of these bread are low in net carbs and can be called Keto, but if you’re staying away from gluten or trying to avoid it they may not be the best option for you.
I was so excited to discover this 90 second microwave keto low carb bread. I was finally able to make my favorite cheese sandwiches, butter and jam sandwiches or dunk in soups like my keto pumpkin soup.
Ingredients you need

How To Make Keto Bread In The Microwave
I use an Anchor 4-inch glass ramekin as it makes the perfect size and round. Use a square ramekin for a bread shaped for sandwiches.
Start by oiling your ramekin. This helps the bread not stick to the pan.
Add the melted butter, an egg, almond flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk thoroughly with a fork to combine.
Place the ramekin in the microwave and cook it for 90 seconds. Wait for a few seconds and loosen it up with a knife. It will easily come off the bowl.
I cut my bread in half and toast it in a toaster to make it crispy. Alternatively, toast the bread on the stove with some butter until it’s nice and crispy.
My favorite way to eat this super easy 90 second keto bread is with butter and sugar free keto strawberry chia jam.
Can you make this keto bread without almond flour?
Yes, you can use about 1.5 tablespoons of coconut flour. Not too much as coconut flour is super absorbent and will make the bread dry. I prefer the almond flour version though.
Help! Why does my bread tastes bitter?
Make sure you use baking powder, and not baking soda and it’s not expired. Use aluminum free baking powder for best results.
What can I substitute butter with?
You can substitute melted butter with light olive oil, avocado oil or melted coconut oil.
Why is my bread tastes bland?
Add a pinch of salt if you are using unsalted butter. Some grated parmesan cheese, a pinch of oregano, black pepper will enhance the taste.
