This recipe makes a perfect keto loaf bread for sandwiches or breakfast toast. โค
I like to call it โgluten free protein breadโ because itโs packed full of all the good stuff, without any of the junk โ including 12 grams of protein for 2 slices, at just 1.7 net carbs per thick slice and 85% healthy fats.
The end result: an amazingly delicious low carb grilled cheese!
That was THE BEST keto sandwich Iโve ever had. ๐
I have to say though, I ate three other slices of this low carb sliced bread as is โ and loved it plain too, hot or cold.
Itโs so good, not grainy or course like other low carb breads, and not spongy or eggy like a lot of keto bread recipes.
Itโs not as dense either, although itโs quite firm (holds together well) but also soft & fluffy.
You know Iโm not much of a cook and definitely not a recipe developer! So this is the SAME recipe I have repeated multiple times that started out as keto waffles turned into keto blueberry muffins turned into a keto banana walnut bread recipe. ๐
It was that โbetter than the real thingโ low carb banana bread that gave me the idea for this PLAIN keto sliced bread recipe. ๐
Just like those recipes, the STAR ingredient in this bread is a beautiful nut butter. This time a delicious macadamia, cashew, coconut butter blend: Perfect Keto Nut Butter.

I fell in love with the Perfect Keto Nut Butter travel packs, so I bought two jars to enjoy at home! Unfortunately they no longer offer the single-serve squeeze packs, but they did just come out with three new flavored nut butters that are delicious: so rich & sweet!
This original nut butter is NOT sweet, so it makes a perfect keto loaf bread for sandwiches or breakfast toast.
You can use a different nut butter, but this recipe works best with a super soft nut like macadamia nut butter or pili nut butter.
The Perfect Keto nut butter is, wellโฆ Perfect for this recipe. ๐
๐ Keto Loaf Bread Recipe
This is smaller than a store bought loaf of bread and while itโs not heavy, grainy or spongy like most low carb bread recipes, itโs quite filling!
You could experiment to make a larger loaf if you like, youโll just need to adjust the cooking times accordingly.
As is, with the ingredients and amounts below that I used, and cut into 15 thick bread slices, hereโs how the macros work out for this bread recipe:
15 servings
196 calories per slice
88 grams of fat per slice
6 grams of protein per slice
1.7 net carbs per slice
You can use the Free MyFitnessPal Recipe Calculator to easily log your servings with the ingredients/brands YOU use, and the number of servings you slice it into โ which may be different than mine.
๐ Ingredients:
- 1 8oz Jar Perfect Keto Nut Butter* room temperature
- 8 Large Eggs
- 4 TBSP Melted Coconut Oil
- 1/2 Cup Almond Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- optional: parmesan and/or Everything seasoning for a savory crust

Youโll need a loaf-sized silicone mold, or youโll want to grease a bread pan liberally. I havenโt tried other pans like a glass dish or metal baking pan, so you may find you have to adjust the baking times if you donโt use the same size silicone mold I used โ or if you change the recipe in any way.
This silicone loaf mold is PERFECT for this exact recipe, as it is above, and the entire loaf of bread pops right out with NO sticking.
Youโll want a sharp bread knife. I had one in this pretty knife set I got on Amazon. I love how the handles are shaped for easy handling, and how colorful it is. ๐
This beautiful knife set makes a GREAT gift, btw!;)
๐ Recipe Instructions
It helps if your eggs are not TOO cold, to prevent the melted butter or coconut oil from clumping on you. You definitely want your nut butter to be room temperature too.
I usually whisk my eggs first and set them aside on the counter while preparing everything else.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Stir together the first three ingredients (eggs, nut butter & oil/butter) until smooth. Add the other ingredients. Mix well. I find it easy enough to mix the ingredients by hand with a large spoon, without using a hand mixer.
Place your silicone loaf mold on a baking sheet, and pour the batter into the mold.
Make a โfoil tentโ to cover the loaf and leave room for rising, and bake it covered the first half hour.
โฑ Bake at 325 degrees 50-60 minutes until golden brown.
Optional: Make a blend of parmesan and Everything Seasoning to create a savory top crust, and sprinkle that on the top of the loaf 10-15 minutes before it finishes baking. You want it to โstickโ to the bread but not scorch or burn.
Depending on your oven, the dish you use and the size of loaf, cooking time may vary. Youโll know itโs done when itโs golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
* pictured below is my banana bread loaf, made almost exactly the same way just with different ingredients.
Let it cool completely before slicing.
If for some reason itโs not done in the middle when you do slice it, cover it and put it back in the oven on 325 degrees again and keep an eye on it.
Use a sharp bread knife to cut 15 thick & fluffy slices from your loaf.
This loaf bread is IDEAL for making traditional french toast for breakfast, thatโs guilt free and keto friendly!
The first thing I did though, was make a very buttery and very cheesy KETO GRLLED CHEESE sandwich. ๐
The grilled cheese had to be my favorite way to use this bread, but like I said earlierโฆ it was even great as a โplain cold sliceโ straight out of the refrigerator.
Store it in the refrigerator after it cools completely since itโs made with all natural ingredients.
Enjoy this beautiful Keto Loaf Bread Recipe!
Iโve been promising you this one for awhile, since I first made it last Spring, so my apologies for taking so long to get it to you. ๐

I donโt know if youโve ever made your own macadamia nut butter (with just nuts alone, not including the cashews and MCT and coconut butter etc in this Perfect Keto nut butter) but I have โ and it takes A LOT of macadamia nuts to make a substantial amount of butter. ๐
Here are the Perfect Keto Nut Butter ingredients by the way. Itโs super clean and keto friendly with high quality ingredients:

I love their bars too, and a lot of people have mentioned the price of those. ALL bars are expensive in my book (even the ones on store shelves) so I definitely watch for the deals.
But I will say that the Perfect Keto bars actually satisfy me and hold me over WAY better than other bars, Iโm guessing due to the collagen and mct plus the 11 grams of protein etc. But they actually make for a good meal replacement, which makes them a good value. Especially when I get them during sales like this one. ๐
Enjoy ๐
If you already have the original Perfect Keto nut butter, whip up a loaf of this keto bread and make some DIVINE french toast this weekend!
Take advantage of the savings with this discount code (LOWCARBTRAVELER). If youโve been wanting to try the new Perfect Keto flavored nut butters or their bars, or need to restock on collagen powder or mct oil powder, itโs a great opportunity to do that!

p.s. ๐ซ I do NOT use anything with exogenous ketones so skip those products at Perfect Keto, including their โbaseโ which has those too.
I recently did a Perfect Keto Q&A Video, specifically about what I use (and donโt use!) and how I use their collagen powder & MCT oil:

Lynn, it looks good! Iโm thinking of trying this with my favorite organic natural peanut butter (just peanuts, nothing added). I know peanuts, being legumes, are hotly debated in keto circles, so I wonder how my keto friends would like it. Pinning.
Hi Jean ๐ You can certainly use the nut butter of your choice, or even make your own. The key will be to enter it into a recipe calculator so you can add your own ingredients to see how the carb count & macros play out.
Enjoy!
p.s. lol at the hot debates ๐ I know what you mean! For me personally, if it does not knock me out of ketosis or cause any other issues or symptoms, itโs fine.
Everyone is different, so I use a blood glucose/ketone meter to test foods so I can add/eliminate and enjoy the widest variety of whole foods possible while maintaining nutritional ketosis. ๐ *cheers*
