Step aside Almond flour bread, peanut butter has come to town
Some people don’t like the taste of almond bread, some people find almonds too expensive and so on and so forth. So I figured I’d take a shot and try this peanut butter bread recipe which is a 2g net carbs per slice and uses peanut butter, a rather common and cheap ingredient. So here is my take on it. It definitely is a worthy competitor to the almond bread as well as the mug bread.
Anyway you try it and tell me what you think. Cheers!
But peanut is a legume not a nut
Not everyone is aware of this fact. It’s been masquerading as a nut for a long time. Funny how it despite not being a nut, has nut in the name, peanut. Anyway I digress, the point I’m making is that 100 grams of peanuts have about 7 grams net carbs. It’s definitely acceptable on Keto if you count your macros. I like to limit my consumption to 30 grams in a day tops. When you cook this bread using peanut butter it’s just 2 g net carbs per slice. Not a bad deal if you ask me. So go on, butter your peanut butter bread.

April 8, 2018 at 6:13 pmThis is a great recipe! Taste more like bread than the keto almond flour bread. My wife thinks it tastes similar to wheat bread. Thank you Sahil. Horns Up!

May 2, 2018 at 6:15 pmyeah sure but you’ll have a few bits of the crunch in the bread too.

May 7, 2018 at 9:02 pmI’d really love to try this bread! It looks amazing. One question though, is there a mistake in the written recipe? I interpret tbsp as tablespoon not teaspoon as stated in the video.

May 19, 2018 at 2:51 pmIs it possible to add fiber like chia seeds or psyillium powder to this recipe?

June 22, 2018 at 9:48 pmDo you have a mug version of this? I just put bread in the oven! So excited to see how it turns out. Also is it normal for the vinegar and baking powder to fizz and react together

June 23, 2018 at 2:59 amI don’t but I think you can use this for the microwave too and yes it’s normal for them to fizz together and react.

June 22, 2018 at 9:49 pmAlso same
Question as Mac I put a tbsp of vinegar was it supposed to be a tsp?
Sahil Makhija

August 22, 2018 at 12:13 pmCan you swap out the stevia powder for eyrithol powdered or granulated sugar? Sorry…very new to keto here and really want to try making this, as well as your coconut bread. Thank you so much for your videos and recipes and making this keto lifestyle “diet” much more palatable for all of us newbies! Bless you.
Sahil Makhija
August 23, 2018 at 11:15 amHey you can totally use erythritol instead but no sugar on keto.
Rhea
September 3, 2018 at 5:03 amLOL. Not regular sugar. I meant Erythritol powdered or Erythritol granulated sugar. Amazon sells both. Thanks again!

October 15, 2018 at 12:22 pmHi! May I know how much Stevia you used? Thanks!
Sahil Makhija
October 16, 2018 at 2:43 amThe stevia is optional. I must have used a small amount just for a hint of sweetness.

November 22, 2018 at 12:27 amHey Sahil, I’ve tried the Keto pb recipe above and I must say it is awesome since my son is a type 1 diabetic, we’ve learned to incorporate more of a Keto diet for everyone. However I was curious do you think I could do 1/2 c mashed ripe banana and 1/2 c pb to this to make a pb banana bread recipe? I know bananas have tons of carbs but my son loves banana bread but the amount of carbs involved in actual banana bread isn’t ideal for his condition. Being able to make this for him would be quite amazing to say the least!!! Thanks Sahil, I look forward to your expert opinion!! Rock on!!🤘🏼
Sahil Makhija
November 22, 2018 at 2:30 amHi Nicole, I do believe you get something called ‘Banana Extract’ which can be used to add that flavour to the bread without having to add any actual banana.

December 4, 2018 at 12:37 amThanks Sahil I appreciate the suggestion and will most definitely be giving that a try thanks again! Keep on rocking those recipes out they are awesome!!!

January 15, 2019 at 3:50 amHello. i tried the recipe but There’s a strange taste on my bread. Taste like something metallic thingy.
Sahil Makhija
January 16, 2019 at 3:17 amthat’s something to do with the baking soda/powder. Used too much.
