Following several requests, I decided that my next video recipe should be this Grain-Free Sunflower Bread from my App. It's light, savoury and tastes just like wholegrain sunflower or rye bread. It's very low in carbs and perfect for the ketogenic diet. In fact, this recipe is so good that I decided to include it in my KetoDiet Cookbook.

There are a few important points you should always keep in mind when making this bread:

weigh the dry ingredients (cup measurements are not precise enough),

make sure you use psyllium husk powder (whole husks won't work),

be quick when mixing the wet and dry ingredients together and don't over-process the dough (or it will become clumpy and rubbery).

I admit that this bread may be a little tricky to get right at first but once you know how to do it, it becomes easy. For this reason I've created a video tutorial. I hope you like it!

How To Fluffy Keto Bread

Do not use whole psyllium husks - use a blender or coffee grinder and process whole psyllium husks until fine.

The reason you shouldn't use only whole eggs is that the buns wouldn't rise with so many egg yolks in. Don't waste the egg yolks - use them for making Home-made Mayo, Easy Hollandaise Sauce, Frozen Fat Bomb, Smoothies, Keto Coffee or Lemon Curd.

Don't waste the 2 leftover egg yolks - use them for making Home-made Mayo, Easy Hollandaise Sauce, Frozen Fat Bomb, Smoothies, Keto Coffee or Lemon Curd

Martina Slajerova Creator of KetoDietApp.com I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight. That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food. More posts by Martina Slajerova Martina Slajerova
