Hey Foodies,
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been craving bread lately. But since I don’t want to fill up on empty carbs, I decided to combine two of my favorite things: bread and cheese into one wonderful low-carb delight.
This bread recipe is savory, full of melty cheese and naturally keto-friendly, gluten-free and grain-free. I know you’ll love it as much as I do. Before we get to the recipe, be sure to read my best tips and tricks to help make this keto almond flour bread recipe come out perfectly.
Best Tips & Tricks For This Easy Keto Bread Recipe
1. Which ingredients can be changed in this low-carb bread recipe?
There are a few simple swaps to make this bread if you don’t have all of the ingredients on hand.
First, you can easily swap the almond flour for cashew flour. I actually find it delicious and a bit sweeter than almond flour. In addition, you can sub sour cream for full-fat Greek yogurt
If you don’t have shredded cheddar cheese, another melty cheese like Colby, edam, mozzarella, or gouda will all be delicious in this keto cheese bread recipe.
2. How to make this keto cheese bread fluffy?
The best part about this loaf bread is how light, airy and fluffy it is. To ensure that your no carb bread comes out as fluffy as possible follow these steps:
- First, ensure that you thoroughly mix the wet and dry ingredients separately.
- Then, you add the wet mixture to the dry, only mix just until everything is just combined into a dough. Do not over mix, or your bread may come out dense.
- Finally, gently fold in the shredded cheese.
3. What to serve with keto almond flour bread?
Oh, the unlimited possibilities! I love to enjoy a slice of warm cheesy keto bread smothered with butter and sprinkled with smoked Maldon salt flakes for a quick snack or breakfast.Â
It’s also great in sandwiches. Have it with ham and cheese, maybe add a poached or fried egg on top. You can make a delicious keto grilled cheese with this bread (double the cheese!). Or, serve it as a breakfast sandwich with crispy bacon and eggs.
For a full meal, add slices of keto cheese bread to the side of seared salmon salad or a Greek salad. Or mop up the creamy sauce of a Keto Chicken Florentine.
4. Is Keto Cheese Bread Gluten-Free?
Yes! This savory keto almond flour bread recipe is naturally:
- Gluten-free
- Grain-free
- Keto-friendly
That wraps it up for me today, dear Foodies. It’s time to tie on your apron and start baking some delicious, fluffy low-carb bread.

I was really into making keto bread for a while. My particular recipe actually calls for apple cider vinegar. I don’t know what happened last time I tried to make this but basically the dough exploded in my face. I wish I had a video of it. It was so crazy and hilarious.
Do you think this would work in the dash for mini muffins?
It should work, but the cooking time would be different. You should start checking for doneness after 10 minutes of baking. I haven’t tried them in a muffin pan so I can’t say the exact cooking time.
This spread is amazing, so easy to make and different than other breads that you make. It goes wonderful with chili or any type of dinner. You can also make sandwiches with it and I reduce down cranberries and make it a jam and put it on top of this cheese bread. Thank you for the recipe
Is it really almost 600 calories for just one slice?
I still want to make it, but…
The calculation wasn’t right, some sort of mixup in the Nutrition Calculator and serving size. Sorry about that and thanks for pointing it out 🙂
After the recalculation, a generous slice of bread has 336kcal.
