Keto bread bowl tips

Keto Bread Bowl Recipe - Ketofocus (27)

One of the biggest challenges with making keto bread is trying to get it to rise and produce airy, fluffy bread. Low carb, gluten free breads typically don’t use gluten based flours or yeast which help bread dough to rise. But I have some tricks you can implement to produce a tasty, airy bread roll.

In this recipe, we utilize two leavening agents – baking powder and baking soda. The baking soda needs an acidic component to produce it’s leavening effect. That is where the buttermilk or yogurt come in. Both of these ingredients are acidic and will react with the baking soda to produce carbon dioxide bubbles which will puff up the bread as it bakes.

Another tip to help your keto bread bowl rolls rise is to throw a handful of ice cubes in the oven while the rolls are baking. The ice cubes will rapidly melt creating steam. Steam in the oven will also help you keto dough rise.

How to mix keto bread dough

The best way to mix up this keto bread dough is to use a food processor. Since this is a fathead dough, the best way to incorporate the cheese with the rest of the ingredients is with an electric tool – like a food processor or mixer. I prefer the food processor because just a few seconds on the pulse button and the ingredients are combined. You can use an electric mixer but it’s a little messy because the ingredients can fly out of the bowl sometimes.

Is buttermilk keto approved?

I love to cook with buttermilk. It is tangy and serves as an acid to react with baking soda in order to help baked goods rise. The tangy flavor will cover up the cheese and egg flavor from fathead keto breads.

Some may say that buttermilk has a lot of carbohydrates in it, it’s really not that much when you break it down per serving. In this recipe for keto bread bowls, we use 1/4 cup of buttermilk. This attributes to 3 net carbs for the entire recipe.

Keto approved yogurt

Using a low carb yogurt is an option in this recipe if you don’t want to use buttermilk. Yogurt is tangy and acidic. It will give the bread bowl some flavor and help it rise during baking.

Look for a Greek yogurt with the lowest carb count. You are only using 1/4 cup of yogurt for the entire roll recipe, so it won’t push your carb limit too much. Check out my recipe for Keto Bread Rolls to learn my favorite brands of keto yogurts.
