Almond flour is a favorite low-carb flour substitute for baking because it is easy to make great tasting baked goods with it. The recipe below is a good example of how almond flour can be used in place of wheat flour to make a bread that is surprisingly satisfying and, well, bread-like. It can’t be simply swapped in in place of wheat flour—it just won’t act the same in a recipe—but with a few simple tweaks, you can make a really nice bread using it. Get the recipe here.

The secret at work here is separating the eggs and whipping the whites to soft peaks. This adds airy volume to the batter. Combined with a hefty dose of baking powder, this gives the bread plenty of lift. Unlike the dense, dry loaves you may have tried in the past, this low-carb keto bread is a joy to eat.

If you’re looking to make these last, stick them in the freezer and thaw/toast whenever you want a bagel. Get the full recipe here.
