This is a low carb bread recipe I found on the following website: Instant Bread

I made this yesterday when I was desperate for breakfast (ran out of muffins!):



The recipe for the bread:

I had those with a little jam and cream whilst still warm, yum. My batteries ran flat at that point so no photo but then today I sliced the remainder in half horizontally and made toasties with tomato slices, cooked bacon and cheese:



Now the almond taste with the toasty was a little different but still nice, I think perhaps some herbs and parmesean cheese added to the bread when cooking might fix that? I think for sweet, coconut would be a nice addition.

I'm not actually a bread person myself so no not yet. He also has another bread recipe that looks similar but uses cream cheese, I will try that one next as it might be useful for Garry.

I liked it best with jam and cream myself but I have always loved scones so that's probably why. Oh and when toasting the edges toast quick so keep an eye on them.

Keep note though that this one is calorie dense.

Hehe don't apologise!

Okay, give me a few minutes to catch up then I will turn her off and chuck my old hard drive in and have a looksie.

The almond meal.

Just a typical loaf tin I guess, it is not big. I am an idiot, I have ceramic loaf pans, should use them. I am not a fan of non stick unless it is silicone, not a fan of aluminum tins either which is probably what they are because they are old.

They leech into your food.

Sorry I missed this, but yes I am pretty sure it is. The problem however is that because of it's high omega 3 content, it goes rancid very easily especially after it has been ground so not really the greatest to use for cooking. I personally avoid using it.
