Shop-bought bread is often full of ingredients you wouldn’t expect, such as preservatives, emulsifiers and treatment agents. For that reason – and the amazing taste and smell of freshly baked bread! – it’s always better to make your own.
Made with almond flour and sesame flour, this high-protein bread recipe is also low in carbohydrates (at just 1.5g a slice!) and wheat free making it a great option for keto and gluten free diets. Some homemade breads don’t have the stability of shop-bought but this recipe holds up in sandwiches, in the toaster and works with a range of toppings.

150g almond flour
100g sesame flour
1 tbsp xanthan gum*
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
250ml warm water
50g butter, room temperature
*Xanthan gum is a binding agent that stops the bread from crumbling, this means it slices like traditional white bread. It can be found in most supermarkets and health food shops in the free from homebaking aisle.
