Rosemary bread
4 eggs- (4 carbs)
1 ½ cups almond flour- (16 carbs)
1 head smoked or roasted garlic, (optional) ( 2 carbs)
2 tsp baking powder
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary( dried ok)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
Beat eggs.add almond flour. chop garlic ,add to mix.chop rosemary in food processor. Add to mix add rest of ingredients and pour into a well greased loaf pan and bake 350 in preheated oven for 35 minutes.
22 carbs including garlic for the entire loaf! Individual slice sizes will determine carbs per serving
-
I dont have a food processor, what is a good substitute?
-
Do you have the carb count per slice on this?
-
Just rough chop the rosemary.I am baking today for company so i will ask Dougie to do a carb count. I am also working on a recipe for Sherripie for snickerdoodles!
-
22 carbs including garlic for the entire loaf! Individual slice sizes will determine carbs per serving, 20 without the garlic
-
22 carbs is correct for the whole loaf.I use a 9 inch loaf pan and usually cut it in 1/2 inch slices so i get 18 servings. So its alittle over 1 carb per serving.

I am just curious, but could you substitute flax meal for the almond flour? It would be much less carbs, but it may not taste as good.
-
Ditto on Kathy's question. ::)
-
No i would not use flax by itself.You can cut the almond flour carbs in half using soy protien powder(0 carbs) it will be alittle dryer but butter or jam will solve that. ;)

This is a wonderful bread toasted for your turkey sandwiches. The rosemary goes so well with poultry ;)
-
So many recipes so little time! :D
-
Mine turned out a bit dry. Did I cook it too long? Can I add oil to the batter?
Melting butter on top took care of the dryness but I'd like to use it for sandwiches, too.
-
It should be moist.Probably overcooked.You can add more oil or cheese for moisture too. ;)

Hi Andrea! :)
Baking low carb requires careful attention to bake temps and times.
Most tend to over-bake and dry out very easily.
Since ovens vary, it pays to experiment and make note of your results.
I did that for my first 6 months living FTS until I got comfortable with it.
Now, I only mess up once and a while (usually when distracted). ::)

I make the one minute muffin practically every day - have combined and one on one ratio of ground flax seed and almond flour (meal) and 1/4 the amount of coconut flour. It comes out beautifully. Now, if I make this bread, can I use this mixture? I have noticed that the coconut flour tends to try things out, that's why the one on one on 1/4 ratio. Any thoughts?
-
You can try,report back ;)
-
I still haven't tried this out - maybe sometime in near future. Crazy at work - crazy at home - no time lately to do much. Trying to get our house ready to start listing to sell in the spring. work work work - and to play..... it will all be worth it, though. I just know it will...

New beginnings are always wonderful my friend! :)

I can't wait for this new beginning... I am really tired of working long daily hours and so much, too much expected of one person. We are down to a skeleton crew and everyone is wearing two or three hats. Your body doesn't have time to get to a really good relaxed state of being over the weekend, if you know what I mean. Even with exercise and eating right.....Then, so many people bring in junk food - like today it's poonchkies - I don't know how to spell it. but its the donuts filled with fillings and Polish heritage. I didn't have one. I am getting very very serious about no more sugar in my diet. I went off of it for a while and gained weight. So this is a leaf turning moment.
-
I should clarify when I said I 'went off of it for a while... this meant I went off my diet for a while.
-
Just jump back on the wagon and you will feel great! I am usually overworked so I understand what it does to energy levels ;)

Went on our two week fishing trip to Kentucky and absolutely vegged out! Came back with a lovely tan. The crappie were quite turned on as KY had that snow and then additional cold snap. So, I am figuring they are probably turning on right now - lol and bummer. Although, we did get enough of them for a few meals.

I am a fishing fool! I work and fish thats my life!!!lol
