Izzet's Bread

[joagain]

I halfed the recipe then spread out on a baking sheet (13  x 9) baked for 15 minuites . I got 8 slices out of it I guess I could have got more if I wanted small peices of bread . Then I toasted me a peice and it was very good .Thank you izzet I have been missing my toast with me eggs . My eggs have 0 carbs so I guess this bread has 0 carbs .

Jo, there are .6 carbs per 1/2 tsp. in baking powder.  If you halved the recipe I think that is 1.8 for the whole recipe.  Just remember portion control.  I also made this and enjoyed having "toast" to dunk in my eggs.  Enjoy!

Shihtzumom1 wouldnt it be just .6 for the baking powder what else has carbs ? I know I am going to limit myself to 1 peice for breakfast . I do have to watch how much of the free stuff I eat .

Jo, I think this is right.  There was 1 tablespoon of baking powder in Izzet's recipe.  I checked on-line and there are approx. 3 tsp. in 1 tblsp.  Baking powder has .6 per 1/2 tsp. so that would be x 6 = 3.60 for the baking powder for the full recipe and you made half so that would be 1.8.  OMG you have to be a mathematician to do this.  So divide the 1.8 by 8 slices and you get .225 per slice.  Not really much but still not 0 and all of these little carbs do add up.  As far as portion control goes, we don't want to overdo on any 1 thing or we are getting back into bad old habits.  Hope this helps.

Way to go Jo...so glad you enjoyed it...it's not my bread just a recipe I found but since I posted it I guess I can claim it. lol   You could also add spices to it to change the flavor and you can also add flavoring like banana and other flavors. 

I found these non-alcoholic flavorings on amazon and went to their site to see the nutritional value.  I will post a separate post about these.

That's great Jo that he is trying new things.  My husband has been very good about eating most of the food that I eat.  He really enjoyed the turnip fries that I made last night.

Did you use parmesan on them? I made some last week with parmesan and they were yummy!

Thank you! I'm showing this to my husband. For him, the hardest part of FTS is BREAD. He loves it and misses it like a long, long friend.

Rena, I make it on a cookie sheet now so it is the thickness of a piece of bread.

I make it on a large cookie sheet so it spreads out more and is the perfect thickness for a thin slice of bread.

Wow Owensmath 77 lbs!!  WTG!!

Thanks for the tips on the cookie sheet. We'll definitely have to try this. Bread is what Rick misses most. I can take it or leave. Chocolate is another story! Thank God for sugar-free chocolate!
