Hi Esther, nice looking recipe. I question the carb count in your coconut flour. I've never seen zero carb coconut flour. Check the label carefully and let me know what you discover.

What is the brand name of the coconut flour? I am so ordering this!

I wonder how almond flour would work in this recipe?
I use NOW brand which has 2 grams per 1/2 cup.

This bread roll would be great with hot soup!

Maybe I'll give this a try!

Hi Tony  Since coconut flour isn't measured in recipes cup for cup with other low carb flours, here is what I have found. 
If you want to sub in un-blanched almond flour, lower the egg whites in this recipe from 8 to 3 and the flour from 1/2 cup coconut to 1 1/2 cup almond.     Also when using psyllium fiber be prepared for your bread to turn a kind of purple color depending on the brand that you use     Here is a link to a recipe that is very close to this one.  She even has a video showing how she makes it.  http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/toasted-sub-sandwich-and-panini/   

Hope this helps my friend 


Esther  Great recipe!!  Thanks so much for sharing     I too would love to find that 0 carb coconut flour

Wow, TooSweet, with watching that video now I'll use my digital scale, I'm going to make that! I'll make one with almond flour AND one with coconut flour!
What would you do with all your leftover egg yolks?

[shawn116]

I would make a yummy sugar free custard or ice cream    Or you could always throw them in with some other eggs for a nice quiche or scramble.  The possibilities are endless

Hi, Shawn & Umpa!

Thanks for the link, Shawn!

Let us know how it turns out, Umpa.

In the Fall and Winter, having a low carb bread with hot soup or stew really hits the mark as a great warm-me-up!

I plan to try it very soon myself.  Having a great tasting bread is what is really standing in the way of convincing my hubs to come away from the dark side
