# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, ensuring an overhang on the long sides. This preparation is crucial for easy removal of your Zero Carb Yogurt Bread: Smart Keto Bread.
02 -
In a high-speed blender, combine 8 large Eggs, 4 oz Full-Fat Cream Cheese (softened), and 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter (melted). Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure no lumps remain.
03 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup Unflavored Egg White Protein Powder, 3 tbsp Psyllium Husk Powder, 2 tsp Baking Powder, 1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum, 1 tsp Fine Sea Salt, 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder, and a pinch of Black Pepper. Ensure all dry ingredients are well combined.
04 -
Pour the blended wet ingredient mixture from the blender into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly with a spatula or spoon until just combined. The batter for your Zero Carb Yogurt Bread: Smart Keto Bread will be quite thick.
05 -
Stir in 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar and 1 tsp Dried Chives into the batter. The vinegar will react with the baking powder, providing the necessary lift for a light and airy texture in your Zero Carb Yogurt Bread: Smart Keto Bread.
06 -
Pour the prepared batter into the lined loaf pan, smoothing the top with your spatula. Bake for 35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Avoid opening the oven door frequently.
07 -
Allow the Zero Carb Yogurt Bread: Smart Keto Bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before carefully lifting it out using the parchment paper overhang. Transfer to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing for the best texture.
# Notes:
01 -
Psyllium husk absorbs a lot of liquid; if your batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon of water or unsweetened almond milk.
02 -
Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. It also freezes well, sliced, for longer storage.
03 -
For a different flavor profile, you can swap the dried chives for dried dill, onion powder, or a mix of Italian herbs.
04 -
This versatile bread is excellent toasted with butter, as a base for avocado toast, or alongside a hearty keto soup or stew.
