Grain Free Jalapeno Cheese Bread || Low Carb

by hungryelephant

Jalapeno and cheese is one of the most delicious combos out there – from jalapeno poppers to a spicy cheese dip – you just can’t go wrong! That’s why I decided to try my hand at a grain free jalapeno cheese bread and boy – it did NOT disappoint.

This low carb cheese bread recipe is based off my grain free bread recipe using almond flour and arrowroot flour. To be honest, it’s one of the best grain & gluten free bread I have made! 

 

 

Now, like I mentioned in the base recipe – this is probably not for people doing strict keto. The arrowroot is higher in carbs but if it fits your macros – go for it! This bread is a based off of two recipes I spotted when I was in the testing phase. The first one is Dr. Bergs “Healthiest Bread in the World”. The second is from Jess at PaleoGrubs. I highly recommend checking both those recipes out!

As Dr. Berg has mentioned, arrowroot is low-glycemic and can be used in moderation. I do understand if serious keto-ers do not want to make this recipe though.

This bread is so delicious that I made TWO batches – one I turned into baguettes!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl whisk together the arrowroot, almond flour, quick yeast, salt, xanthan gum and inulin (or sugar).
  2. Separate the eggs and add the egg whites to the dry mixture.
  3. Pour in the olive oil, garlic and water.
  4. Mix thoroughly until you have a thick dough. Make sure it's all incorporated.
  5. Add in the cheese and jalapenos and mix thoroughly again.
  6. Transfer to a piece of parchment paper.
  7. Wet your hands and form one circular loaf with the dough, smoothing down the top.
  8. Brush the top with the egg yolks.
  9. Place the dough ball into a large mixing bowl, Dutch oven or casserole dish and cover with a towel or cling wrap.
  10. Place in a warm area to rise for about 45 minutes to an hour.


There are two ways to bake this:

In a dutch oven or casserole dish: bake covered for 30 minutes at 400°F / 200°C. Take lid off after the half hour and bake until browned.. (Approx xx minutes)

Take out both breads and cool on a rack until near room temp.

This looks incredible , can I make the dough shape into baguettes and freeze the dough to be baked later ? I want to make this for my friend who is an ICU nurse

Hi! I am viewing on a laptop and you cant stop on the recipe. The screen is jumping up and down above and below so it cant be viewed. Just thought I’d let you know. I really want to make this bread but cant view the recipe. Thanks
