Discover a wholesome twist on classic bread with this Low Carb Polenta Bread recipe! Perfect for ketogenic and gluten-free diets, this bread swaps traditional cornmeal for a nutrient-packed blend of almond and coconut flours, complemented by Parmesan cheese for a savory touch. Ground flaxseed boosts fiber, while eggs and almond milk ensure a moist, tender texture. With a prep time of just 10 minutes and no yeast required, this easy-to-make loaf promises golden brown perfection in every slice. Ideal for sandwiches, toast, or as a hearty side, this polenta-inspired bread is a delicious way to enjoy comfort food while staying true to your low-carb lifestyle.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, ground flaxseed, and Parmesan cheese. Mix these dry ingredients together until well incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter (or coconut oil), and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir until everything is well combined and a thick batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve. This low carb polenta bread is perfect for sandwiches or as a side with your favorite dishes.
