What’s The Deal With All The Keto Breads?

Bread is a tough one for a lot of people to give up who can tolerate gluten. Unfortunately, it’s the gluten that’s developed in traditional bread baking that gives bread that perfect chewy interior to crusty exterior combination. It can be difficult to imitate, so many people on the keto diet have preferences for what they want in their bread substitutions. The more durability you want your keto bread to have, the more egg and melted cheese is what you’ll need mixed into the dough. If you are looking for the soft and pillowy texture of bread rolls, make a keto bread using melted butter. These same rules can apply to pizza crusts. You’ll often find egg in keto pizza crusts as the main ingredient for durability.
