Low Carb Sandwich Bread

Ingredients:

1 Tbsp. yeast
⅔ cup ground flax meal
½ cup oat fiber

1 cup vital wheat gluten

2 Tbsp. softened butter
4 Tbsp. artificial sweetener
1 tsp. salt (or bouillon)
½ tsp. xanthum gum
1 tsp. honey or sugar (only to feed the yeast)
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup milk, room temperature


Add them all to your (smaller size) bread machine. Many machines prefer it if you load the ingredients into it in this order. Then turn the machine on and let it run through its process. I used a "Medium" baking setting.

For the artificial sweetener, Swerve is the popular brand. I used half stevia (because I have a lot), half erythritol (because the flavor is more neutral); I loved the results.

It came out quite good. Cuts nicely, has a good crumb. Toasts well. I will be making this again.

With 16 slices to the loaf, it's only one net gram of carbs per slice (4 gross, minus 3 grams fiber).

And it's pretty good!

Variation (Version 2.0:

1 Tbsp. yeast

½ cup ground flax meal

½ cup oat fiber

½ cup almond flour

¾ cup vital wheat gluten

2 Tbsp. softened butter, warm

4 Tbsp. artificial sweetener

1 tsp. chicken bouillon or concentrate

½ tsp. xanthum gum

1 tsp. (honey or) sugar (to feed the yeast)

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1 cup milk, warmed

The bigger bread machine kneads this more, the loaf rises more. Make adjustments.

Version 3.0:

2 tsp yeast

½ cup ground flax meal

½ cup oat fiber

½ cup almond flour

¾ cup vital wheat gluten
¼ cup ground coconut.

½ tsp. xanthum gum

2 Tbsp. olive oil

4 Tbsp. artificial sweetener (stevia)

1 tsp. chicken bouillon or concentrate

1 tsp. sugar (to feed the yeast)

⅔ cup milk, warmed. Add slowly; don't feel obligated to use it all.

Update: I've put away the (smaller size) bread machine, and gotten out the big, 2-pound bread machine. It fills it up. Seems to knead better, which causes better raising.
