Posted by Love For Healthy Food on

Soul Bread is a gluten-free and flour-free bread with only 1 g net carbs. Topped with healthy fats (grass-fed butter, olive oil, cream cheese), Soul Bread has a perfect keto ratio (high fat, moderate protein, and super low carb).

This bread recipe was originally invented by Gloria Koch, aka Souls Song. But later was modified by many low carbers, by adding different spices and other ingredients.

Amazing texture and the taste of soul bread decided that we have to present this recipe here. If you haven’t before, now is the time to try this tasty loaf.

SOUL BREAD RECIPE

The recipe makes 16 servings (slices). Nutritional value per slice: 195 Calories, 15 g Fat, 1 g Carbs, 13 g Protein.

Ingredients that you need:

  • 12 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup grass-fed butter, melted
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream (or half and half)
  • 2 ½ Tsp. baking powder
  • 1 Tsp. xanthan gum
  • 1 2/3 cups unflavored isolate protein powder
  • 1/3 Tsp. baking soda
  • ½ Tsp. salt
  • ¼ Tsp. cream of tartar
  • 2 drops liquid stevia (optional), added to the wet ingredients.

Preparation:

At first, preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).

Then soften the cream cheese. You can use a microwave (45 seconds to 1 minute) for this. Melt butter and add to cream cheese. Add in olive oil, heavy whipping cream, and eggs. Mix well using a hand mixer or stick blender.

Add baking powder and xanthan gum to an empty salt shaker and shake over the liquid mixture. Mix well after each shake to avoid lumps.

Then add protein powder, baking soda, salt and cream of tartar to a flour sifter. Sift over the wet ingredients. Stir by hand just until mixed. (Do not use a mixer or blender). Do not over stir or the bread will become dense.

Pour into the greased pan (9 x 5 inches) or silicone mold and bake at 325°F for 45 minutes, or until golden brown. The bread may be dry on top but adding melted butter helps if eating it right away. Once cool, wrap in plastic to store.

NOTE: Not every brand of protein powder works well. Some types of protein powder make a slightly dense loaf of Soul Bread. Nature’s Best ISOPURE and Hoosier Hill Farm isolate whey proteins perform great, produce a lofty rise and taste amazing.
