KETO BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Line the pan with a piece of parchment paper long enough to have a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides (this will help you lift the bread out of the pan).
• Whisk the almond flour, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks and butter.
• Beat the egg whites in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until they hold soft peaks. Stir about a third of the whipped egg whites into the almond flour mixture. Then gently fold in the remaining egg whites, being careful not to overmix (it's okay if there are some egg white streaks in the batter).
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan on a rack. Use the parchment to help lift the bread out. Slice for sandwiches or toast or eat with a slather of butter. Wrap and store at room temperature for up to 5 days.

REAL KETO RYE BREAD WITH YEAST

Steps:

• Liberally grease an 8, 9 or 10 inch wide glass or metal bowl with butter. Use the most rounded bowl that you have.
• 2. Mix together 1/2 cup warm water, sugar, ginger and yeast in a large bowl and cover the bowl with a towel. After 7-10 minutes the mixture should be frothy with small bubbles. If it is not frothy, then the yeast has died and you need to start over with new yeast.
• 3. Sift together remaining dry ingredients except the caraway seeds.
• 4. Mix together the frothy yeast mixture, 6 tablespoons melted butter and remaining 1 3/4 cup warm water.
• 5. Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir well to combine. You can use a stand mixer with a dough hook, or just a wooden spoon and some elbow grease. Mix in caraway seeds.
• 6. The dough should be sticky and rather wet, but you should be able to knead it. But if it's too dry to knead then add a little water and if it's too wet to knead you can add a little more almond flour. Knead the dough for 3 minutes.
• 7. Form the dough into a ball and place it in the greased bowl.
• 8. Preheat the oven for 2-3 minutes until it reaches 100-110 degrees. Cover the bowl with a towel and place the bowl of dough in the oven to rise for 1 hour. It will not rise very much at all. That's ok because it will rise when you bake it. Remove the bowl from the oven. Brush the top of the dough with 1/2 tablespoon melted butter.
• 9. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F and bake for 35-45 minutes. Loosely cover the bread with a piece of foil at minute 20 to keep the bread from browning too much. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 200 - 210 degrees F and a wooden skewer in the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
• 10. Cool in the bowl for 10 minutes. Then place a large cutting board on top of the bowl. Invert the bowl to release the loaf from the bowl.
• 11. Wait until fully cooled before cutting. If you can.
