Frequently Asked Questions

What is Keto bread made of?

Keto bread usually has a base of almond flour and/or coconut flour. Then eggs, baking powder, milk and an oil are added to form the bread. For this gluten free Italian Keto bread I also added spices, parmesan cheese and olive oil to give the bread a delicious flavor.

My bread may be a bit more yellow than yours because I used farm fresh duck eggs for this recipe. Duck eggs tend to have a darker yolk than chicken eggs and will give your bread a darker color.

How do I store my Keto bread?

This gluten free Italian keto bread is best stored in the refrigerator. Since there are no preservatives this bread won't last for more than a couple of days on your countertop before it goes bad. Especially if the temperature is warm or if moisture gets into the container you are storing the bread in.

Can I freeze this gluten free Italian keto bread?

Yes! This bread recipe freezes really well. I love to make extra loaves to freeze and then defrost when I want them to go with dinner or for lunches. I wrap the bread in tinfoil and then store it in a freezer safe bag. You could also store this bread in a freezer safe container.

Top Tip

You may be wondering why a gluten free recipe website is giving you a keto or low carb recipe. I don't eat a low carb or keto diet personally, but I have found that keto breads hold together really well, have a nice texture and are delicious. This makes them a great alternative to buying expensive gluten free bread at the grocery store.

Gluten Free Bagels

This easy recipe for gluten free bagels are boiled and then baked to get the perfect texture. These homemade bagels are made with yeast and I used everything seasoning on top. They are perfect for breakfast or a snack with cream cheese spread on them.

Buying gluten free bagels can get expensive! I found some of the brands upset my gut and others were too dry for me. So I started testing making my own. I think what is key for this gluten free version is boiling them in molasses water.

Ingredients

Warm Water
Active Dry Yeast
Honey
Gluten Free Flour
Sea Salt
Unsalted Butter
Baking Soda
Molasses
Egg

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a small bowl add the warm water and honey. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let stand for 5-10 minutes until the mixture starts to get foamy on top.

In the bowl of your stand mixer beat together the gluten free flour, salt and butter. You can use your dough hook or the beater at this point. Add the yeast mixture and blend until a dough forms.

Divide the dough into five even balls. Form each ball into a bagel shape and place on the baking sheet.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the baking soda and molasses to the boiling water.

Carefully lower 1-2 bagels at a time into the boiling water. Boil on one side for 3 minutes and then flip and boil on the other side for 1 minute. Carefully remove them from the pot and place them on the baking sheet.

In a small bowl beat the egg until frothy. Brush each bagel with egg and then sprinkle with salt or everything bagel seasoning.

Bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes. The bagels will be golden brown when they are done.

Let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.?

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I make with gluten free bagels?

I'm a big fan of eating my gluten free bagels with whipped cream cheese on them. But, I also love a good bagel sandwich with mayonnaise, lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar cheese and turkey. For a breakfast version I fry eggs, melt cheese on them and spread mayonnaise on my bagel for a breakfast sandwich.

Can I freeze my gluten free bagels?

Yes! Bagels can be frozen in a freezer safe container or bags. I like to freeze them individually so I can get one out at a time as I want them. Although, this recipe makes 5 bagels and they go pretty quickly at our house. You may want to double this recipe so you have bagels to freeze for later.

Do I need to use eggs on my bagels?

In my opinion, yes you should use an egg or egg substitute on your gluten free bagels. The egg will help brown and have a nice outer layer like a bagel you would purchase in the store.

Eggs also add moisture to the outside of the bagel, if you can't use eggs you need to substitute with either flax seed meal and water or applesauce. You could use a combination of the two, but it will alter the flavor and texture some.
