LOW CARB MUG BREAD OPTIONS


These are a wonderful treat for us low carb folks!
 They are filling and add variety to the usual low carb options.






Now days, these breads have many different variations and go by different names...mug bread...keto muffin...muffin-in-a-minute, etc. They are usually microwaved but can be baked as well (of course that will take longer but it will still work). Depending on the recipe you choose, they may replace English muffins, toast, sandwich bread, cake, etc. I recommend that you make both kinds and decide what uses you prefer them for. It's also great to have different recipes in case you are out of a certain ingredient...coconut flour, almond flour or flax!

This is a recipe I originally got from DitchTheCarbs. (Head over there if you want even more flavors to try)
 I'm including it on my blog because of course it has become one of my go-to recipes and I want you to know about it :)


LOW CARB MUG BREAD RECIPE - COCONUT FLOUR VERSION (2 NET CARBS)

This version is moist and is great for pig in a blanket because it is more flexible.

2 tsp coconut flour (scroll down for almond flour version)
A pinch of baking soda
A pinch of salt
1 egg
2 Tbsp shredded cheddar

Add egg to a large mug or ramekin (greased or sprayed) & whisk it up.
Add coconut flour and dry ingredients..whisk it all together.
Stir in cheese.
Microwave 1 minute.

Slice muffin into 2 wheels.
I then fried a couple sausages in butter, split open the muffin and fried that in the grease! 


MMMMMmmmm! :D

**I added black pepper/red pepper sprinkles and garlic granules.
Green onions, cooked bacon, ham, or sausage bits, etc can also be used in the filling.



ALMOND FLOUR VERSION
This version is larger, more dry like a bread, and has a more bubbly texture.   Great for a toast replacement with your mashed fried eggs!

3 Tbsp almond flour (the finer the better..Bob's Red Mill is a good one)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 egg
1 tbsp butter or coconut oil melted
pinch salt
Seasonings

Whisk butter & egg first
Then whisk in dry ingredients.
Microwave in a MUG for 90 seconds.
Cut into 3 or 4 slices and fry in butter or coconut oil.

It is similar to the coconut flour one I like but this one isn't boingy lol. 
Both are yummy. I put seasonings like garlic powder, cayenne etc in it..or a tbsp of shredded cheese w sausage bits if I feel like it. or just put a sausage link in and fold..pig in blanket style as shown above.

These work as a breakfast sandwich bread or lunch bread! Give them a try..they will certainly get you by if you are craving things that require bread! Another AMAZING recipe is the WHEAT BELLY FLAX WRAP which I share my favorite use of! :)

Be sure to check out my favorite LOW CARB COLESLAW recipe!
It's perfect for your 4th of July meal or any day!

 Sharing what works for me and loving on others.
I pray you will be blessed!
 



Hey there! :)
God has created so many neat things for our health and pleasure.
I'm so glad you've come to learn more about them!

I'm Diana,  homeschooling mama of seven.  While it is sometimes chaotic (like quite often, haha), I love bringing my children into my world whether it be out in the garden or by my side learning to crochet.  Life is full of blessings for everyone.  We can be more JOYFUL people when we intentionally look for them and praise God for the beauty in the simple things He gives us every day!

Truly pure essential oils are one of those blessings...tools the Lord has given us for our good and to help us in so many ways! Young Living has been used mightily in our lives! Oregano oil was the first game-changer for me. It worked so well I never went back to my old toxic ways.  Every person in my family has been impacted for the better and I want to spread that message so others can experience the blessing too!  

Besides UN-adulterated essential oils, YL also has loads of oil-infused toxin-free products to help break the chains from personal care products that have caused many to have hormonal issues, increased cancer risk, depression, behavioral issues, etc.

I love having FRUGAL natural alternatives to keep my family well and am here to help, edify, and empower others <3
Have fun looking around! Check out the blog articles, click the website learning links at that top, and take advantage of our free classes (sent directly to your email for fast viewing at any time.)
