I am looking for some good recipes for home made bread that will go with my low carb diet. Oats? Spelt? Seeds?
I have been avoiding bread altogether for the last few months but I really miss my breakfast slice of toast with either avocado or marmite. I have tried several supermarket low carb breads but I do not like them as much as home made. If I have got to live with this for the rest of my life I may as well enjoy what I eat when I can. Can you help me please?
 
It all depends where you are at in terms of your bodies tolerance level for carbs - you can only work that out by testing your blood sugar, eating a normal sized portion of the item you want to guage the effect of, and retesting 2 hours later
We all have different levels of tolerance for carbs and these can change over time
When i was first diagnosed, 1 slice of stoneground wholemeal bread was fine but anything with white flour in it caused big spikes, over time that chaged and wholemeal wheat began to spike my sugars but rye and spelt were ok, now 20+ years on from the start, I can only safely eat 1 slice of some (not aii) of the high protein breads on sale or home made low carb 'bread' made from almond / coconut flour - you can find loads of recipes for varients of these on low carb sites.
 
I was just looking at a couple of video's of Coconut Flour bread you do in the microwave.
Going to give it a go on Sunday when I have my Full English.


TOAST!
