How to Make Zero Carb Yogurt Bread
1. Preheat & Prepare
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a 4×4-inch pan with parchment paper or grease well.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients
In a bowl, whisk eggs and avocado oil until frothy. If using erythritol, whisk it in until dissolved. Stir in the Greek yogurt until smooth.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt.
4. Make the Batter
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
5. Bake
Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50–55 minutes, until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Cool & Slice
Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
