Priya’s Keto Sweet Bread

Last updated on January 30, 2025

The rainy weather calls for simple pleasures, like a slice of toasted bread slathered with butter. It’s moments like these that truly make life enjoyable. Today, I have a delightful recipe for you: Keto Sweet Bread.

Many people often ask me how I manage to stick to my Keto lifestyle, especially when socializing. Well, I am going to be candid today. Initially, it was very tough, as people just don’t get it, or they pretend to listen, but at the end of it, they are only hearing.

Aside from getting stuck in situations when close friends insist on giving you “just a bite,” I’ve also had to deal with the worst reactions when I decline sweets.

And you can imagine what a big crime that can be in India, where joyous occasions start and end with something sweet.

In my case, as people around me saw the change, they accepted my ‘no’ with respect. At work, they don’t offer me pizza anymore; there is no slice of cake for me; instead, I get sweet smiles, and somebody always gets me some cheese.

So if you ask me, you just need to be tough in the head and a little flexible too. I have some easy tips for you that can come in handy on this journey.

1. If you know the venue for the party, be smart and take a look at the menu beforehand.
2. If the occasion involves close friends and family, be smart and skip a meal. Hold the appetite for the evening.
3. If you are going to a social gathering like a wedding or a christening, you can either leave before the buffet is laid, play around with the food on the plate, or pick Keto-friendly items.
4. If you are going out clubbing or dancing or to a place where nobody will care to see what you’re eating, just sip on some clear soda or have some nimbu soda or lime soda, and even better, eat from home on the go.
5. In most Indian weddings where vegetarian food is being served, hog on the paneer, or try the taka tak or the pan-fried veggies. You can also pick the cucumbers and radishes from the mountains of salad you see there.
6. Ratia or yogurt can also be a lifesaver. And the tikkas—both paneer/ cottage cheese and chicken should be your best friends.
7. Avoid the punch no matter how attractive it might look, and drinking water or even salty buttermilk will do. Although very few people will serve that at an occasion. They would prefer Coke!
8. Another fact that you need to keep in mind is that Chinese is a big no. No matter how convincing the steward might sound, they add cornflour to almost everything. Even the clear soups have it.
9. Seafood is a good bet, provided it is not crumb fried; just baked and sautéed is good.
10. And as a golden rule, I never step out of the house without stevia in my pocket and sometimes coffee sachets too, and sometimes when nobody is looking, I carry my small bottle of coconut oil too. While everybody around you is getting drunk on calories and sugar-laden drinks, you can get drunk on your cup of BPC.
11. Lastly, it is your body and your life; how you want to treat it and what you want to do with it is your business. People who claim to be your well-wishers should be able to respect that, or next time when you review the clothes you need to give out, also you review your list of so-called good friends.

So coming to the recipe, it is very simple, yum, and keeps you full for a long time. Beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. I had Whey Protein in Chocolate flavor and made the bread with that. But you can use any flavor you want.

Keto Sweet Bread Recipe

Step-by-step instructions

1. Separate the egg whites and yellow. And it is beyond me why one has a different color.

2. In a blender, put the egg whites and beat till stiff peaks are formed.

3. Next add the cocoa and keep blending.

4. Add the Whey protein, Vanilla essence and sweetener and blend some more.

5. Now add the baking powder and the salt and blend for a few minutes more.

6. Lastly, add the yolks and blend for two minutes.

7. Preheat the oven for 5 to 10 minutes.

8. Pour the batter in the loaf tin, in which you have rubbed the butter already.

9. Sprinkle the chia seeds and pumpkin seeds on the top. Or you can also mix them in the batter.

10. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 35 minutes and check with a knife. If not done, bake for another fifteen minutes.

11. Allow the bread to cool completely, before you slice it and store in an airtight container.

12. Enjoy at any time, with a cup of coffee or even with your eggs.

13. You can skip the sweetener completely and make it bland or salty too. But since my Whey was chocolate flavored, so I made it sweet.
