I made this gluten and grain free Paleo keto sandwich bread recipe for my husband who was craving a sandwich. It was really light and fluffy for being gluten free bread. We don’t eat a lot of Paleo baked goods at our house but it is really fun to hold a piece of bread around some meat and veggies. This would be fun to toast for breakfast with some homemade chia jam. It is made with cashew meal which gives it a sweet taste with a light texture.
Keto Sandwich Bread Texture Similar to Typical Sandwich Bread
This keto sandwich bread kind of reminded me of the so called healthy whole wheat bread that I used to get in the health food store. It has the texture of sprouted Ezekiel bread which, by the way I do not think is healthy because there is still gluten no matter how long something is sprouted. Also it is impossible to sprout every kernel of wheat so the anti-nutrients will still be there. Sprouting doesn’t really impact the glycemic impact of wheat or white bread so most people just can’t withstand the blood sugar effects of eating sandwiches or toast.

Should the cashews be soaked?
Caitlin Weeks says
I bought mine at the store so I didn’t soak it. I just minimize nut consumption rather than soak. It is up to you. I really don’t know much about it.
Deitan says
I am so looking forward to trying this as it has been very frustrating lately to find lunch options for my husband to take to work. Do you think it would work alright to swap out the cashew meal for almond meal? Would the measurements stay the same? Thank you!
Caitlin Weeks says
I eat dinner type meals 3 times a day just fyi. Yes it would be the same measurement. The cashew meal is much lighter and a little sweeter that is why I used it.
Deitan says
That’s what we usually do as well, it’s just for days when he needs to be able to have something that he can easily eat while driving. That’s good to know…I haven’t dabbled in using nut flours very much yet. Thank you for your reply!

Hi,
Love you site and all of your posts.
I made this over the weekend, exactly as written, however, did sub out flax seeds for the chia seeds as I dont tolerate them well. This is the best paleo “sandwich” bread I’ve made yet. Most of the breads I’ve made for sandwiches, have a wet, dense, texture, even if they don have good flavor. They havent worked out well for sandwiches. This is the exception and we are happy to be eating BLT’s for lunch again.
Thanks!
