Perfect Paleo Bread | Nurture My Gut (2024)

This Perfect Paleo bread is flavorful, soft and dense enough to hold a sandwich. This bread has been recipe tested by adults and children and they all gave it a thumbs up!

Can this bread be toasted? Absolutely, I love toasting this and serving with jam for breakfast alongside over-easy eggs.

This paleo bread can be used to make sandwiches, stuffing, bread pudding and more! I will include both a savory and sweet version below.

This recipe is a sneak peek from my Paleo Baking Fall Recipes Ebook where you can turn this wonderful bread into a Paleo Cinnamon Sage Stuffing and Paleo Bread Pudding w/Caramel Sauce.

I really wanted to share this recipe with all of you because I have had several requests for bread over the past few months. Then, Michelle Deberge at GSDF told me that her community really wanted bread too! So with both communities, wanting bread, I rose to the challenge.

In the process of making this recipe, I had so many failures! I went through several pounds of almond flour, tapioca flour, cassava flour and coconut flour until I found just the right blend.

I had to check in with Michelle regularly for support because I was pretty frustrated from so much failure. She was so encouraging saying, “You can do it! I know you will master bread! If anyone can do this, you can!” I would then run off to the market late at night after my kiddos were asleep to get more flour! Her words meant so much! Thanks Michelle!

After this loaf came out of the oven, I knew that this was the right texture and flavor I was looking for! It finally tasted like real bread! It tastes like a whole wheat bread I ate growing up! This recipe truly was a labor of love!

For those of you that don’t like to bake, there are a few paleo bread options online such as this one(has good reviews) made from nut butters or this flourless coconut bread. So if you are not a baker, I would give one of those a try.

As you know, I love to bake but I like to be efficient as possible in the kitchen. That is why I know you will love this recipe, it has only 5 minutes prep time! Yes, I am very serious, this bread only takes 5 minutes of your time and then you bake it, set the timer and wa-la, freshly baked, Perfect Paleo Bread!

What is the secret to a Perfect Paleo Bread?

The secret is using the right amount of psyllium husks powder.

Psyllium husks powder comes from the plant Plantago Ovata, a native to India, Bangladesh and Pakistan. The seeds from this plant are hydroscopic which allows them to expand and become mucilaginous. Pysllium husk powder is often used to relieve constipation or irritable bowel syndrome. It is also used in gluten free and paleo baking due to its ability to bind moisture and make breads less crumbly. (Wikipedia)

When I used too much psyllium, the bread was very dense, too little, the bread was crumbly and more like pound cake. With just the right amount of psyllium husks powder, this bread resembled a traditional whole wheat bread.

The only downside to using psyllium husks powder is that you will never get a loaf of bread to be white. I really don’t mind at all, but some kiddos can be pretty picky about how their food looks.
