A delicious and easy fertility recipe that is high fat, low carb, and gluten free! Also LCHF, Banting,, Keto, Paleo, and Clean Eating compliant!This is the first in a series of posts on Fertility Diet Friendly Recipes.  Most of these recipes are also Keto, Whole 30, Paleo, Banting, LCHF, Auto-Immune Protocol and Clean Eating Friendly!  All recipes are gluten-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, and free of all harmful and toxic ingredients.

**Whole30 Note: Although this bread is compliant with the ingredients of Whole30, Whole30 requires that for the first 30 days you don’t bake anything with compliant ingredients. It is something about the psychological aspect of the program. So, if you’re in your first 30 days, don’t let me be the one who gets you in trouble!

Keto Bread for Fertility

This High-Fat bread is a saving grace when you are on a gluten free diet but need a heavy hitting breakfast that is pre-prepared. It adheres to these diets: Keto, LCHF, Paleo, Banting, and Clean-Eating. And, of course, FERTILITY. This is especially great for women with PCOS who need to stay extra low-carb!

Whether you have it for a to-go breakfast or have it as an afternoon snack it is a great way to make sure you are getting your organic pasture raised eggs every day, even when you don’t have time to scramble them up in the morning!

This is also a very, very, simple bread to make  It packs a punch with each slice having  a solid 261 calories per serving.  Although you can use it for sandwiches, burgers, etc., there are so many calories in a single slice that I prefer it as a stand-alone snack or breakfast.  When I’ve tried to eat it with other meals I am too full to eat anything else.

This bread is a great way to help keep you on track to meet your fertility macros! If you haven’t read my blog post on the ideal macros for fertility, according to recent research, go check it out!

Clean eating high-fat gluten free bread! Keto, paleo, whole 30 compliant

Look at this gorgeous slice!

When I have this for a to-go breakfast,  I follow up within an hour or 2 with a fertility smoothie packed with berries, greens, and more proteins and fats, so its easy to make it until lunch.

It looks beautiful, and slices even better. Personally, I think it tastes like chocolate cake, but that is probably because I’ve been off of sugar for months and months!

To be clear, this recipe is not my own, I did not originate it- I just altered it!  It is slightly different from recipes I found at two blogs- Free the Animal and Cooking Caveman.  They both did the heavy lifting of finding ingredients that worked.

Why should you eat a low-carb, high-protein and high-fat bread?

If you’ve landed on this website you probably already know how harmful simple white carbohyrates can be for health and fertility. Unfortunately, so many other foods can be harmful for fertility as well that at some point you start to feel like you can’t eat anything.

First of all – that simply isn’t true! While trying to conceive (both times) I ate a diet rich in variety of fats, proteins, and yes, even carbs! I just picked them very carefully. Read my post here that describes my full fertility diet.

Ultimately, you will have to tailor a perfect fertility diet to YOU and your needs. Your diagnoses- both western and eastern – can change what you should be eating. But, I’ve never heard of a single diagnosis or fertility issue where you were supposed to eat white carbs!

The easiest keto bread recipe ever. Super yummy, made with almond butter, coconut butter, and eggs! #keto #paleo #lowcarb

This Keto Bread slices so nicely πŸ™‚

In fact, the Harvard Nurses Study was the first ground breaking work to show that diets lower in simple carbohydrates lessen the rates of ovulatory infertility. They even wrote a book about it- you can get it at Amazon here: The Fertility Diet. 

However, newer research shows that it isn’t enough to just avoid simple carbohydrates, and that controlling the total amount of carbohydrates you eat can boost fertility.

This research, by Dr. Jeffrey Russell, in NJ, shows that once women consume 30% or more of their diet as protein, and 40% or less as carbohydrates, they had FOUR TIMES the pregnancy success rates of those who ate more carbs and less protein. 

All of this is just to convince you that you need more protein and fat and less carbs. 

But, I know you want bread. Heck, I want bread. Enter, this recipe.

Why is this fertility bread good for me?

When you eliminate foods such as dairy, gluten, and processed food from your diet (like I did), it gets tricky to plan means!  But don’t, worry, I’m going to help you figure it out! This bread is a nice way to supplement your daily meals so that you get enough protein and fat and keep your carbs low. It fits into my sample daily fertility meal plan!

Each slice has about 24g of fat, 8 grams of protein, and 8 grams of carbs.  So although this is part of my series on hitting your daily fertility macronutrient ratio goal of at least 35% protein and less than 40% carbs, you need to make sure you get plenty of other sources of protein throughout your day!

Delicious low carb high fat keto bread made with almond butter #keto #paleo

You guys, this is sooo yummy and easy.

This recipe is also filled with foods very beneficial for fertility. Almonds are packed with protein, healthy fats (including Omega 3s), Vitamin E, and amino acids.  Coconut butter is packed with medium-chain triglyceride fatty acids that can help balance your blood sugar, manage your thyroid, up your weight loss, and help you get pregnant.

Organic, pasture raised eggs are one of the best fertility foods out there. They have high-quality protein, fats, vitamins, and minerals.  When you buy organic and pasture raised you are also getting eggs packed with much needed omega-3 fatty acids.  Enjoy without regret!

You can also make this recipe with ALL almond (or other nut) butter and nix the coconut butter.  It ups the protein and lowers the fat a bit.

UPDATE: My readers have been experimenting with this recipe and have found success with all sorts of fun ingredients including: berries, orange or lemon zest, ground flax (pre-ovulation only for seed cycling), goji berries, sliced almonds, and more.

Additionally, some have made these into muffins. They cook for just 15 minutes in regular size muffin tins.

A delicious, super easy,Β  high-fat, low-carb keto bread to keep you full while on the fertility diet! Good for Clean eating, Paleo, Banting, and LCHF diets, in addition to fertility and Keto! Grain free, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, but delicious!


Scale

Ingredients

  • Simple ingredients for keto bread recipe, cashew butter, coconut butter, eggs! Low carb, gluten free bread that is so easy to make!5 organic, pasture raised eggs (4 if they are huge)
  • 3/4 cupΒ organic coconut butter
  • 3/4 cup of organic, unsweetenedΒ almond butter,Β cashew butter, or other nut butter
  • 1 1/2 TbspΒ Apple Cider VinegarΒ (like Braggs- on that is β€œwith the mother”)
  • 3/4 Tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/4 TspΒ fine Sea Salt

Instructions

  • Blend the coconut butter, almond butter and eggs until smooth. Β 
  • Add in other ingredients and mix. Β 
  • Grease a non-toxic 8.25 x 4.5 loaf panΒ (we useΒ glass) withΒ coconut oil,Β and pour ingredients in. Β 
  • Bake at 350 for 35 – 45 minutes.Check that it is done with a toothpick – if it comes out goey, it needs more time, if it comes out with just crumbs, it is done.
  • Slice after it has cooled. Β 
  • Keep in the fridge- it stays good for a week! Β 
  • Enjoy!

Notes

You can substitute any amount of nut butters and coconut butters as long as you have a total of 1.5 cups of butters. I’ve made it with mixed amounts of almond butter, peanut butter, cashew butter, macadamia butter, and coconut butter. Some of my readers have made it with nut-free seed butter as well!

You can pre-slice and freeze the slices for grab-on-the-go if you can’t eat all ten slices in a week.

This recipe is incredibly flexible. You can add spices, berries, etc., and it seems to work out fine!

    I wanna try! But I don’t think I can find coconut butter in my grocery store…. Can I switch with coconut oil or it will be too liquid??
    Another question… have you tried to freeze it?

      Hi Noemie!! You have to try, its sooo yummy! So you have a bunch of options. You can make it just with almond butter (or peanut, macademia, or cashew butter) and skip the coconut butter altogether. You can also make your own coconut butter — google a recipe! Don’t use coconut oil- definitely too liquid.

      I have not tried to freeze it, but I suspect it would be okay. It does fine in the fridge!

    It definitely looks delicious, but unfortunately, it is not a Whole30 recipe. Any paleo bread is not going to be compliant for Whole30.

    • AnnaAnna says

      10/09/2017 at 9:45 pm

      Fair enough- its compliant with Whole30 ingredients, but Whole30 itself doesn’t allow for recreating anything. But for those of us who search for recipes made with Whole30 ingredients, but aren’t worried about the psychological aspects of the Whole30 program- just the nutrition- I wanted them to be able to find it. I do a lot of searching for Whole30 recipes because its hard to find a diet that is no dairy, no soy, no gluten, no sweeteners, etc., not because I am doing Whole30. Sorry for the confusion!

    This recipe is not Whole30. Recreating bread with compliant ingredients is against the rules of Whole30. It is paleo and it confuses people trying to actually do a Whole30!

        It is not compliant. The separate ingredients may be, but once you put them together, it is a food item that is not compliant. There are tons of recipes that are W30 compliant. This is not one. This is a good example of why we tell our 75k members to not trust Pinterest recipes. Thank you.

          Alright, you ladies are intense! I have changed the title, put in a note at the top to ward off people in their first 30 days of Whole30, changed the google search results, and changed the images. I have also changed the images and will not re-pin the old images, but I can’t delete the old ones that are on Pinterest. I will re-pin the new ones in an attempt to make those more visible. I’m not a food blogger- I’m a fertility blogger, so please forgive my blogging indiscretion.

        You really should remove the Whole30 title as you know it is not and if someone is new to Whole30 they trust bloggers to know the rules. Here’s the rule just in case you don’t know it.Almond Flour: Yes

        Yes, you can have almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, cassava flour and other non-grain-based flours, but it’s context-dependent. You can use it in place of breadcrumbs in your meatballs, to dredge a piece of chicken, or to thicken a sauce or stew. You may not use it for Paleo bakingβ€”to make muffins, pancakes, bread, cupcakes, cookies, waffles, biscuits, tortillas, pizza crust, or anything of that nature. We call those recipes Sex With Your Pants On (SWYPO) foods, and they are expressly off-limits during your Whole30.

          Tracey- For the record, I don’t use almond flour, I use almond butter. But, I understand that is irrelevant. Also, Sex With Your Pants On sounds awful, I prefer sex with my pants off.

          Thank you for alerting me to my blogging indiscretion. I am sorry. I have changed the title, changed the google search results, and changed the images to remove “Whole30.” I have also put in a note at the top to ward off people in their first 30 days of Whole30 in case they have inadvertently found my website. I’m not a food blogger- I’m a fertility blogger, so please forgive me. I’ve never actually done Whole30, I just do no gluten, no dairy, no sugar, no sweeteners, no simple carbs, no soy, no processed food, and only low-sugar fruits and veggies. Like I said before its very hard to find recipes that meet these requirements- Keto is loaded with dairy, and Paleo recipes are always adding maple syrup or honey (ugh). LCHF and Keto allow fake sweeteners (gross). So, I like searching for Whole30 recipes because I know they should be near to my requirements. Again- forgive me.

It seems like a very forgiving recipe. Also, cashew butter is emerging as the winner for taste, I’ll update the post soon. Enjoy!!

    Thank you so much for this recipe! Its so helpful and I can’t wait to try it! I appreciated you referencing Whole30. It was helpful to know there would be no added sugar before even opening the recipe. I’ve done Whole 30 and I knew it was the ingredients that were compliant not the bread. I feel people doing Whole 30 are responsible for educating themselves and reading the Whole 30 book which explains what is and isn’t compliant. Anyway that’s my thought on the silly matter:)

      I know, right? Super intense :-). But it made me feel like a “real blogger!” Enjoy the bread! I didn’t include fish because I have a crazy allergy to shellfish and mollusks and its hard to find regular fish that might not have traces from processing. BUT if I didn’t have that I would TOTALLY include fish, especially some nice wild-caught salmon!!

    this recipe is amazing! I am doing a cleanse diet after having to take methotrexate for a suspected ectopic pregnancy πŸ™ and I can’t have a whole bunch of things for two weeks as I am doing this cleanse – my biggest struggle is with 0 carbs (except veggies) – and this ‘bread’ really hits the spot while staying totally on the cleanse! Once this is over, we are moving to the 35% protein, 35-40 % fat, 25-30% carbs diet with no gluten, dairy, etc., so this will be awesome then too! I didn’t have five eggs, so I used just a little less of everything else and 4 eggs, but it is still delicious. I am thinking next time to add cinnamon and possibly ginger to ‘spice’ it πŸ˜‰ THANK YOU!!! Your site gives me hope (and apparently great food recipes)

      It’s been over a month since your post so I hope you’re doing well and feeling healthy. I had to have a methotrexate shot back in August for the same thing — it is SO frustrating and disheartening when you’re trying to hard for a baby. Just wanted to wish you well and support you on this journey. Take care.

      Amanda,

      So sorry for your suspected ectopic! I hope your diet cleanse went well and you are enjoying the fertility macros diet! I had a suspected ectopic back in 2013 and had to do a shot of methotrexate- gross stuff!! Good for you for clearing it out!! Hope you are back to wellness now!

      Emily- So sorry for yours last summer also! Hope your journey is going well!

      xo Anna

    Thank you so much for this amazing bread recipe! I have made it twice now and the first time was a flop because I thought if I added a little turmeric tonic it would be edible. It was so gross! So I decided to add raw cacao powder and agave nectar (still waiting on my lakanto syrup to arrive). I also added chia seeds and chopped dairy free dark chocolate. NOW it tastes like chocolate cake! I can’t wait to play around with the recipe to come up with more variations. I also seed cycle and made up my own recipe for seed muffins so I might try to incorporate that into this bread.

    Is the apple cider vinegar essential or is there a substitute? Unfortunately I’m allergic but I’d love to try the recipe πŸ™‚

      Hmmm good question Jenna! I think it’s probably pretty essential. But maybe it would work with lemon juice???? If you try it, let us know!!

    Hi Anna, any idea for egg substitutes as I just found out I have moderate reactivity to egg white and mild reactivity to egg yolk. Thanks for all you do!

      Try looking up things like flax seed egg substitutes- but unfortunately I don’t think my readers have had much success with egg substitutes in this recipe!

    How would you recommend the best way to store this bread so that I can eat it throughout the week? Thank you πŸ™‚

      Aileen,
      Good question! Between hubby and I we ate it so quickly it wasn’t a problem. My readers have devised a clever solution to solo eaters, however. When it has cooled, pre-slice, and freeze the individual slices. Then just grab one out in the morning to take to work, and it has defrosted by the time you get there!

        Thanks for the tip! Unfortunately my husband didn’t like the taste of the bread too much so I’ll be eating it alone. It seems to last me almost a whole week.

    Thanks so much for taking the time to post these free, and incredibly helpful recipes. I’ve been trying to conceive my 2nd for the last 3 years with several unsuccessful IUI’s and failed IVF. Although I eat relatively healthy, I’ve been holding off for so long on getting too strict with my diet because I didn’t want to drive myself (further insane). But something about your blog and writing convinced me. I’m going to try this recipe this week! πŸ™‚

    Hello Anna,

    I just love your blog and I appreciate so much all your help to guide the couples to recover their health and to get some new hope. I’ve been studying it for almost one week, I’m making changes every day, order new products, try recipes (trying to conceive for 6 years, endo, fybroms).
    I’ve just made the bread. Everything was very easy and it turned out very nicely. My only concern is: Could the loaf be too greasy, oily? Mine it is. I made the simple recipe with almond butter and coconut butter for cooking. I don’t digest the fat well and I am a bit worried that this is too fatty.
    Or maybe it is different when it gets cooled.
    I also want to check. Which kind of almond butter shall we use? I bought the Meridian one, but it is made with roasted almonds, skin on. Is it OK?

      Hi Cathy!!

      So glad you are loving the blog! YES, the bread is very, very fatty. It is totally a high-fat bread. It is part of what makes it so good for fertility. How did it go with your stomach? Are you sure its really fats that you have a hard time digesting? Is your gallbladder okay? Have you consulted with a doctor or naturopath?

      Xo,

      Anna

    How many grams are in 1 slice of the bread? I’m trying to track foods with My Fitness Pal (referred to above by someone as My Fertility Pal, lol πŸ™‚ ) and want to be sure I get the right quantity… Also, for some reason the nutritional breakdown of this recipe in MFP differs from the breakdown you list above. Which is correct? Many thanks and looking forward to trying it soon!

      Hello! The nutitional info at the bottom should be correct for the ingredients I listed in the recipe– it would be different if you used different butters! Also, it is so weird that the numbers are different, because I used My Fitness Pal to figure out the nutritional information! So they should be exactly the same!!! I’ll try and figure it out, but I’d go with the info on the blog post for now!

    Dear Anna I need to bake my own version of bread. Please tell me what type of materials are ok. I mean the type of flour, bran and any thing else. Can I use baking powder or leavin in my bread? Would you please answer me soon? I don’t have enough time to prepare for my ivf cycle

    Thank you so much for keeping Whole 30 in the description.. I wanted a bread recipe that excludes dairy, sugar & grains (mainly for the sake of my husband). I’ve done the Whole 30 diet before, but this time just want to follow the basic idea of eliminating certain foods, without being so strict. This is super helpful!! Excited to find your site. Facing secondary infertility after the death of our baby has been very hard. This brings some welcome hope!
