Recently a friend asked me about my thoughts regarding “protein bread – low carb bread.” At first I was a bit surprised because I hadn’t yet tried a ” protein – low carb bread.” I bake mainly wholemeal bread with seeds. So I thought that this “protein bread” may be just a trend again, with lots of nuts and dairy or soy products. So I started my research: what is behind this “protein bread”?

One can find many recipes and articles on the net about this topic. The protein bread is recommended particularly for dinner because it is rich in proteins and low in carbohydrates. When I read the ingredients list, I was very surprised because the ingredient list sounded like a recipe for gluten-free cookies! It is definitely not an enriched whole grain bread with proteins. Far from it, the bread consists mainly nuts and seeds, and very little flour, if at all! In my opinion, the bread tastes very interesting, but best eaten alone, because it is already rich in fats For me, nothing beats a good wholemeal bread with many seeds and now and then with nuts. I like to knead the dough with yogurt, quark, buttermilk or milk – my very own protein bread
I would be happy to hear your thoughts on this topic
