This flourless, gluten-free bread is perfect for those with dietary restrictions or following a low carb diet.
With only 5 ingredients, this peanut butter bread is quick and easy to make. Plus, there’s no bread maker required! You can make this in an oven, or even a Ninja Foodi Multi-cooker!
The Peanut Butter
For this recipe, you’ll want to use a crunchy peanut butter. Not only does this add texture to the bread, but smooth peanut butter is higher in carbs!
You’ll want to make sure you’re using a high quality peanut butter, that is free from sugar. If you’re in the USA, then Justin’s Classic Peanut Butter is perfect, with only two ingredients that are sustainability sourced. In the UK, Pip & Nut Crunchy Peanut Butter is really good! Made from Hi-Oleic peanuts, which offer extra health benefits over standard peanut butters.
The White Wine Vinegar
For the best results, I recommend using white wine vinegar. But if you don’t have any, or are intolerant to white wine vinegar, you can use an alternative such a a normal brown vinegar. Baking powder can also work, but the results might not be quite the same.
The sweetener (optional)
Using sweetener in peanut butter bread, is completely optional. The amount used can also be varied based on how sweet you’d like your bread.
For this recipe you can use whichever sweetener you prefer. For those on a low carb diet, or keto diet, then I recommend using Erythritol or if in the USA, Monk Fruit. Both of these sweeteners can be fully deducted from the carb content as they have a glycemic index rating of zero!
Another good sweetener is Xylitol, which tastes great but has a glycemic index rating of 7 so you need to count 50% of the carbs from xylitol to ensure you’re not going over your daily limit. Warning: If you have a dog, don’t use xylitol as it is toxic to doggies.
Keto, Low Carb Peanut Butter Bread
Gluten-free & Flourless peanut butter bread, made using only 5 ingredients. Suitable for both keto and low carb diets.
Ingredients
- 250g Crunchy, sugar-free peanut butter
- 3 Medium or Large Eggs
- 1 Teaspoon White Wine Vinegar, or 1 Teaspoon baking powder
- 1 to 2 Tablespoons of a low carb sweetener to taste (e.g. Erythritol)
- Pinch of sea salt or pink himinlayan rock salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Grease a loaf pan with butter. You can also line the loaf tin with non-stick baking paper.
- Measure all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Whisk together until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined. You can whisk this by hand, but I highly recommend using an electric mixer.
- Once combined, pour the mix into the greased loaf tin. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, and leave it to rest until cooled before cutting.
Notes
You can also use this recipe to make mini peanut butter loaves, or even peanut butter bagels by using different types of baking tins and dividing the mixture between the mini loaf/bagel tins.

Aaaamazing! I have been looking for a keto bread for ages that is really easy to make. I had been making an almond flour one, but it tastes SOOOOOO eggy. This is so much better, thank you thank you! I’m going to try it with a different nut butter next time. Maybe almond butter?
Really good. I added marmite to it and it was yummy
This braed is a game changed. I ran out of peanut butter so I used almond butter for a 2nd one, and that also turned out great. I’m wondering, if you’ve tried it with cashew butter? While higher in carbs, i think it’d be a good change and for days when I’m only doing OMAD it’d fit in well.
