Low Carb Sesame Tahini Bread

Today’s Low Carb Sesame Tahini Bread recipe is for anyone who follows the gluten-free or the Keto diet for one reason or another!

If you are not familiar with the benefits of the low carb diet plan, you can check my testimonial on the Dr.Axe website:

I Tried Keto for 30 Days — Here’s What Happened

Psst! Speaking of the keto diet and weight-loss, I have an upcoming book on healthy weight-loss using the low carb diet plan, specially designed for women. If you wish to be among the first to learn more is, feel free to subscribe to my newsletter and become an insider! You will get access to many cool freebies and special surprises!

As for the gluten free diet benefits, I have dedicated two articles explaining my experience with the wheat protein free food and how it impacted my gut health helping me get rid of the constant painful bloating and IBS:

The Dangers of Gluten

The Gluten Free Diet Benefits

So, now let’s get back to our keto tahini bread!

I personally love sesame tahini because of its magical properties and nutritional value! These little tasty seeds are exceptionally good for anyone with a sensitive stomach, especially for women of all ages!

And if you are, like many other people, wondering “Is tahini low carb?”, I have explained why I consider sesame tahini to be a wonderful low carb friendly food perfect for those following the HFLC diet plan. You can read the info in my other yummy low carb recipe where I talk about the net carbs in this natural sesame product – the Tahini Keto Cake! Do not miss this one, if you are a fan of sesame keto recipes!

“But, Milica, are you sure you are talking about tahini, not sesame flour meal? How the heck is tahini going to become a loaf of bread?”

Fear not, by adding a few eggs we will transform this gooey mixture into a tasty spongy loaf of keto sesame bread that will surprise and delight you! During the baking process, the eggs coagulate and cause the batter to homogenize and condense into a wonderful bundle of keto sponge bread.

I do have to warn you, though, the bread is a little moist and oily, so store it only in an air-tight container in your fridge for a couple of days!

How about a low carb spread on top?

If you are wondering what to spread on top of this keto deliciousness, I highly recommend the Bulgarian pepper and tomato delicacy – the Mighty Lutenitsa (or the other Balkan variation called the ajvar pepper spread or simply ayvar). Once you try this lutenitsa recipe with eggplant or not, you will never go back! I promise! It is called “the Balkan caviar” for a reason! And no worries, this Bulgarian delicacy is a 100% keto friendly spread (or it can also be used as a low carb side dish, a keto diet salsa recipe or a low carb ketchup substitute as well – a totally versatile keto vegan condiment! Woohoo!) Here is the recipe (I will be posting new fresh photos of my next lutenitsa batch very soon, so stay tuned!):

Balkan Vegan Salsa (Lutenitsa)

I got a little side-tracked. But that’s normal – I bet every single person who have ever tried homemade luitenitsa in their life can safely say with a hand on their heart that it is ultra addictive!

Now, back to our tahini keto bread!

Here are all the ingredients you need, and how to prepare this amazing low carb recipe:

Oh, and one last thing I almost forgot! Do not feel obliged to use sesame tahini, if you are not a fan. Some types can have a slightly bitter aftertaste. You can use whatever tahini you prefer: sunflower, pumpkin seed tahini, almond butter, hazelnut, walnut, etc. Note: be careful with peanuts and peanut butter – to be botanically correct, they are not nuts but legumes, so technically they are not a LCHF friendly food. And always read your labels to check if there are any added carbs with some sneaky names for sugars!

Alright, grab your bread baking mold, and let’s begin!

OK, last thing, I promise! If your baking pan does not have a non-stick coating, put a sheet of baking paper at the bottom to prevent the keto bread from sticking to the pan!
