kcalIngredients
- For Keto Bread
50 g Ground psyllium husk powder
140 g almond flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
240 ml hot water
2 tsp cider vinegar
3 egg whites
Sesame seeds for topping (or can use any other seeds if preferred)
- For The Eggs Benedict
2 eggs
3 egg yolks
2 tsp white wine or cider vinegar
50 g butter
splash of lemon
Directions
- Making the keto bread
- Preheat oven to 175 C
- Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl and bring water to the boil
- Separate the egg whites and the yolks from the eggs. (save the yolks for later if doing the eggs benedict)
- In a separate bowl, lightly hand whisk egg whites for 20 seconds, add the vinegar and combine well. Add the boiling water while beating with a hand mixer for about 30 seconds until all combined. Do not over mix the dough (it should be a quite a wet gooey consistency)
- Moisten hands with some olive oil and hand shape into 6 separate rolls, place onto a greased baking tray. Top with sesame seeds.
- Bake on the lower rack of the oven for about 50-60 minutes. If you hear a hollow sound when tapping the bottom then that means they’re done.
- You can use sesame seeds, poppy seeds or whatever you fancy on top or why not add some parmesan or garlic powder to your mix or some cinnamon for a sweet treat just remove the salt.
- Making the eggs benedict
- First the hollondaise
- Use the leftover egg yolks from the bread recipe, add 2 x tsp of white wine or cider vinegar and whisk on a low heat over a bain-marie
- Melt 50g of butter in the microwave and let slightly cool, bring the eggs off the heat and add a splash of lemon juice to stop the eggs from cooking, slowly and continuously whisking add the melted butter bit by bit until you get a creamy smooth silky hollandaise, add salt to taste.
- Now to assemble
- use 2 rolls, (you can use one sliced through) pop them in the oven for 4-5 mins
- Once warmed remove from oven and slightly flatten them making a dent in the middle. add some crushed avocado and if you’re feeling really indulgent some grilled halloumi
- You can use whichever protein you like I love crispy pancetta but can use bacon or ham or none for you veggies out there.
- Poach eggs (3 mins on a low heat in for the perfect poached egg)
- Place eggs on the top and smother the eggs in the creamy delicious hollandaise and ENJOY!
