QUICK & EASY ~ KETO Microwave Bread & Cinnamon Toast (Low Carb, Gluten & Sugar Free)

A Crunchy & Tasty 4 minute* bread
 for toast and sandwiches. 
*This bread only cooks for 90 seconds in a microwave oven. The total time to mix, microwave, cool and toast is about 4 minutes.*

Ingredients:
coconut oil cooking spray
1 tablespoon butter
4 tablespoons almond flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 egg
Topping:
2 - 3 tablespoons butter
Keto cinnamon sugar**

Method:
Lightly coat the inside of a 4 inch microwave safe bowl or mug with the cooking spray. Set aside.
Place the butter in a small microwave safe bowl or measuring cup. Heat in a microwave oven, for at second intervals, just until the butter is melted. Add the flour, baking powder, salt and egg. Whisk until well blended and smooth. Use a bowl scraper to pour the batter into the prepared bowl/mug. 



Heat in a microwave oven for 90 seconds. 



Invert the bowl to remove the bread. Allow to cool enough to be handled. Use a serrated knife to slice through the middle. (Like slicing a bun or sandwich roll.) 



Toast to desired level in a toaster. Use as bread for a sandwich or top with butter for toast. Makes one serving (2 slices) of microwave bread/toast.

For cinnamon toast, spread 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons butter onto each warm toasted slice of bread. Sprinkle with 1 to 2 teaspoons on Keto cinnamon sugar. Enjoy!

**To make Keto Cinnamon Sugar, stir together 1/4 cup Lakanto Classic Monkfruit sweetener (or sweetener of choice) and 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Store in an airtight container. This can be used for cinnamon toast, added to coffee and more.**

Notes: this makes a quick and tasty bread that does not taste "eggy". 
We have regular bread, in our home, for my non-keto husband. He tried my cinnamon toast and liked it...so, I guess I will be sharing a slice with him, whenever I make this for breakfast!
