This has now become my favourite low carb bread because it is easy and quick to make, it’s fresh, it can be toasted and the taste is better than many other breads that packaged in stores. I don’t find the taste of this bread to be eggy at all and I have also made another variant of this bread using only the egg white and adding an additional tablespoon of melted butter. The result is also great! Give these two variants a try and let me which one you prefer!

Can this be made without Rosemary? My husband hates the flavor or Rosemary… also does it have a heavy cheese flavor?
It can be made without Rosemary. It’s only added for flavor, which I love – although I had my doubts at first. As for the cheese, I don’t find it too cheesy – it depends on the cheese/brand you use – how strong, mature it is, but you can replace the cheddar cheese with a lighter mozzarella and even add a bit less. Let me know how it turns out if you decide to make it.
Your recipe calls for 3 tablespoons almond flour. And beside it you have a half cup. Isnt it a 1/4 cup
