Almond flour is different from almond meal in that the almonds ground for almond meal still have the skins. We frequently get asked about almond flour, which is just blanched almonds (that is, almonds with the skins removed) that are ground up. And lastly, almond flour is easy to find at just about any grocery store nowadays. There’s no denying almond flour tastes delicious (subtly like almonds). Additionally, almond flour is a breeze to work with. When we started dabbling in keto baking, we quickly realized how useful almond flour is! For starters, it lends itself equally well to sweet and savory recipes. As a result, we added yeasty flavor and aroma without any rise. Rather, we just mixed instant yeast with water until it turned foamy. Here we didn’t actually proof the yeast because we didn’t add any type of sugar. (Read more about this process on Scientific American). As the yeast feeds on sugar through the process of fermentation, the yeast converts the sugar into energy and emits carbon dioxide as a result (which is why we see the bubbles as the yeast proofs). Rest assured that these recipes are still keto and their carb count isn’t effected.įor a mini science lesson, we’ll explain briefly what happens. A lot of people were concerned that the sugar required to feed the yeast would increase the carb count and make the end result not keto-friendly. Yeast should be proofed, which means dissolving it in lukewarm water (105F to 110F) and combining it with some form of sugar to feed the yeast (such as honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar, etc.). This Low Carb Soft Pretzel Recipe and a couple of our other low carb and keto bread recipes include yeast as an ingredient (check out our Best Keto Bread Recipe!). This recipe is from our e-Book Crowd-Pleasing Snacks and Party Food Appetizers! Check it out for more keto appetizer ideas, including the keto beer cheese recipe (in the photo above) that we served with these Low Carb Soft Pretzel Recipe (Keto Pretzel Bites).
