Zero Carb Yogurt Bread

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I really enjoy this bread because it’s gluten-free, low-carb, and incredibly easy to whip up. There’s no flour or sugar, and it still delivers a tender, moist texture. The Greek yogurt gives it a bit of tang while adding protein, and the eggs keep it fluffy and light. Best of all, it comes together with minimal prep and only takes about half an hour in the oven.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat preferred)
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

Preheat Oven
I start by setting my oven to 350°F (175°C). I lightly grease a small loaf pan or use a silicone baking mold to make removing the bread easier.
Mix Ingredients
In a bowl, I whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, and baking powder until everything is smooth and well combined.
Bake
Next, I pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 25–30 minutes. I keep an eye on the top—it should turn golden brown. I check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
Cool & Serve
After baking, I let the bread cool completely in the pan before slicing. This step helps it set and makes slicing much easier.

Servings and timing

This recipe yields about 8 slices. Prep time is just 5 minutes, and baking takes 25–30 minutes. So in under 35 minutes total, I’ve got a fresh loaf ready to go.

Variations

I like to get creative by adding in herbs or spices—garlic powder, dried oregano, or even a pinch of chili flakes add a flavorful twist. For a slightly cheesy version, I sometimes stir in a tablespoon of grated Parmesan. If I want a sweeter option, a dash of cinnamon and a few drops of vanilla extract work really well too.

Storage/Reheating

I store leftover bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator—it stays fresh for up to 5 days. When I want to reheat a slice, I usually pop it in the toaster or warm it gently in a skillet. It also freezes well; I slice it first and then freeze with parchment between the slices for easy grab-and-go pieces.

FAQs

What does this bread taste like?

It has a mild, slightly tangy flavor from the Greek yogurt and a soft, eggy texture—similar to a very light quick bread.

Can I use flavored yogurt?

I stick with plain Greek yogurt to avoid added sugars and carbs. Flavored yogurts might change both the taste and the carb content.

Is this bread keto-friendly?

Yes, since it contains no flour or sugar and uses high-fat Greek yogurt, it’s great for a keto or low-carb diet.

Can I double the recipe?

Definitely. I just use a larger loaf pan and extend the baking time by about 5–10 minutes. I always check for doneness with a toothpick.

Can I make this dairy-free?

For a dairy-free version, I can try using a plant-based yogurt with similar thickness, though the texture might be slightly different.

Conclusion

This Zero Carb Yogurt Bread has quickly become one of my go-to recipes when I want something easy, healthy, and low-carb. It’s quick to make, endlessly adaptable, and fits perfectly into so many meals. Whether I’m toasting it for breakfast or using it as a base for a sandwich, I love how this simple recipe brings so much to the table.
