Carnivore Yogurt Bread

This Carnivore Yogurt Bread is a delicious, fluffy, and high-protein recipe that sticks to the principles of the carnivore diet. It uses only animal-based ingredients while delivering the perfect texture for a versatile bread substitute.


Ingredients:

  • 6 large eggs (separated)
  • 1/2 cup full-fat plain yogurt (unsweetened, preferably grass-fed)
  • 1/2 cup pork rinds (finely ground into a powder)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for extra flavor)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tartar (optional, helps stabilize the egg whites)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

2. Separate the Eggs:

  • Crack the eggs and separate the yolks from the whites. Place the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another.

3. Whip the Egg Whites:

  • Add the cream of tartar (if using) to the egg whites and beat with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. This step is crucial for giving the bread a light and airy texture.

4. Mix the Wet Ingredients:

  • In the bowl with the yolks, whisk together the yogurt, sea salt, and Parmesan cheese (if using). Once smooth, fold in the pork rind powder until well combined.

5. Fold in the Egg Whites:

  • Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the yolk mixture in small batches. Use a spatula and take care not to deflate the egg whites completely; this will help keep the bread fluffy.

6. Transfer to the Loaf Pan:

  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

7. Bake the Bread:

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Cool and Serve:

  • Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan before slicing. Serve plain, or enjoy with butter, ghee, or cream cheese.

Storage Tips:

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • Reheat slices in a skillet with butter or ghee, or toast in the oven for a crispier texture.

Optional Carnivore Variations:

  • Add shredded cheese (like cheddar or mozzarella) for a cheesy version.
  • Sprinkle pork rind crumbs on top before baking for a crunchy crust.
  • Serve topped with bacon or sausage slices for a complete carnivore meal.

This Carnivore Yogurt Bread is the perfect way to enjoy bread-like texture and flavor while staying 100% animal-based! 🥚🧈🍞
