I put lots of info on the food section you don't need a fancy bread maker I've had my Morphy richards maker for years with no problems. Honestly if your a bread lover like me this stuff is so nice and you just cut the loaf in half then freeze it keeping the other half in the fridge buy ingrediency in bulk and you all set.

If you want any info about it like where to buy ingrediencies etc just ask.
Hello maca44 are you able to give us more info on this amazing bread of you’rs please and Thankyou

All the info is on this thread https://forum.diabetes.org.uk/boards/threads/keto-walnut-rye-bread.92528/ just follow the youtube lady also https://www.buywholefoodsonline.co.uk/ they are a good quality source and do the best oat fibre I don't use the light fluffy stuff.

If you want the ingrediencies in grams I can list them if you wish I have tweaked it and now get a perfect loaf everytime.
 
Ingredients:




65g oat fiber (Not the fluffy stuff but the powder Organic one)

85g Flaxseed meal (Basically ground Linseed)

160g Vital wheat gluten

1 tsp Pink himalayan sea salt

2-3 Tbs Sweetener of choice (I use Stevia)

1/2 tsp Xanthan gum (Get this spot on it is very important)

1 Tbs Active dry yeast (Packs you get at any supermarket Tesco or Hovis use the whole sachet)

1 tsp Honey (Yes I know but don't panic it is eaten by the yeast)

28g Butter, softened (Dont use microwave just leave at room temp for 2 hrs)

1 cup Warm water (258g)

2 Large eggs, lightly beaten (Room temp you don't want the warm water to cool)

I go for 30c water by the time you add everything the temp drops so yeast will do it's stuff.
 
Thanks for the advice @Maca44
going to be making bread next weekend
everything just ordered online
 
I use the basic loaf setting on my machine but you can use gluten setting as well.

Good luck and let me know how you get on.
 
Thanks for the info @Maca44 My bread baking oven arrived yesterday, Murphy Richards fastbake
it doesn’t have a “Gluten setting“ so will try it on basic setting,just waiting on the Oat Fibre & Vital Wheat to be delivered

whilst I was shopping online
I also ordered the hemp flower as fancy trying the Walnut Keyto loaf

Basic setting should work fine do the recipe as it is then once your happy have a fiddle adding seeds etc, hope you like it as much as I do.
 
For bread, not sure if you’ve tried:



Probably the best tasting and looking low carb bread I’ve had. And you can freeze it!
Yes I agree and you would think it was just good bread not low carb bread, the loaf, choc brownies and hot cross buns are delicious. I also order from the low carb company, which is a seperate company but excellent bread too, so glad I found them, thanks to you!

Their rolls are nice 😛
 
Today I am getting a delivery which includes low carb choc brownies just because I can LoL
 
U

I wish they could deliver to Australia lol they sound amazing and looking at there foods making me hungry .
Yes but I bet they do deliver to Oz most deliver worldwide, have a wee look.


These are the two I have ordered from, also check out Amazon.
 
the breadmaker is in action tonight.

my only concern is it didn’t want to cook for quite as long as I was expecting using the standard setting for a 2lb loaf. (Think it wants to cook for 3 hrs whereas the lady on the video suggested 3.5 hrs)
I have a Morphy Richards but it is called a fastbake (maybe as the name suggests it’s faster than some)
will see if I’m going to have toast for breakfast and a sandwich at lunch time ?

I’ve making the ketobread as recommended by @Maca44

This morning was just looking forward to toast, however it wasn’t successful
doesn’t seen to be rising the same as on the demo video,
infact Its only grown minimally.
the only thing I think I might’ve done wrong looking back at the video, I didn’t sift together the wheat gluten and oat fibre,I simply weighed them out and added to the pan, will try again

I did slice the loaf and toast a slice, however it wasn't palatable & tasted like glue
(not that I’ve ever eaten glue) hope for more success later with the next experiment

I tried a keto bread recipe (not the one above) and made rolls, they were OK but the texture was a bit too cake like.
I hope your next attempt is more successful, even with normal bread it takes a bit of practice to get it right and even then it doesn't come right every time.

Thankyou goodybags , I have a bread maker I’m still finding it’s sweet spot as it’s a hit and miss sometimes .
 
I think the problems I have are with the yeast - make sure that you have a yeast suitable for bread machines and that you are adding enough - I now add two sachets as the 7gm sachets are smaller than the advised weight of 9 gm and the yeast seems rather wimpy.
Back in the day, when I worked for Allied Lyons I used to save the excess items I was sent for testing, one was the yeast, and I used to make bread all the time during the years after I left and got married. It was infallible, far better than the sachets available from the shops.
 
I'm confused as to why it's not turned out right did you use the powder type oat fibre organic not the white fluffy stuff.

Also the yeast from the company I buy my stuff from is no good you need the stuff in the supermarket in packs of 8 or 6 and use 1 whole sachet.

thanks for the advice so far @Maca44

I’ve just made a third loaf - the best so far as it rose but but not to the height it should
and wasn’t edible

It had a good crust but when cut was quite sticky in its texture not fluffy like it should be,
it almost looks like it hadn’t fully cooked, but if it’s not fully risen maybe it hasnt,

I cooked this one on program 3 (wholemeal) which cooks for 3.5 hrs
on the first 2 attempts used “the standard“ setting program 1 (3hrs)

this machine doesn’t have “gluten setting“
the machine I got is a Richards Fastbake

I used a different flaxseed meal this time & got some fresh powdered yeast (which says on the tin suitable for bread machines)

I know it’s not in the recipe but wondering about adding baking powder or bi-carb ?
and cooking for a bit longer - somehow ??

the organic oat fibre I got is:


I think ordered the right stuff but it is quite fine (like flour)
if I can’t bake a successful one might have to try a different recipe

I might just try this Walnut Keto Ryebread


it’s cooked in the oven
looks delicious but less like a “normal loaf”
