Soul bread is one of the most popular low carb bread recipes out there and for good reason!
It bakes up nice and fluffy with crispy edges that just beg for butter.
Best news is? Unlike my almond flour bread, it’s completely flour and low carb flour free! Making it a great way to diversify your low carb lunches, toasts, and sides.
