Sunbutter Bread – Keto / Low Carb

I have always wanted to try bread made with nut butter, but I don’t usually eat nut butters.

I made this bread with both peanut butter and unsweetened sunflower butter (sunbutter).

Both tasted really good but I prefer the sunbutter one due to its lower carb count.  However – when I made this with baking soda, the bread came out GREEN

 

Yes – you read that right – it was GREEN while the peanut butter bread was fine.  I made it without the baking soda and it looked fine.  Both tasted great but the look might not appeal to everyone.

Then I thought – how perfect to make GREEN bread for St Patrick’s Day or Christmas.

So, if you want the GREEN bread, add baking soda to the bread batter.

My Keto Irish Soda Bread is also great to make for St Patrick’s Day.
