This easy recipe for Keto Cheesy Beer Bread is low carb, gluten-free, grain-free and out of this world. And each slice has just 3g net carbs.
Greetings beer bread lovers.
That phrase might sound like an oxymoron, but it doesn't have to be. Just because you're on a low carb diet, that doesn't mean that you have to give up bread completely. Quite the opposite, actually. It just takes some low carb bread ninja skills to pull it off.
Take leavening agents, for example.
Today's Keto Cheesy Beer Bread recipe uses a combination of light beer and baking powder to make it rise. The beer gives the bread that yeasty fermented taste that regular high carb yeast bread has. And you get nice air pockets from the beer, as you do when carbon dioxide is released from yeast.
This low carb beer bread has a wonderful texture and a lovely crumb to it.
And the addition of cheddar cheese is, I have to say, pretty spectacular. It's the only thing that can improve upon beer and bread. Cheese is naturally low carb, so you can add it in and still have a slice of bread with only 3g net carbs. So go grab yourself a cold one, and let's make some low carb beer bread.
Cheers!

I just made this Keto beer bread tonight. It was extremely easy and I couldn’t believe how much it reminded me of the old high carb Beer bread that I used to make and thought I would never get to make again. I didn’t have any Oat Fiber so I used Coconut Flour. What a treat! This is a wonderful recipe and will be my go-to bread from now on for helping to keep On our Keto lifestyles. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe with us.

Roselyn says
Hi! This looks yummy. However, I don't have oat fiber. What can I use as replacement? Thanks very much.
EmilyKrill says
Thanks! You could use coconut flour if you don't have oat fiber, but it's ok to skip it if you don't. The oat fiber improves the texture of the bread, but is not necessary for the recipe to be a success. I'd add an extra 1/12 tablespoon almond flour or coconut flour and that should be fine.
