Guys I feel like I made history today with this 8 Min Easy Low Carb Flatbread.
SERIOUSLY.
If you are someone who eats low carb then you will know what I mean when I say trying to find bread replacement options is NOT EASY.
A lot of keto bread recipes I've tried in the past have been huge flops (literally, I've seen them deflate before my eyes..LOL). BUT THIS ONE…oh this one is so different.

EASY LOW CARB FLATBREAD
It's soft, fluffy, actually tastes GOOD and works as a replacement for so many things! Burger buns, naan bread with dip, cheese bread, pizza crust, you name it!
Did I mention it only takes 2 minutes to prepare and 5-6 minutes to bake?
This easy low carb flatbread is made with almond flour, coconut flour and a special ingredient called “Vital Wheat Gluten”.
If you've never heard of it, Vital Wheat Gluten is essentially a protein.
It's the “gluten” extracted from flour. It contains just 16 NET carbs per cup and is completely keto-friendly..unless of course you are celiac or gluten intolerant!
So without further ado, here is the top secret amazing recipe I have been raving about. It's about to rock your world..
Ingredients In This Easy Low Carb Flatbread Recipe
- Almond Flour I use the Kirkland Costco brand of almond flour (I buy it in bulk on Amazon or at Costco itself occasionally). Typically you can find it in a double pack on Amazon for a reduced price.
- Coconut Flour – I also use coconut flour for this recipe. As I’ve noted in many of my past recipes, the brand of almond and coconut flour can affect the final outcome of the recipe because absorbency can vary depending on how the flour has been processed.
- Vital Wheat Gluten – If you have questions about why I include this ingredient, I wrote an entire article on what it is and why I use Vital Wheat Gluten on my keto diet! I also included where to buy it, how many carbs it contains..and how to use it in different kinds of baking.
Tools I Used To Make 8 Min Easy Keto Flatbread
- Mixing Bowls
- Cookie Sheet
- Low Carb Substitution Guide – This is totally optional but if you like my recipes, I now have a $5 guide available with all of the substitutions I use to create every recipe on my site. You can use this to convert old traditional recipes and create new keto recipes! You can purchase it here and/or read more if you are interested. I appreciate your support so much guys!
- Nutritional Food Scale – AKA my best friend. This little buddy has been with me for over 4 years and never fails. Perfect measurements and only needs the batteries replaced maybe once a year!
Tips For Making Easy Low Carb Flatbread
- Add more sour cream if you find the dough too dry.
- Feel free to switch-up the spices if you prefer!
- Roll your flat bread thinner for a crispier final product
How To Store Easy Low Carb Flatbread
- Store this bread in a ziplock bag at room temperature for up to 2 days OR freeze and thaw for a future snack.
- Re-heat by microwaving between a slightly damp piece of paper towel to bring back some softness to the bread.

Yum. I had no sour cream so I used Greek yogurt instead it is really good, and filling too.

Hi, I haven't made the recipe yet. I just noticed that when I printed the recipes, it doesn't have the source/web address anywhere on the page. maybe consider adding your website to print on the recipe so it'd be easier to come back and praise or ask questions. Plus, if I pass the paper copy along to a friend, they know where to find you. just a suggestion to make sure you are getting credit for your work in the easiest way. Cheers.

Lovely recipe, and so delicious, I didn’t add any seasoning other than salt because I subbed out part of the sour cream with parsley garlic cream cheese. I needed a bit extra sour cream to get a dough, and I rolled it out between two pieces of parch emend, left it unoiled and baked it an extra 3 mins, because I wanted it thicker like naan. I can’t wait to try this out using my trick for hot hog buns. Roll out dough and bake it on a taco shell baker!

I'm very happy, when I was mixing my ingredients it seemed a little dry to I added a T. butter and it came out perfect! next time I'll roll them out a little thinner...and add more flavor but the texture is perfect! thanks
