Flowers I got for my birthday last week from Hubby |
Don't you love finding a recipe that you can adapt to your needs? I sure do! For the past few days I've been on a bread kick but since I live low carb and I don't have any low carb bread in the house, the hunt was on trying to find something that I could make.
Low and Behold Ginny's Low Carb Kitchen! She has this wonderful bread recipe that I adapted to meet my wants. You can find her recipe at the link above. I didn't change it much at all since it was so good. I did change out butter for "coconut oil" and heavy cream for the "water--or kefir, or coconut milk". And I did cook it a little different.
For starters, I dug out this microwave safe muffin pan. Remember those? It came from a time when full meals were cooked in microwaves and there were all sorts of pans to help you cook in the microwave.
I gave it good spray with cooking spray so that nothing would stick.
I then put the batter in each cup. I put 3 teaspoons of batter in each cup, and I know that doesn't sound like much but remember the entire recipe only makes 1 big slice of bread. I cooked it in the microwave for 2 full minutes
They came out small but is OK because I wasn't done with them. And at 2 net carbs for the whole batch, this is a good start!
Then I cooked a sausage patty and an egg. Who else had a sausage, egg, and "English muffin" breakfast for 1.6 carbs? Me that's who (and I packed one for lunch as well)
With so much help out there in blog land, this low carb living is easy. Where do you find recipes?
Now that sounds like a great breakfast. I will go check out her recipe. Love how low the carb count is. Thank you. Have a blessed Easter.
ReplyDeleteWell I will definitely check out that site! That's a pretty low carb count for what you ate! Way to go! :)

This sounds so good to me. I love English Muffins and really any kind of bread, but I definitely have to be careful with the carbs. Thanks for sharing this! And, the flowers are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and your family, Lynn Marie!
