Perfecting Soul Bread

“I tried really hard to find a suitable low carb bread recipe on the web. Unfortunately, most were too gritty and the taste wasn’t right for, say, a grilled cheese.
I discovered when using cream cheese as a base, the protein powder works great as a flour replacement.
Pat Gunder helped by baking the bread in a lower altitude, making it even lighter than our first batches.
We came up with a bread that works and pleases almost everyone.” – Gloria Koch, aka Souls Song

Soul Bread Q & A

Recipe creator, Souls Song (aka Gloria Koch) answers the most-asked questions about Soul Bread.

What are the best (tested and proven) brands of unflavored whey protein isolate?

NOW, Isopure, Hoosier Hill Farm, Advanced Gold Standard, Georgia’s Protein for Balance and Canadian Protein.

The most important thing is finding an isolate type protein powder – not the concentrate type.

Can I use other types of protein powders to make the Soul Bread?

Any powder you use will change the texture and taste of course, but egg white protein and pea protein powders have been tested and used successfully.

What does xanthan gum do for the bread?

Xanthan gum replaces the gluten found in flour, giving Soul Bread a more bread-like texture.

Will other gums work besides xanthan gum?

Yes! You may substitute guar gum or glucomannan powder instead.

Is there a substitute for using eggs in the recipe?

Yes! Adding 1/4 cup more olive oil, another 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream and 1 more teaspoon of xanthan gum works as an egg substitute.

Is there a substitute for using olive oil in the recipe?

Yes! Use1/4 to 1/3 cup of melted coconut oil or avocado oil in place of the olive oil.

What if my bread ends up dry?

Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the recipe next time. Be sure not to over-bake.

How do I keep the sweet varieties of Soul Bread from having a bitter aftertaste?

Recipe creator, Souls Song recommends liquid sucralose, erythritol and (rarely) xylitol (keep away from pets). De-bittered stevia is also available from EZ-Sweetz.

“I avoid any aftertaste by powdering my own erythritol. For each cup of sugar equivalent, I use 1 1/4 cup powdered erythritol and add a few drops of liquid sucralose to taste (Erythritol is only 70% as sweet as sugar.), plus an extra pinch of salt.”

Why didn’t my loaf rise very high?

Over-stirring the bread batter after adding the protein powder will prevent maximum rise, resulting in a heavier texture.

Check your protein powder to make sure it’s isolate. The concentrate types will not rise to your expectations.

My bread isn’t cooked all the way through, but the outside is done. What can I do?

Wrap a piece of aluminum foil over the top to keep the bread from burning. Allow the inside to bake a little longer, until a knife or pick comes out clean.

What can I do if there’s a hole in the center of my bread?

Cavities form when air gets trapped in the batter and expands from the heat while baking. Tapping your pan on the counter gets rid of air bubbles before baking and helps keep holes from forming.

How do I store Soul Bread?

Soul Bread stays fresh a few days on the counter, or up to a week in the fridge. You may also wrap individual slices separately and freeze. Soul Bread thaws very well.
