If you check out our bread section on the site you will find bread made in many different healthy ways. We have high protein bread made from wheat protein, soy protein, why protein isolate, egg white protein, and even tapioca flour to substitute for wheat flour.
Each bread recipe was carefully thought out to ensure that even if the calories were a little higher than a standard loaf of bread, it was still a healthier high protein bread option.
High Protein Bread Vs. White/Wheat Flour Bread
The difference between traditional bread and high protein bread is that there is usually higher fat content when you remove the carbs. This high fat gives adds to the great taste of the bread and leaves you feeling satiated for much longer.
If you are on the paleo diet or are just watching your carbs, any of these loaves should do the trick.
Let’s start the list with one of my favorites:
This high protein bread also has a decent amount of good fats so it’s packed with nutritious calories. It uses almond four instead of traditional wheat flour and it tastes great with some greek yogurt on top.

Last on the list even though it’s not bread is our grain-free waffle recipe. This low sodium breakfast hero is made with almond flour, coconut flour, flax meal, unflavored whey protein powder, baking powder, and egg or egg whites.

Good Fat Vs. Bad Fat
Fat isn’t the enemy when you are on a low-carb diet. In fact, you need fat to help you absorb certain vitamins and minerals. The key is to choose healthy fats that are going to help your body function properly.
Some of our bread loaves are high fat. We know this and are ok with it.
Our upcoming bread ideas include wheat bran and apple fiber. We are working out the shopping list and nutrition facts at the moment.
Fiber Support
If you are trying to eat more fiber in your diet, then you should definitely look into adding fruit and vegetables to every meal. Bread is a low fiber food to eat so be sure to take into account your daily fiber needs.
Just make sure to always check the label on packaged foods you buy to really look at the nutrition facts.
You want to choose a bread that is high in protein, low in carbohydrates, and moderate in fat.
If you are looking for more ideas on how to get started with your diet or what foods you should be eating, then check out the recipes section of our site. We have three specific phases that work with the old Nutrimost diet but you can adapt them to fit into whatever program you are currently following.
As always we wish you the best of luck and we hope you keep up the great work. If you need support please reach out to us.
Until then be sure to eat healthily and eat happily.
