Ingredients for Low Carb Bread
  • 1 large carrot ca. 130–150 g, peeled and finely grated
  • 150 g sunflower seeds
  • 70 g ground flaxseeds geschrotete Leinsamen
  • 50 g sesame seeds
  • 50 g puffed amaranth
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 egg whites egg whites (size M)
  • 250 g low-fat quark Magerquark

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Grater
  • Wooden spoon
  • Cooling Rack

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 200°C top/bottom heat or 180°C fan. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: Peel and finely grate the carrot to add natural sweetness and moisture.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, mix sunflower seeds, ground flaxseeds, sesame seeds, puffed amaranth, and salt.
  4. Step 4: Add the egg whites, quark, and grated carrot to the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly with a wooden spoon. Let the dough rest for about 10 minutes to allow the seeds to absorb moisture.
  5. Step 5: Shape the dough into an oval loaf about 20 cm long and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Score the surface two to three times to prevent cracking during baking.
  6. Step 6: Bake the bread for about 50 minutes in the preheated oven. After baking, remove and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing to keep it moist.

Notes

Variations: Substitute carrot with zucchini (well drained) or replace amaranth with ground almonds or hazelnuts for a nuttier flavor. Add fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme for a Mediterranean touch. Sprinkle pumpkin seeds or flaxseeds on top for extra crunch.
Storage: Keep bread fresh in a bread box or cotton bread bag to allow airflow. Refrigerate for 4–5 days or freeze sliced portions up to 3 months. Reheat slices in toaster or oven.
