A low carb baking flour recipe specially formulated for sweet treats.
Seems like everyone is baking a lot lately! Sure – it’s a great way to pass the time while we’re all staying home these days – plus who doesn’t enjoy some homemade, freshly-baked foods to eat?!
My husband Jack is no exception – and he’s been spending some extra time in the evenings, experimenting with different keto and low carb baking recipes.
If you’ve made this popular keto bread recipe of ours, then you already know that we’ve been able to recreate a keto bread that has close to the same texture as a regular, higher carb loaf of bread!
But unfortunately, that same ‘flour’ mixture doesn’t translate quite as well to sweets like cookies – so he came up with this Low Carb Baking Flour, specially geared toward baking cookies and other sweet treats.
What is Low Carb Baking Flour?
Our baking flour is a combination of some low carb ingredients including oat fiber, almond flour, golden flaxseed meal, psyllium husk powder, and xanthan gum. (We’ve linked to the brands we use, purchased from Amazon. But many of these products can be found at your local supermarket. Once you have them on hand, you can use them in lots of other low carb recipes.)
Combined together and used in recipes like this one, our Low Carb Baking Flour helps give baked goods a light and tender texture.
Plus, each cup of the baking flour has only 5.2 net carbs so you are starting any recipe from a good, lower carb count. This baking flour is also gluten free.
What recipes can I make with this Low Carb Baking Flour?
We’ll be sharing a number of cookie recipes in the coming weeks that use this low carb baking flour – starting with this Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies recipe.

Check your nutritional info. You show fiber being higher than carbs which would result in zero net carbs but your notes indicate 5 net carbs in one cup…

Thank you Barbara!

what can I use to replace flax
Martha says
Without testing an entirely new recipe, I don’t have a suggestion for you. Sorry I can’t be more help.
Blade Dark says
Is there a substitution for the oat flour?
Martha says
No – not without testing a completely new recipe for you.
