The paleo sandwich bread so many of you have requested is finally here!
I’ve been working on this bread on and off for the past month.
The most recent loaf finally satisfied my craving for soft, fluffy “white” sandwich bread that’s perfect for everything from BLT’s to almond butter & jelly to bacon egg breakfast sandwiches!
It wasn’t the easiest road to get to the final loaf, though, I had several fails and disappointments over the past few weeks.
Too moist, too crumbly, not enough rise, too dense – you name it – pretty much every baking issue was experienced with this loaf of paleo bread!
Getting the Perfect Texture for This Paleo Bread
Of course, it’s all a learning experience that I’ve come to value because it teaches me over and over again about grain free and paleo baking – specifically, how the flours work and don’t work!
My first loaf was all wrong – too moist, dense, and “eggy” to call it a sandwich bread, and, honestly I wound up tossing the whole thing.
From there, I made a few changes that led to much improvement.
I increased the almond flour and tapioca flour, replaced an egg with an egg white and used homemade paleo baking powder along with baking soda for the rise.
Baking with Grain Free Paleo Flours
The bread from my second experiment rose so much better.
But, in my opinion it was still too dense and moist to really function as a sandwich bread, plus it didn’t have the stretchy, bendy quality needed for a good sandwich.
To remedy this, I replaced another egg with a egg white, added more tapioca, AND a tablespoon more of coconut flour. However, the extra coconut flour was a mistake in hindsight!
For those of you unfamiliar with coconut flour, it’s VERY dense and can create a dry, crumbly texture if too much is added and/or if there isn’t enough liquid/eggs to balance it.
My third loaf was pretty good, but also crumbled too much for my liking.
I was SO close though, so of course I had to make at least one more loaf to try to get it right!
The Perfect Grain Free and Paleo Sandwich Bread
Ultimately, it was the fifth loaf that finally felt right to me.
The rise was good, the texture just perfect for sandwiches – light, fluffy, and “bendy” enough to stand up to spreading, cutting, holding, etc.
You know, all the things you need to do when you’re making and eating a sandwich!
Now, since we’re still dealing with a grain free paleo bread, it isn’t exactly like a loaf of wonder bread, of course.
I only say that so you have realistic expectations and aren’t expecting magic here, but rather grain free baking science at its best!
Compared to a traditional sandwich bread made with white flour and yeast, this paleo sandwich bread is still more dense, less fluffy, and has less stretch.
This is simply the reality of paleo baking due to the ingredients we’re using that come entirely from real, healthy food.
How to Store Paleo Sandwich Bread
However, this paleo sandwich bread also happens tome delicious both in flavor and texture, toasts well, stores well and freezes well too.
After completely cooling, wrap the bread tightly and store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
You can freeze it for at least a month wrapped tightly in plastic. Just thaw in the refrigerator before using it.
Ideas For Serving Paleo Sandwich Bread
This easy bread is free of gluten, grains, dairy, sugar, soy, and the prep time of just 10 minutes!
For the photos here I made a simple almond butter and jelly sandwich, but I’ve since used it for breakfast sandwiches and with cold cuts for the kids.
It’s a versatile bread that you can spread anything on, toast and dip in your eggs, or even make French toast with!
And of course avocado toast with fried eggs 🙂
If you’ve been searching for a good simple paleo bread, you’re going to love this recipe!
I hope you’re all ready to get started because I am FOR SURE starting to crave a sandwich now – let’s GO!

Cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 20 mins, then lift the loaf from the pan holding the sides of the parchment paper and continue to cool on the rack until fully cooled.
