Five-Minute Sandwich Bread

Tired of lettuce wraps, messy portobello mushroom buns, or complicated, time-consuming Paleo bread recipes? I know I was! Making a sandwich or a burger isn’t supposed to cost a fortune or take hours, right? Half of the appeal is how quick and easy they are! Enter this Five-Minute Sandwich Bread. With a light, spongy texture and only a handful of ingredients, this microwave bun is ready in less than five minutes (no joke). You might even have all of the ingredients on hand already–and it can be a great way to get rid of leftover eggs or coconut flour when you don’t have enough for larger recipes. This bread doesn’t keep terribly well, so it’s best made as needed in single servings. It can be used as a bun for burgers and sandwiches and also works well as the base for a benedict–it’s mostly-neutral flavor and texture work well in just about any application. It makes a very nice sponge for tasty sauces like the chipotle mayo in the picture, too!

I started the autoimmune protocol at a time when only four other people were writing about it, and over the years, I’ve striven to give you the resources I wish I’d had when I got started.

With a variety of simple, delicious recipes, plenty of leftovers so you don’t spend all your free time in the kitchen, and shopping lists ready to go, all you have to do is follow the plan, then sit down and enjoy your meal!
