Default Speaking of bread

I've been reading LC bread recipes for several days. Every time I find one, someone else emails that it isn't very good and suggests another. Can you steer me to reasonably good recipe that looks similar to bread and possibly has a similar taste? I use a bread machine when possible but don't mind making it myself.

Thanks for the "roll" recipe.

I just clicked in here this morning to check out some recipe ideas, and when I saw the one about the "egg bread" I came to a screeching halt! We, (my DH and I) started on the Atkins induction on 1/11, and we have been doing very well on it so far, but we sure do miss certain things -- such as a sandwich or piece of toast now and then. We are definitely going to try this egg bread! Thanks so much for sharing. We too are from Montana. We live over at the lower end of the very beautiful Flathead Lake, at Polson. We love our Mission Mountain Range and all the greenery over here. Our weather is much milder usually, (than most other parts of Montana) due to the huge lake effect. Thanks again for sharing "the recipe".

It seems such a shame to waste the egg yolks though. Isn't it possible to make this recipe with three whole eggs? The yolks don't contain carb anyway, just good amega 3 fatty acids. Otherwise, I guess you could use the yolks as a face mask..))

Has anyone found a good way to store these yet? Seems that every thing tried has turned out not to be so good.

I only make a half a batch (I'm the only person in my home that eat's them) and I place a piece of wax paper between each 'slice' (after they cool completely) before putting them in the zip-loc. I do NOT zip it closed. This works well for just a couple days (which is why I only make up 6 at a time). Blessings, Karen

This is wonderful, just got my first batch out of the oven. Had to try them as soon as they got out, tried the first one with a touch of sf jam and cream. MMMM perfect for those devonshire tea cravings. I am now eating a silverside and mustard sandwich, at last something to spread the mustard on. My kid's smelt them and are now in the kitchen making their own sandwiches. DD told me they were very easy to eat. I don't think I'll be having any storage problems.

Cool Let me show you some pictures!

Hi everyone!

Well at 2am in the morning I decided to give this stuff a try, boy does it look like bread and feels like bread, it tastes not too much like bread but maybe that could be fixed.

Be warned however that this "bread" could be kinda heavy on your stomach (its pure egg!! or maybe because its too late here?).

Anyway it was good, trouble is it sticks to everything!!

Here are some pics I took from my midnight cooking endeavours:

Hi Tony,

Thank you very much for the pictures, I haven't tried this recipe yet but was always curious as to what it was supposed to look like.

I made some before. I just spread it out on a large baking tray and hoped. It tastes very eggy, but I did lose count of how many eggs went in. It still tastes good though. I think I will be making more of this.

Thank you

Wink Egg McMuffins

Was watching "Good Eats" on Food Network and he was making English Muffins. What he did was open both ends of a regular size tuna can. He did six. He had an electric griddle. This is what he did.
1. Heated to medium
2. sprayed with Pam
3. placed the rings on the grill
4. filled rings 3/4 way
5. place the lids from the cans on top
6. cooked until golden brown
7. remove lid
8. spray griddle with Pam
9. flipped ring
10. let cook until golden brown
11. English Muffins

Don't know if this will work with this or not.
Good Luck.
Tony

Question

It can be eaten during induction because there is no flour in it.
There is only 1 carb per slice if it makes 12 "slices".

Basic Recipe:

6 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
4 egg yolks
3 ounces softened cream cheese
pinch of salt
Beat egg whites & cream of tartar until VERY stiff. Turn bowl upside down & if the whites don't slide, they are stiff enough.

In a small bowl mix together the other ingredients. Gently fold the yolk into the whites using a spatula.

Generously spray a couple of cookie sheets with pam.

Spoon out mixture into piles on cookie sheets. I spread the mixture out to about the size of a slice of bread. Don't get it too thin or it will be too crisp. I usually get 10-12 "slices" depending on the size of the eggs.
Bake at 300 degrees about 35 minutes. They will be lightly browned.
Using a spatula, remove them to a wire rack to cool. When cool, put them in a ziplock bag and store in refrigerator. Make some holes in the bag so they won't get soggy.
We eat them with hamburgers instead of buns. They are GREAT!


undefined Hi, How do you spoon out the mixture into piles??? Can i just drop a spoonful like what i do for cookie mixture? Will they spread when they cook? or i need to use the spatula to spread them out

I've made this "bread" twice now. It's great with cheesburgers and ham & cheese.

Today, I made grilled cheese and bacon with it and it was TERRIFIC! I added some pepperoni "chips" and it made a great lunch.

I've recently bought Atkins Quick Bake Mix and I've substituted it in a regular tortilla recipe. When I was done, it looked okay but tasted awful. I can't wait to try this recipe to make bread.

Does anyone know a different recipe to make tortillas?
