It&#8217;s highly adaptable, easy, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>very quick<\/em> <\/span>and nutritious \u2014 all without using any grains, flours or starches.

The surprise ingredient there \u2014 which was a revelation to us \u2014 is the cheese. It not only acts as a binder, but replaces the butter or oil used in many recipes. Amazingly, it doesn&#8217;t leave the muffins tasting particularly of cheese, although the flavour is there if you look for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Goat, sheep or cow cheeses work well, as long as they are a hard cheese like a cheddar \u2014 basically, anything that you can grate should do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want the cheese flavour to come to the fore, add a pinch or two of salt and use a strong cheddar or add some parmesan. If you want the cheese flavour to retire into the background, use a mild-cheddar or grated mozzarella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"700\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins.webp\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17868 lazyload\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17868\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins.webp 1600w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins-300x131.webp 300w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins-1024x448.webp 1024w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins-768x336.webp 768w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Cheeses-for-making-muffins-1536x672.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The recipe works equally well with cow, goat or sheep&#8217;s hard cheeses <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is easy to keep all the ingredients you need at hand, ready to go, in the fridge as they typically have a long shelf-life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I recommend making the muffins first (as per the recipe below.)

The mixture rises to about twice its original volume during baking, so depending on the proportions of your tin, it may come out squat or tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only modification to the muffin recipe is to reduce the oven temperature by 20C and increase the bake time by 10 minutes to ensure it cooks through without burning<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a loaf I made which sliced really well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" data-src=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe-1024x614.webp\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17870 lazyload\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe-1024x614.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe-1024x614.webp 1024w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe-300x180.webp 300w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe-768x461.webp 768w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe-1536x922.webp 1536w, https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Small-loaf-made-using-the-grain-free-muffin-recipe.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each slice is only 5cm x 10cm \u2014 a bit smaller than half a normal slice of supermarket &#8220;sliced bread&#8221;. This is ideal for me, as it is much more calorie and nutrient-dense than grain-based breads. Also, this smaller size makes a nice little open sandwich, or accompaniment to a soup or boiled egg, or alongside a simple lunch of cheese and pickled onions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I haven&#8217;t tried making a larger loaf, but should just be a case of multiplying up the quantities in the recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Oxalates_and_Salicylates_in_Nuts\"><\/span>Oxalates and Salicylates in Nuts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nuts can be high in oxalates and salicylates. Excess consumption of oxalates can contribute to kidney stone formation, while high salicylate foods can exacerbate asthma, eczema and some migraines. If you are sensitive to either of these anti-nutrients you need to choose your nuts carefully. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Almonds<\/strong> <em>&#8211; high in salicylates, high in oxalates<\/em><br>Ground almonds are relatively cheap and widely available. They are very low-carb (for a nut) and produce a succulent crumb. Far better nutritionally and gastronomically than any grain-based flour. However, they are high in oxalates and salicylates, so need to be avoided if you are sensitive to these. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cashews <\/strong><em>&#8211; low in salicylates, high in oxalates<\/em><br>One alternative is ground cashew. I have tried this and it works well in the recipe above. Replacing the ground almonds with cashews will raise the carb content of the muffins significantly but could still be suitable for a ketogenic diet, with a marginal ketogenic ratio of 2:1. On the downside, although cashews are low in salicylates, they are unfortunately still high in oxalates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Low oxalate nuts<\/strong> <em>&#8211; low in oxalates, high in salicylates<\/em><br>Coconut, macadamia, pistachio and walnuts are all low in oxalates, but high in salicylates. Also, I have not tried these in the muffin recipe, but you can, and please send me photos and a &#8216;report&#8217; on the results. I&#8217;d love to hear of your creative efforts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Read Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 6<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">min<\/span><\/span>Our favourite super-quick, grain-free, ketogenic buns\/muffins\/bread. <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-button-container\"><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/2023\/09\/19\/grain-free-muffins-our-best-bread-recipe-yet\/\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17846,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_custom_body_class":"","_custom_post_class":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[24],"tags":[1377,175,532,1378,677,679,1381,728,731],"class_list":["post-17842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipes","tag-bread-substitute","tag-breakfasts","tag-gluten-free","tag-grain-free-bread","tag-keto-bread","tag-ketogenic","tag-kitchen-basics","tag-low-carb","tag-lunches","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-33","no-featured-image-padding"],"modified_by":"Keir Watson","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":373,"url":"https:\/\/rosemarycottageclinic.co.uk\/blog\/2013\/01\/20\/almond-hazel-bread\/","url_meta":{"origin":17842,"position":0},"title":"Almond &#038; Hazel Bread","author":"Afifah Hamilton","date":"January 20, 2013","format":false,"excerpt":"This delicious grain-free, low carb bread is easy and reliable.
