FAQs
Is this bread completely zero carb?
This bread is very low in carbohydrates but not completely zero due to natural carbs in yogurt and eggs. It’s an excellent choice for low-carb diets.
Can I use a different type of yogurt?
Greek yogurt is best for this recipe because of its thickness and protein content. Using regular yogurt may result in a wetter batter and different texture.
