One common lament about those deciding to go on the Paleo diet is having to give up bread. But just because you can’t eat what and grains anymore doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy nice slice of bread or two, just as long as it conforms to the Paleo dietary recommendations. Here is our select list of wheat-free, grain-free paleo bread recipes that you can use for sandwiches, toast, or just to enjoy on their own.
Chocolate Swirl Paleo Banana Bread
The best paleo banana bread becomes an extra special treat with the addition of dark chocolate. The bread makes an excellent breakfast with some coffee or tea, or you can enjoy it as your afternoon snack. One thing is for sure – a loaf of this delicious chocolate swirl banana bread won’t last long!
Ingredients
4 ripe bananas, mashed
4 eggs
1/2 cup almond butter
5 tbsp coconut oil, divided
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3 oz. dark chocolate
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a regular loaf pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, add the bananas, eggs, almond butter, 4 tablespoons of coconut oil, and vanilla. Use a hand blender to combine well.
2. Add in the coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Blend into the wet mixture, scraping down the sides with a spatula.
3. Melt the chocolate in a bowl in the microwave along with the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil. Stir to combine.
4. Pour the bread batter into the loaf pan. Top with the melted chocolate and use a knife to swirl the chocolate into the batter. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Place the bread on a cooling rack and allow to slightly cool before slicing, about 15 minutes.
Paleo Tortillas
A blend of egg whites and coconut flour can make a tasty Paleo version of tortillas. Whether used for tacos or quesadillas, this recipe makes about 8 medium tortillas, which are best served right off the stove. Feel free to adjust the spices in the tortillas to your taste preferences.
Ingredients
6 egg whites
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup almond milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Instructions

2. Heat a non-stick skillet to medium-high heat. Coat pan with coconut oil spray. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet, turning the pan with your wrist to help it t=spread out in a thin, even layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes, loosening the sides with a spatula. When the bottom has firmed up, carefully flip over and cook for another 2-3 minutes until lightly browned, then set aside on a plate. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm.
Paleo Zucchini Bread
Zucchini bread is an easy and excellent way to incorporate summer squash into paleo bread baking. The ingredients can be split up into two mini loaves or cooked together in one large loaf. Chocolate chips, raisins, and walnuts can also be incorporated into the moist, flavorful bread if desired.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1 tbsp coconut flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup zucchini, grated
3 eggs
2 tbsp honey
1/2 banana, mashed
1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Squeeze any excess moisture out of the shredded zucchini. Whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, add the eggs, honey, banana, coconut oil, and apple cider vinegar. Use a hand blender to combine. Add the dry ingredients into the wet and stir to combine. Fold in the shredded zucchini.
3. Pour the batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the loaf is set. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Lemon Poppy Seed Bread
This sweet paleo bread is more of a dessert than anything else (but also makes the perfect paleo snack). Bright, zesty lemons add a tart bite and poppy seeds add crunch to the loaf. If you want to add the coconut lemon glaze, let the glaze and the loaf of bread chill in the refrigerator before applying.
Ingredients
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
3 tbsp honey
4 eggs
3 tbsp lemon juice
Zest of 2 lemons
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tbsp poppy seeds

1/4 cup coconut cream
2 tbsp honey
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions

2. In a large bowl, add the coconut oil, honey, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla. Use hand blender to combine. Stir in the coconut flour, baking soda, and salt with a spatula. Fold in the poppy seeds.
3. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes until set. Let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving. Drizzle with lemon glaze if desired.

Paleo Sandwich Bread
Paleo eating lends itself to sandwiches, but many Paleo dieters go without because they think they can’t have bread. But with this bread specifically made to accommodate a sandwich, you can’t go wrong. Just make sure your sandwich is piled high with meat and vegetables, the two staples of the Paleo method of eating. The ingredients list on this bread is amazing, with real wholesome ingredients, and nothing artificial used. Coconut flour gets the call as the wheat replacement, and there’s even flax used so you’re getting a dose of omega-3s.
Quick Paleo English Muffins
If you’re an English muffin lover it won’t be long before you’re hit with a craving and won’t know what to do to stay on track with your Paleo diet. This English muffin recipe does away with the grains and delivers true muffin taste nonetheless. These have all the little holes and crevices you’d expect from any respectable English muffin, and you can feel free to spread organic grass-fed butter over this, or some nice organic ghee for an out of this world totally Paleo experience.
Sweet Potato Bread
Using sweet potatoes as your base ingredients serves a few purposes. First, it makes it so you don’t have to use a wheat or grain source as the main ingredient. Second, it provides plenty of antioxidants and vitamin support from the sweet potatoes, as well as additional fiber. You’ll still want to get a serving of vegetables in with your meal, as this doesn’t really cut it if you’re having a nice portion of meat with it. Think green leafy vegetables in a salad and you’ve got a nice balanced Paleo meal.
Paleo Garlic Bread
Garlic bread goes great with any of the Paleo pastas we recommend. You’ll be blown away by how easy it is to make this, and how few ingredients it takes. You’ll also likely be pleased to see that it’s all natural ingredients with nothing artificial added, right down to using actual garlic for the garlic flavor. It’s amazing how many commercial foods have garlic flavor but don’t actually include any real garlic.
Grain-Free Sandwich Bread
Getting the grains out is pretty much the top priority when you make a bread that is Paleo approved. That’s what we’re seeing here is the use of coconut flour instead of wheat-based flour. You’re going to get a milky taste from this because they’ve used almond milk, and a creamy taste because there’s cashew butter. This should give the bread a smoothness that you won’t find with other breads on the list, which might make it preferable to some, and others may prefer the other types made out of almond flour or that contain flax meal.
Raisin Bread
This raisin bread will have you wondering if it really is Paleo, or if you’ve just cheated on your diet program. But no worries, everything checks out and you can eat this in moderation just like anything else dubbed acceptable. With ingredients like sweet potatoes, coconut flour, eggs, butter, and raisins, how can you go wrong? She’s managed to exclude all of the things that give the body a hard time in regards to digesting and processing, and replaced them with items that are known to be easy to digest and absorb.
Herby Sandwich Bread
You don’t always have to have ordinary bread when it comes to Paleo bread, and this recipe lets you have focaccia bread, which can really open the doors for a lot of gourmet sandwiches. Picture some nice organic roasted turkey breast resting between a few slices of focaccia, and some nice grilled vegetables to top it off. That’s the sort of meal that will leave you totally satisfied, and won’t put a dent in your waistline. The use of flaxseed meal, almond flour, whole eggs, and Extra Virgin Olive oil keeps you on the approved foods list and results in zero guilt.
