Paleo Bread. I’ve seen this product on Facebook through Julian Bakery for months now. I was curious, but no way was I going to pay their shipping fees which are really steep (due to the product being shipped fast and frozen).
What is it?
It’s gluten-free, paleo (in some definitions) bread. It comes either made with almond flour or coconut flour.
I stumbled across it at Natural Grocer last week in Cedar Park. $10 a loaf, 16 tiny slices a loaf. Don’t ask me why, but I bought 1 loaf of almond and 1 loaf of coconut.
Stats
Almond is 3 Weight Watchers P+ a slice. The coconut is 1 WW P+ a slice.
Texture
The texture is dense and it’s chewy. The almond more than the coconut. Reminded me of a saturated brown sponge.
Taste
To me the almond was tasteless, dense, and almost in-edible. I seriously had to choke it down.
The coconut was better, but not much. At least I could swallow a bite without coughing/choking on it.
I tried them both toasted, untoasted, grilled. Made a breakfast sandwich, grilled cheese, and a turkey avocado sandwich.
Verdict
Unimpressed. I threw the almond away. It was that bad. More than half a loaf went into the trash.
I kept the coconut to keep working with it, because i’d spent $20 total on bread that was supposed to be fabulous. I read some people were toasting it and breading things with it, but to be honest, I don’t care THAT much about breading anything to spend $10 on a loaf of weird bread, just to toast and grind it!
I won’t be buying either flavor again. It’s pricey and it just plain doesn’t taste good or work well for much of anything. I was skeptical, but this confirmed my suspicion.
That’s just my honest opinion 
Me too. Would love to have a recipe for bread maker using almond flour.
I bought it last week. It sucks.
I love Paleo Almond and if you follow the Paleo Diet then this bread is awesome especially the Paleo Coconut.
Good to know! If I were Paleo, I would not crave bread that much to make it worth it! Plus, by trying to make it edible you’re just adding more calories to it!
OHH this is great to read! I was considering testing it out, but not if i’m going to want to toss it!
It gave me a tummy ache too, which was also not cool
