Dixie Carb Counters White Bread

Right off, I’m going to say that this is hands-down the best low carb white bread I’ve had so far. To be fair, I haven’t tried all the options that are out there, but the price and taste on this bread are excellent and I plan to buy it again and again.

This is a mix, so you need to add eggs, butter, and water to it, but that’s about it. You have the option to make it with whole eggs, 5 of them, or the equivalent amount of egg whites or a combination. If you use all eggs, as I did, then your bread is golden color. If you use only egg whites, the bread will be a white bread. As soon as I mixed in the liquid ingredients, the bread started to puff up in the bowl, meaning it was rising. I put it in a standard 9×5-inch loaf pan and popped it into the oven at the designated temperature. The bread rose beautifully and was a deep golden brown when I pulled it from the oven. I immediately cut off an end piece, buttered it, and savored the taste of this bread. It’s terrific!

It’s not quite like a yeast bread, but the flavor is excellent, the texture is perfect and it’s study enough to hold up to sandwiches and peanut butter and jam. (See photo below.) Best of all, it’s only 2 net carbs per slice when divided into 24 slices. It’s a little more if you want thicker bread. I see no reason you couldn’t add a little sugar substitute, cinnamon and reduced sugar craisins to the batter to make this a a low carb craisin loaf if you’d like or omit the craisins and just add the sugar substitute and cinnamon to make cinnamon bread. I’m thinking you could even divide this into two dozen cupcake molds and make small rolls. Just cook them between 10 and 15 minutes until they are done. I definitely plan to experiment with this bread, so check back on my blog to see what ways I can use it successfully.

At $7.79 from Netrition.com a pack to make one loaf, ($9.99 from Dixie direct) it may seem a little pricey, but to get a really good tasting loaf of low carb bread, it isn’t that bad. You can freeze it in serving portions so you don’t waste any of the bread. I’ve previously made and reviewed their Rye Bread and Multi-grain & Flax Bread Mixes and they are also excellent when it comes to taste and texture, but for white bread lovers, this is the one. It is worth the money and it’s easy to make.

So this bread definitely gets five cooking spoons from me and from my roomie. We both indulged on peanut butter and low carb jam toast this Christmas morning.
