Keto Ragi Bread – Low-Carb, High-Fibre, Gluten-Free Recipe

Last updated on January 5, 2026

Bread on a Keto diet? Sounds too good to be true to you, right? But it’s possible! However, don’t think it’s another one of those almond flour-loaded, egg-heavy recipes. It’s a gluten-free, high-fibre, low-carb Keto Ragi Bread recipe. Made from finger millet flour (Ragi) and psyllium husk, this bread is a perfect blend of Keto-friendly ingredients and Indian supergrains. It is soft and slightly nutty, making it a wonderful treat for those craving a read bread without consuming carbs unnecessarily.

I personally love the earthy flavor of ragi – a staple in many Indian homes for centuries. Ragi is rich in iron, calcium, and complex carbs. This makes it a healthier alternative to wheat flour. But the real twist in the recipe comes with psyllium husk that’s gut-friendly and aids in weight management.

Whether you are looking for a sandwich base, a hearty dinner roll, or need something warm to relish with butter and soup, bookmark this recipe to align with your Ketogenic Lifestyle.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup lukewarm water
• 2 tbsp psyllium husk
• 1 cup ragi (finger millet flour)
• 1 tsp dry yeast
• 1 tsp stevia (or the keto-friendly sweetener of your choice)
• 1 tbsp oil (olive or coconut)
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
• Milk for brushing (use almond milk for dairy-free)
• Sesame or other seeds for topping (sunflower, flax, or chia also work great!)

Instructions:

1. Take a large bowl to mix lukewarm water, dry yeast, and stevia. Let this mixture sit for 15 minutes until yeast activates.
2. Next, add oil, salt, psyllium husk, vinegar, and ragi flour to the mixture.
3. Keep stirring all the ingredients to form a dough.
4. Let it sit for 1 hour by covering the bowl – until the dough doubles in size.
5. Apply some oil to your palms and start forming small buns out of the dough.
6. Keep the buns on a baking tray and brush their tops gently with milk while sprinkling sesame seeds or your favorite seeds.
7. Cover and let it rise again for another 30 to 40 minutes.
8. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F), place baking tray into it.
