If you love fresh, homemade bread but just don't have the time it takes to make it, then this may be the bread recipe for you. For those of us who crave a bit of warm bread every now and then but just can't commit to a sourdough starter or other time-consuming bread recipes, magic bowl bread just may be the answer. Magic bowl bread is what I call making a bowl of bread with minimal ingredients and in mere minutes. And this way of making bread is as nutritious as it is delicious. The high-protein bowl of bread recipe with garlic and chives is quick and delish!

After making this first magic bowl bread recipe, I started thinking of other ingredient combinations to add even more flavor. Turns out that garlic and chives (check out the health benefits of chives) is a winning flavor combination for this savory bowl bread. The magic bowl bread recipe makes a single serving of healthy homemade bread in only about five minutes. I know it sounds too good to be true, but it's not.

Making this bowl of bread is easy, nutritious and delicious. Made with just six nourishing ingredients that are mixed together in one small bowl, this simple bread recipe has changed the way I think about making bread. Made with almond flour, the bread is naturally gluten-free and contains protein and fiber (check out the health benefits of almond flour and the health benefits of fiber).

This magic bread recipe goes from a bowl to a serving plate in only about five minutes because it cooks in the microwave. It's so easy – here's how it works. First, you gather the wholesome ingredients: an egg, almond flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder and fresh chives. (You can add chia seeds, flaxseeds and/or sliced almonds, but they're optional.) Next, you combine the ingredients in a small, microwave-safe bowl (such as a cereal or soup bowl). Lastly, you microwave the mixture for 90 seconds. Ta-da, a serving of flavorful bread in just minutes and with very little effort!

Serve this magic bowl bread recipe however you'd use regular bread: toasted with butter for breakfast, sliced in half as a sandwich for lunch, alongside your favorite mains as a side dish with dinner, with a cool beverage as an energizing snack, etc. There's no wrong way to enjoy this simple garlic and chives bread.
