I like the wasa crisp bread, light rye. It has a neutral flavor and not too hard. 5 1/2 grams of carbs per slice. I like it with cream cheese and everything bagel seasoning. I bet it would be great with almond butter.

+1 still get the crunch and almond butter. Granny smith’s are the best.

Brussel sprout poster, I wonder if you could use them to make latkes with eggs, and then spread almond butter on those, or thin out the almond butter and dip.
If you don't like the taste of sprouts, zucchini also makes good latkes.
I also like fried cauliflower rice with a lot of eggs in it. You could also add almonds.

Completely not the same thing, and not a vehicle for almond butter, but I make hash browns with shredded brussel sprouts, and they have a crispy crunchiness that is warm and satisfying.

What about one of those low carb tortillas? Make a kind of roll up with the almond butter?

No, it's not GD -- when I'm pregnant I get reactive hypoglycemia, where my body overproduces insulin and tanks my blood sugar. If I'm careful about my glycemic index, my one hour postprandial blood sugar is about the same as it is fasting. If I eat stuff that's too starchy, it's actually lower (and also obviously I feel terrible -- hypoglycemia is very unpleasant). Luckily it vanishes after the baby is born, but it's worse with each kid. Ezekiel bread was enough for me in the past.

Is this a GD thing? If you can’t have a slice of Ezekiel bread without blowing your number, you need to check in with your doctor. A slice of Ezekiel bread is 15g with a lot of fiber.
