Keto Banana Nut Bread Recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated low-carb sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, low-carb sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
  4. Add the eggs, melted coconut oil or butter, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir well until a thick batter forms.
  6. Optional: Fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture and flavor.
  7. Transfer the bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
  8. Bake the bread in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
  10. Once completely cooled, slice the Keto Banana Nut Bread into desired portions.
