Low-Carb Keto Banana Bread
Description
The recipe substitutes typical wheat flour with almond and coconut flours to keep carbohydrates low. Baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt provide leavening and spice. The wet ingredients include coconut oil, almond milk, eggs, and banana extract, which together replace the texture and flavor of bananas without actual fruit. Monkfruit sweetener offers sweetness without added sugars.
Once mixed, the batter sits briefly to allow the coconut flour to absorb moisture, ensuring an even texture. Baking in an 8-inch loaf pan at 350°F for about 50 to 60 minutes yields a golden crust with a soft, moist crumb. Cooling before slicing helps the bread firm up for sturdier cuts.
This bread fits into low-carb and keto diets, satisfying banana bread cravings while reducing carbohydrates. It's suitable for slicing and serving at breakfast or snack time and keeps well sliced and stored.
Ingredients
- 3 cups almond flour 300 grams
- 4 tablespoons coconut flour 32 grams
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2/3 cup Monkfruit sweetener
- 7 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 6 tablespoons almond milk unsweetened
- 4 egg at room temperature, large
- 4 1/2 teaspoons banana extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line the bottom of an 8 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, rubbing the sides with coconut oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together all the remaining ingredients until well combined.
- Stir the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until well mixed. Let stand for 10 minutes for the coconut flour to start absorbing the moisture.
- Pour into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes to an hour.
- Let cool in the pan for 1 hour. Then, gently remove to a cutting board, slice and devour!
