Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sweetener (erythritol or preferred keto-friendly sweetener)
  • Zest of 2 lemons
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (optional, for slight rise)
  • 1/4 cup melted butter or coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, sweetener, salt, and baking powder. Stir well to evenly distribute all components.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and melted butter or coconut oil until well blended.
  4. Make the Batter: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined to form a smooth batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
  5. Pour into Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use fresh lemon zest and juice for the best flavor impact.
  • Sweeteners such as erythritol, monk fruit, or allulose work best for keto compliance.
  • If you prefer a more lemony punch, add a teaspoon of lemon extract.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze slices for longer storage.
  • Adding baking powder is optional but helps the bread rise slightly and be less dense.
