1/3 cup erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup almond milk (unsweetened)
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Lemon Glaze:
1/4 cup powdered erythritol
1–2 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it well.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, almond milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
- For the glaze, mix powdered erythritol with lemon juice until smooth, then drizzle over the cooled bread.
Notes
Sweetener Options: You can substitute erythritol with other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit or stevia, adjusting to taste.
Dairy-Free Option: Use dairy-free butter or coconut oil and unsweetened coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. The bread can also be frozen for 2-3 months.
Flavor Boost: For extra lemon flavor, add more zest or lemon juice to the batter or glaze.
