Best Keto Banana Bread (Printable Version)

Moist, tender grain-free loaf with classic banana flavor. Only 4 net carbs per slice, perfect for low carb lifestyles.

# What You Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 2 cups almond flour
02 - 1/4 cup coconut flour
03 - 1/4 cup erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
04 - 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
05 - 1/2 tsp baking soda
06 - 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
07 - 1/4 tsp salt

→ Wet Ingredients

08 - 3 large eggs, room temperature
09 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (or coconut oil)
10 - 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
11 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
12 - 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed (approx. 200 g)

→ Optional Add-ins

13 - 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
14 - 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or grease thoroughly with butter.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until evenly distributed.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until lightly beaten. Add melted butter, almond milk, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
04 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula until just combined—do not overmix or the bread will become dense.
05 - Gently fold in chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips if desired, taking care not to overwork the batter.
06 - Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula to spread evenly and smooth the top surface.
07 - Bake for 45 to 55 minutes until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
08 - Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling.

# Helpful Hints:

01 -
  • You get that genuine banana bread comfort without the sugar crash that usually follows
  • The texture is incredibly moist and tender, nothing like the dense keto breads you might have tried before
02 -
  • Overmixing will make your bread tough, so stop as soon as the ingredients are combined
  • The bread needs to cool completely before slicing or it will crumble and disappoint you
03 -
  • Really ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots give you the best flavor and natural sweetness
  • If the top is browning too quickly, tent it with foil after about 30 minutes of baking
