Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sweetener (e.g., Lakanto)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup plain yogurt or coconut cream
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 3 eggs (or flax eggs for vegan)
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9×5 loaf pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, granulated sweetener, baking powder, and salt thoroughly to ensure even distribution of leavening and seasoning.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the plain yogurt or coconut cream, lemon juice, eggs or flax eggs, and lemon zest until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  4. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly. Bake for approximately 50 minutes, or until the bread is golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool: Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan to set properly before removing it to prevent crumbling.
  6. Store: Store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 1 day, refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • You can substitute flax eggs for regular eggs to make this recipe vegan-friendly.
  • Using coconut cream instead of yogurt ensures a dairy-free version.
  • Make sure to fully cool the bread before slicing to retain its moist texture.
  • Adjust sweetener according to taste preferences while keeping keto guidelines in mind.
  • Use fresh lemon zest and juice for the best lemon flavor.
