There are so many low carb bread options for you to choose on a keto diet. Each type of bread has its own unique flavor.

You may have heard or tried zucchini bread or coconut bread but have you ever tried making them together? We make this sweet bread as a snack that will go well with tea and coffee. You can make it a low carb side for dinner by removing the sweetener.

Today we are showing you our low carb Zucchini Coconut Bread. This recipe uses coconut flour and freshly grated zucchini which provides an additional dose of fiber.

To improve the texture, add more consistency and to increase protein intake, we use 1 scoop of low carb protein powder. This nutritious bread will keep you full. Every once in a while, we love adding protein powder to keep us satiating.

You can also go with collagen protein powder, it’s great for hair, skin, nail and digestion too. Another good news is that collagen protein is heat stable, and sort of tasteless. We’ll be making more recipes with collagen protein in the future.

To add even more flavor, you can add chopped pecan or peanut, or coconut flakes. You can explore other options to make it flavorful such as adding cinnamon or lemon zest.

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Wash the zucchini very well and grate it with a hand grater. Add a little bit of salt in the shredded zucchini. Put it on a colander and squeeze it to get rid of the excess water and moisture. We’ll use about 1/2 cup of grated and drained zucchini for this recipe.

Making the dry mixture: In a bowl, mix baking powder, sweetener, coconut flour and protein powder.
