There are just many low carb bread recipes you can try on a low carb and ketogenic diet. Today we are showing you how to prepare a zucchini bread with coconut flour, peanut flour and walnut.
As we mentioned before in this keto peanut butter recipe, peanut falls in the grey area of keto, which means it’s a personal choice whether to include it in your ketogenic lifestyle or not.
If you don’t want to use peanut flour, check this Zucchini Coconut Bread with Pecan. It doesn’t contain peanut.
This bread can be served as snack, so you are welcome to add some keto sweetener and low carb protein powder to take it to another level.
Instead of walnuts, you can also use black chocolate chips. This will give it a chocolatey flavor.
Let’s Ketofy It!
Preheat the oven to 350F
Combine all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Set aside.
To help to get a fluffy bread, separate the egg whites and yolks. Beat the egg whites using an electric mixer until it forms peaks.
Add the yolks one by one to the mixture while beating. Add vanilla extract and melted butter.
Add dry ingredient mix in and keep mixing for another 3 minutes. Add the shredded zucchini and the chopped walnuts. Mix well.
Grease a 9” rectangular loaf pan with coconut oil or butter and transfer the mixture in.
Bake for about 30 to 45 minutes until cooked inside. Let it cool and slice and serve.
