Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 large banana mashed
  • 2 tablespoon unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon banana extract
  • 1 ½ cup fine almond flour
  • 2 tablespoon coconut flour
  • cup granulated sweetener
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • teaspoon salt
  • cup chopped walnuts

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 350F. Spray the inside of an 8-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl add the eggs, banana, butter, and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
  • In a separate medium bowl add the almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
  • Stir in the chopped nuts.
  • Transfer the batter to the loaf pan and if desired, top with additional nuts.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the center is cooked through.

Notes

  • When testing this recipe, I found that if I baked it uncovered, the top became overcooked before the center of the loaf was set. Covering for the first half of the bake time helps it to cook evenly.
  • Nuts can be left out, or use chopped pecans or sugar free chocolate chips in place of the walnuts.
  • Your favorite low carb granulated sweetener can be used in this recipe. I suggest Lakanto or Swerve.
  • You can wrap leftovers with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container. The bread will last for 2-3 days on the counter, and maybe a bit longer if stored in the fridge.
  • Freeze banana bread loaves for up to 3 months. You can also store slices of this bread, individually wrapped, in the freezer for the same amount of time.
