# What You Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 2 cups almond flour

03 - 1/4 cup erythritol or preferred keto sweetener
04 - 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
06 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

→ 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 mixing 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 blended. Add melted butter, almond milk, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
04 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent dense texture.
05 - Fold in chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips if desired, distributing evenly throughout the batter.
06 - Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top surface with a spatula for even baking.
07 - Bake for 45 to 55 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean.
08 - Let bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and transfer to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing for clean cuts.
# Expert Hints:
01 -
- It bakes up incredibly moist with that tender crumb you thought keto bread couldnt achieve
- The banana flavor comes through beautifully while keeping your carb goals intact
02 -
- The bread continues cooking while cooling, so removing it when slightly underdone is better than dry
- Room temperature ingredients prevent the coconut flour from absorbing too much moisture and turning gummy
03 -
- Weigh your bananas, as size varies wildly and affects both carb count and moisture balance
- Let the bread cool completely before storing to prevent condensation from making it soggy
