This keto banana bread is so soft, moist, tender and has an intense banana flavour. Also, it is sugar-free, thanks to the erythritol, which has no impact on blood sugar. The crunchy walnut and delicious chocolate chips give the low carb banana bread a sweet kick.
Preferably, I use real bananas instead of the banana flavour because the later doesn't give a real banana taste. Additionally, bananas give the bread moistness and tenderness.
To Make the Sugar-Free Banana Bread, You Will Need:
Almond flour: For the best result, sift it.
Eggs: Use eggs in room temperature.
Ripe bananas: They have a very sweet taste and easy to mash.
Erythritol: You can use any alternatives like Swerve or Lakanto monk fruit.
Ground cinnamon: It gives a delightful taste and smell to the banana bread.
Baking powder: Using it is essential for rising the bread.
Vanilla extract: A good quality vanilla extract makes a difference in taste.
Butter: It can be either softened or melted.
Chopped walnut: In my opinion, walnuts are the best nuts to use in baking banana bread.
Chocolate chips: Use Sugar free dark chocolate chips.
Are Bananas Keto-Friendly?
Bananas are high in carbs. So it will not be a keto-friendly if you eat the whole banana loaf pan. In this low carb banana bread recipe, I use two small ripe bananas for the entire banana bread loaf pan. So every slice will have almost a bite of a banana which is not much in carbs. So you can enjoy the real taste of banana and stay on keto diet at the same time.
