Description

This tender low-carb zucchini bread is lightly sweetened and infused with cinnamon, offering a guilt-free, flavorful treat perfect for snack time or a healthy breakfast option.


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup sweetener or honey substitute

Other

  • 1 cup shredded zucchini (squeezed dry)


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 °F (175 °C) to prepare it for baking the bread.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, cinnamon, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and sweetener or honey substitute until blended. Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until fully combined.
  3. Fold in Zucchini: Gently fold the squeezed dry shredded zucchini into the batter, ensuring it is evenly distributed without overmixing.
  4. Bake: Pour the batter into a lined or greased baking pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bread turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the zucchini bread to cool before slicing into 8 pieces. Optionally, add chopped walnuts or sugar-free chocolate chips before baking for extra texture and flavor.
