Keto Bread Loaves Bread is probably the number one most missed food on a ketogenic diet, and for good reason. You need it for sandwiches, french toast, and my favorite snack, peanut butter spread on bread! Whether you like it savory or sweet we have all the keto breads you will need in one place. Here are our favorites:

Savory: Best Keto Bread Cheesy Garlic Bread (Megha’s Favorite) Coconut Flour Bread (if you’re nut free!)

Sweet: Blueberry Pound Cake Low Carb Pumpkin Bread Cinnamon Ricotta Cake (can easily be turned into a loaf!)

Make It Moist Keto baking can be tricky, but if you’re someone who loves to bake and wants to learn we have a great Keto Baking 101 course offered on JoinTheCurve.com.

It took us a while to master it, but once you a get a feel for keto flours, sweeteners and the right ratios it’s a breeze! I’ll share a couple tips that will make this loaf the perfect moistness.

1. Combining almond flour and coconut flour gives the final product just the right texture. Not too crumbly and not so moist that it doesn’t cook all the way through.

2. Zucchini drained and squeezed to add an extra level of moistness without any extra wet ingredients. If you don’t squeeze out the zucchini enough it can leave you with a soggy loaf.

3. Enough baking powder to give this loaf rise. Too little will leave you with a flat, under cooked loaf and too much will leave a bad after taste in the final product!

Bake It Just Right

Bake time can also be a tricky thing to figure out not only because all oven temps vary highly, but because keto flours can easily burn. This chocolate chip zucchini bread in particular bakes best at a lower temp for a longer period of time. If you wanted to crank the heat up to save time you would end up with a burnt top and uncooked middle.

With the extra moisture from the drained and squeezed zucchini low and slow is the way to achieve a moist, perfectly cooked loaf. Make sure you keep an eye on the loaf starting at about 40 minutes to ensure it isn’t burning.

Tip: no matter what you are baking the toothpick test is always a sure way to make sure you’re baked good isn’t under cooked. Stick a clean toothpick into the center and if it comes out clean you are good to pull it out!

Cool And Slice Any baked good, especially keto ones need enough time to cool before transferring and slicing.

Why? Because they crumble easily straight from the oven. The key to this chocolate chip zucchini bread is to let it cool all the way or for at least 20 minutes before flipping it out and serving it up!

Any sooner and it will fall apart.

Walnut Chocolate Chip Zucchini Bread If you like you’re dessert loaves on the sweeter side we would highly recommend you up the sweetener on this recipe! Instead of 2 tbsp of erythritol, I would use 1/3 cup. If you are like us, however, and enjoy a subtly sweet dessert then we’ve given you the perfect ratio of erythritol to stevia. This chocolate chip zucchini loaf is sweet, moist and will allow you to relive you pre-keto dessert days in all of its glory!
