Keto Zucchini Bread with Almond Flour & Nuts

 Keto Zucchini Bread with Almond Flour

Serving - 16 Slices


Keto Zucchini Bread is an easy moist almond flour low-carb keto bread with grated zucchini, walnuts, pecan and cinnamon.


Ingredients :-

  •     1 1/2 cup Grated zucchini packed, all the excess water removed,
  •     2 1/4 cups Almond Flour
  •     2 tablespoons Coconut Flour
  •     3/4 cup Erythritol or xylitol (use 1 cup if you have a very sweet tooth!)
  •     3 teaspoons Baking Powder
  •     1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  •     1/4 teaspoon ginger
  •     1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  •     5 large Eggs beaten
  •     1/2 cup Coconut oil or melted butter
  •     2 teaspoons Vanilla essence
  •     1/2 cup Pecan nuts chopped, keep 1/4 cup for the top
  •     1/2 cup Walnuts chopped

Instructions :-

1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pan with a piece of parchment paper. Slightly oil the paper to make sure the bread doesn't stick to the pan. Set aside.

2. Grate the zucchini finely, skin on, using a food processor or a hand grater. Squeeze out the water from the grated zucchini pressing them with your hands first, then pat dry on kitchen absorbent paper (or clean towel). You must remove all the water from the zucchini or the bread batter may be too moist. Measure the amount of grated zucchini required by the recipe after you dry them. Set aside in a bowl.

3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the almond flour, coconut flour, sugar-free crystal sweetener, baking powder, and spices: cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Set aside.

4. Stir in wet ingredients: beaten eggs, vanilla, and melted coconut oil. Combine for about 1 minute until it forms a consistent cake batter.

5. Stir in grated zucchini (make sure they are dry, no liquid), chopped walnuts, and 1/4 cup chopped pecan nuts as you keep 1/4 cup to decorate the top of the bread.



6. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chopped pecan on top. Slightly press the nuts on top of the bread to make sure they stick to it while baking.

7. Bake on fan-bake mode, in the center rack of the oven, for 50 -70 minutes in total. After 30 minutes add a piece of foil on top of the bread to avoid burning the top of the bread and ensuring the bread cook perfectly inside.

8. After 50 minutes of baking, insert a skewer in the middle of the bread. If the batter sticks a lot to the skewer, it is not ready. Return to the oven with the piece of foil on top and keep baking for another 10 to 20 minutes. It can take up to 70 minutes to be fully baked inside as this is thick bread, be patient, and keep baking until set in the middle. Repeat the skewer trick every 10 minutes to check when ready. It is ready when few to no crumbs stick on the skewer, and the center is not jiggly.

9. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then lift out the pieces of parchment paper to transfer the zucchini bread onto a cooling rack. Wait at least 3 hours or overnight before slicing. It must be fully cool down to avoid the bread to crumble when sliced.


How to store?

Store in the pantry or fridge for up to 4 days, in an airtight container, or freeze zucchini bread slices in a ziplock bag. Defrost the day before.

How to eat zucchini keto bread?

Depression…lifts! - The mood-boosting power of handcrafts

Image
 The Mood-Boosting Power of Handcrafts “Hand-based hobbies release dopamine in the brain, which heightens happiness” —Alton Barron, M.D. “When you use your hands meaningfully—by sewing, knitting or sculpting—you stimulate 60% of the neurons in the largest part of your brain, which releases dopamine, a hormone that helps you feel instantly calm and happy,” says Alton Barron, M.D., co-author of  The Creative Cure: How Finding and Freeing Your Inner Artist Can Heal Your Life . Plus, engaging these neurons lowers levels of cortisol to tamp down anxiety. In fact, British researchers collected data from 3,500 knitters, including how often they knitted and any health conditions they had.  Their findings: 81% of those with depression diagnoses reported that knitting boosted their happiness— significantly higher results than antidepressants! While creative projects like needlepoint and crocheting actively engage your hands for a boost in joy, Dr. Barron says other meaningful tasks...

Blood Sugar Regulation on Keto Lifestyle: Understanding the Benefits and Risks

Blood Sugar Regulation on Keto Lifestyle: Understanding the Benefits and Risks The ketogenic diet, also known as the keto diet, has become increasingly popular in recent years as a weight loss and health-promoting tool. This low-carb, high-fat diet is designed to help the body enter a state of ketosis, in which it burns fat for fuel instead of glucose. While the benefits of keto are numerous, one of the most significant is its ability to regulate blood sugar levels.  In this post, we'll explore how the keto lifestyle can help with blood sugar regulation, as well as some potential risks and considerations to keep in mind. How the Keto Lifestyle Regulates Blood Sugar? One of the primary benefits of the keto lifestyle is its ability to stabilize blood sugar levels. When we consume carbohydrates, our bodies break them down into glucose, which is then transported into our cells and used for energy.  However, if we consume too many carbohydrates or our bodies are unable to properly ...

A Pantry Staple  Cured her Chronic Joint Pain Severe joint pain left Sonya Holland facing a lifetime of prescription meds…until she found the amazing remedy right in her own kitchen! “Not again. I can’t take this anymore,” Sonya Holland groaned as she woke to familiar agonizing pain shooting down her arms and legs. The Palm Springs, California, 71-year-old had been battling ever-worsening aches for months. It had gotten so severe, she recently had to stop working as a massage therapist. This morning, she could barely walk to the bathroom. This won’t do, Sonya thought fiercely. I’ve got to take charge of my health. No More Pain Having had enough, Sonya dragged herself to the doctor, who after running tests, diagnosed her with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system attacks its own tissue. “RA is an incurable illness, but there is medication that can ease the symptoms,” the doctor said.  But when he added that there were dietary and lifest...

How Doctors Speed COVID Recovery - Speedier COVID Recovery - Docs Who Got Sick Share What Worked for Them

Image
How Doctors Speed COVID Recovery While we’re doing all we can to avoid COVID-19, it’s normal to worry about how we’d care for ourselves if we became infected.  That’s why advice from doctors who’ve gotten sick and recovered is invaluable.  Here, their top tips 1. Steam In The A.M. A hot soak first thing followed by Vicks VapoRub helped urgent-care physician Jehanne Julien-Banica, D.O., of New York feel better while she was battling COVID.  “A 15-minute bath calmed the cough that hit when I woke up,” she says.  And applying the rub to her chest eased the burning sensation when she breathed.  Plus, studies show steam reduces the airway inflammation that triggers coughing, while camphor, eucalyptus and menthol in the rub open nasal passages. 2. Sip A Smoothie A body dealing with COVID breaks down muscle for energy to keep its systems running, says Sanjay Dogra, M.D., a pulmonary critical-care specialist in Michigan.  “But getting enough protein build...
