Perfect for breakfast, snacking, or dessert, this easy recipe is a go-to for anyone eating low carb but still craving comfort food.

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 3 tbsp butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp Stevia concentrated powder
  • 1/3 cup low-carb granulated sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit)
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, Stevia, and granulated sweetener.
  3. In a food processor or mixing bowl, blend mashed banana, eggs, melted butter, coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until well combined. Fold in walnuts if using.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Make muffins: Bake in a muffin tin for 18–20 minutes.
  • Nut-free: Omit walnuts or replace with sunflower seeds.
  • Add flavor: Add cinnamon, nutmeg, or sugar-free chocolate chips.
  • No xanthan gum? Use psyllium husk or chia seed gel instead.
  • Dairy-free option: Use coconut oil instead of butter.
