Healthy Savory Zucchini Bread (Keto)

16

This keto zucchini bread offers a remarkably simple and delicious solution for those seeking a gluten free bread substitute. My family requests this loaf all the time for breakfast or as a side dish with dinner. The key to this recipe is to spread out the zucchini shreds on a platter, salt them and mix them. Spread them out again, allow to release their liquids for 10 minutes then squeeze them all out.

By cleverly utilizing grated zucchini as a primary component, it contributes natural moisture and a subtle earthiness. This keto zucchini bread stays low carb and high in protein. The minimal ingredient list streamlines the baking process, making it incredibly accessible even for novice bakers.

The magic often happens with a base of almond flour, which provides the necessary structure. It lends a rich, nutty flavor to this keto zucchini bread while keeping the loaf entirely gluten-free and low in carbohydrates. Eggs act as a binder, and a natural, keto-friendly sweetener ensures it satisfies your cravings without compromising your dietary goals.

Enjoy this keto zucchini bread plain as a quick breakfast, lightly toasted with a drizzle of olive oil or spread of butter. I top mine with a sunny side up runny egg! You may also like this Healthy Mediterranean Lentil Bread Loaf (GF) or Greek Yogurt Seed Bread (GF).
