- 3/4 C Coconut Flour
- 1/2 C Lakanto Gold or sweetener of your choice
- 3 Tb Whey Protein Isolate
- 1 tsp. Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
- 1 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
- 6 Eggs
- 8 Tb. Butter melted
- 1 Tb. Fiber Syrup Gold
- 1 medium Zucchini shredded
- 1/2 tsp. Salt
- 1-2 tsp. Banana Flavoring
- 1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
Ingredients

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combined the shredded zucchini and the 1/2 tsp of salt. Set it aside. (The salt helps pull out the extra water that is in the zucchini)
- In a separate bowl, combine the Coconut flour, Lakanto Gold Sweetener, Whey Protein Isolate, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon.
- Using a mixer, combine the eggs, fiber gold syrup, and melted butter.
- Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Add the Banana flavoring and vanilla.
- In a clean kitchen towel, wring the zucchini removing as much of the liquid as possible. Stir the zucchini into the batter.
- Pour the batter into a lightly greased loaf pan. I prefer to use coconut oil spray. Bake for 45-60 minutes. You will want the bread to be baked all the way through, so use a toothpick to test the center of the bread.
- HELPFUL TIP!!! Once the bread has been in the oven for 20 minutes, place a piece of foil over the top of the bread. This will help with allowing the bread to bake more evenly and not burn on the top.
- Once the bread is baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes. Remove the bread from the pan and cool on a wire rack. (If you can wait that long....we couldn't! We had to dive right in!)

Can I just say one of the down sides to the Ketogenic Diet is the lack of some of my favorite fruits. Banana is one of those things that I REALLY miss. The family was missing banana bread. So I challenged myself to coming up with a banana bread for the family. I didn’t really know how I was going to tackle this but, I think I have a winner. If you are not a fan of banana bread, you can leave out the banana flavoring and up the vanilla flavoring to 1 1/2 tsp instead of the 1/2 tsp of vanilla the recipe originally calls for.
