KETO LEMON BREAD RECIPE: PERFECTLY MOIST & DELICIOUS
This Keto Lemon Bread recipe reminds me of Starbucks glazed lemon bread, but with a fraction of the carbs.
Years ago when I first started blogging, I was a frugal blogger. In fact, I taught coupon workshops all over the southeast. Back in those days, when I traveled I often ran by Starbucks in airports to grab a piece of their lemon bread before my flights. Of course, this was back when I indulged in way too many carbs. It has been years since I have enjoyed lemon bread, so I thought I would try my hand at making a keto friendly version complete with a delicious lemony glaze.
It took a couple of tries before I perfected this recipe. Experimenting with fewer eggs resulted in a lemon bread that was dry as a dessert and not fit for human consumption. There is a very real reason why you have to use more eggs when baking with keto friendly flours. Unlike fluffy white gluten-filled white flour, keto friendly flours tend to be drier in nature and more absorbent. So, don’t freak out about the six eggs. I promise they are necessary. This Keto Lemon Bread recipe turned out amazingly delicious!
