    adding chocolate chips
  • Pour into a greased standard loaf pan or cover loaf pan with parchment paper. Keto flours tend to stick easily, so we recommend lining the loaf pan with parchment paper.

  • Bake in a 350-degree oven for approx 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 25 minutes. Once a knife inserted in the middle of the loaf comes out clean, bake about 5 minutes longer. At the 40 minute mark cover the bread with aluminum foil to prevent the top from browning. The baking time will vary from oven to oven as all ovens bake differently. If it seems "wet," it needs to bake a little longer. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes then place on a cooling rack to cool before slicing.

For the icing:

  • Melt butter then add Lakanto Monkfruit Powdered.
  • Pour heavy whipping cream over mixture until it thins out. Can add more or less if needed.
    mixing whipping cream
  • Drizzle over warm bread.
  • Serve and enjoy!
