Ingredients

For the Strawberry Swirl:

¾ cup fresh or frozen strawberries, chopped

12 tbsp powdered keto sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)

½ tsp lemon juice

Optional: ¼ tsp xanthan gum to thicken (if berries are very juicy)

For the Loaf Batter:

2 cups almond flour

¼ cup coconut flour

1 tbsp baking powder

¼ tsp salt

½ cup butter, melted (or coconut oil)

½ cup granulated keto sweetener

4 large eggs

⅓ cup unsweetened almond milk (or any keto milk)

1½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Make the strawberry swirl: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine chopped strawberries, powdered sweetener, and lemon juice. Stir occasionally and cook until the strawberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. If the mixture is too juicy, add xanthan gum to thicken. Set aside to cool.

  • Prepare the loaf batter: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with butter or line it with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, combine melted butter, granulated keto sweetener, eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  • Combine the batter and strawberry swirl: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Spoon the strawberry mixture over the batter in dollops, then use a knife or skewer to swirl the strawberry mixture through the batter, creating a marbled effect.

  • Bake the loaf: Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top begins to brown too quickly, cover it with foil and continue baking until done.

  • Cool and serve: Let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve.

Notes

Storage: Store leftover loaf in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.

Freezing: Freeze slices by wrapping them in plastic wrap or parchment paper and storing in a freezer bag for up to 2 months.

Reheating: To reheat, microwave a slice for 20-30 seconds or toast for a crispy exterior.
