Lupin Flour Banana Bread

INGREDIENTS

• 2 ½ Cups Almond Flour
• ½ Cup Saladitos Lupin Flour
• 2 ½ Ripes Bananas (mashed)
• 3 Eggs
• ¾ Cup Powdered  Sweetener
• 1 TBSP Baking Powder
• ½ TSP Baking Soda
• 1 TSP Cinnamon
• 1 ¼ TSP Xanthan Gum
• ¼ TSP Salt
• 7 TBSP Salted Butter
• 1 TSP Vanilla Extract
• ½ Cup Keto-Friendly Chocolate Chips
• ½ Cup Walnuts or Pecans (optional)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 180ºC
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, lupin flour, baking soda, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Whisk to combine and set aside.
3. In a second mixing bowl, combine melted butter, mashed bananas, and monkfruit sweetener. Stir well to combine.
4. Add the eggs and vanilla extract to your banana mixture and whisk well until bubbles can be seen at the top of the mixture.
5. Combine both the wet and dry ingredients. Stir to combine until the mixture becomes quite thick.
6. Stir in chocolate chips (and nuts if you are using them).
7. Grease a standard  loaf pan with butter, oil, or ghee and use a spatula to scrape the batter into the pan. Even out the top and sprinkle with a bit of extra granulated sugar or cinnamon.
8. Bake the loaf for ~55-65 minutes. You’ll know your loaf is ready when a tooth pick comes out clean.

TIP: Cover the pan lightly with tinfoil prior to baking and remove halfway to three quarters of the way through if you’d like to prevent the crust from browning too quickly.

1. Let the loaf cool completely in the pan before turning out onto a plate.
2.  Slice, serve, and enjoy your lupin flour banana bread!
