Instructions

  1. Preheat & Line: Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Line a 9 x 4inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Butter, Sweetener & Eggs: In a large bowl mix the melted butter, erythritol and eggs until well combined.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently mix with a spatula until fully incorporated.
  4. Add Juice & Zest: Add the lemon juice and lemon zest, mixing until combined.
  5. Fold in Blueberries: Finally, fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Pour Batter into Pan: Pour the batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle some blueberries on top if desired.
  7. Bake Until Golden: Bake for 45 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. If you notice that the top of the loaf is turning brown, tent the pan with aluminum foil to prevent the top from burning or browning too much.
  8. Cool Before Removing: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then remove it and let it finish cooling on a rack before slicing.

Notes

Almond Flour: For the best results, make sure to use blanched almond flour (flour made by processing blanched almonds with their skins off), as opposed to almond meal (processed whole almonds with their skins on), to ensure a lighter texture.

Erythritol: I used erythritol for sweetening this almond flour bread, but you may also use granulated monkfruit sweetener, or regular white sugar, cane sugar or light brown sugar if you prefer.

Eggs: Eggs are necessary for binding the ingredients together, so make sure to include them in. I do NOT recommend substituting them with anything.

Lemon Juice & Zest: For the best flavor, make sure to use fresh lemon juice and freshly grated lemon zest.

Baking powder: Baking powder is the only leavening agent used to help the batter rise, so definitely make sure to add it in.

Butter: I used dairy-free butter to keep this recipe dairy-free. If you are not lactose-intolerant, feel free to use regular butter instead.

Blueberries: Since this is a recipe for blueberry bread, blueberries are a key ingredient. You may use either fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries.

Storing: To store, wrap this almond flour lemon blueberry bread in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To freeze, wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Let the frozen loaf thaw in the refrigerator before slicing.
