Keto Sweet Potato Bread
Nov 23, 2024
I’ve been making this recipe keto sweet potato bread for a few years, but this year I think I’ve perfected it. This recipe will not disappoint. The sweet potato taste is subtle, but present, because we’re using a whole sweet potato to make three mini loaves. The texture of this quick bread is amazing, especially for a grain free, gluten free baked good.
Spiced with cinnamon and flavored with a bit of maple and orange extracts, it reminds me of my mom’s stove top sweet potatoes. (In fact if you make these, you can use the leftovers to make these mini breads.

This is one of the reasons these kinds of cakes/muffins/breads to have early in the day. The almond flour, coconut flour, eggs and avocado oil help to keep appetite in check.
