I love writing easy keto recipes for you, and this Keto Blueberry Lemon Bread recipe is as simple as it gets.

When I went on a Keto Diet, I knew I’d need treats because I don’t believe in deprivation. So, I created Keto Blueberry Lemon Bread and wrote Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry.

This easy keto bread recipe is perfect for dunking in my Dandelion Root Coffee which is not only caffeine-free but a fabulous liver cleanser. Talk about win-win!

What to Eat With Keto Bread?

Low-Carb Blueberry Lemon Bread is delicious toasted and topped with butter or ghee, then smothered in my Low-Carb Plum Jam.

Keto Dessert with Stevia

I haven’t experimented with using other sweeteners in place of stevia in this bread recipe so not sure how that would work, but if you do experiment please let me know how it goes. If you’re looking for more keto desserts with stevia check out my Mint Chocolate Chip Fat Bombs.

To find out why I use stevia in my recipes rather than other keto sweeteners, check out What’s the Best Sweetener for the Keto Diet.

Egg White Protein Powder Recipes

For best results follow the Keto Blueberry Lemon Bread recipe and use all of the ingredients. I’m often asked if the egg white protein powder is necessary and in fact it is.

To store Keto Blueberry Lemon Bread, let cool overnight, wrap in a paper towel, place it in a ziploc bag, and refrigerate for up to 1 week. I haven’t tried freezing this bread so not sure how long it would keep in the freezer.

I’ve loved bagels ever since I was a little girl, so I had to create a gluten-free bagel recipe my boys could enjoy too. My husband says this Keto Bagels recipe is the perfect vehicle for cream cheese and lox, but we also use it for egg sandwiches.

    I see in your description that you had not placed extra in the freezer. I made your recipe and placed them in 3 smaller pans instead of one big one. I cooked for a little more than 20 minutes until the tootpick came out pretty clean. I prepared them for the freezer the way I think you mention in other breads; let cool one hour in pan, pre-slice into smaller pieces, wrap with a paper towel, place each loaf in a ziploc bag and keep in freezer until needed. I take out about 4 small pieces and place butter on them and it is delish! The rest I am not eating stay frozen, until needed.
    Thanks for the recipe.
    I am hypothyroid and if I eat too many fruits I gain weight so easy, I think this will be a good breakfast or snack bread.
    I liked your article on turning 50! For me, working with kids and trying to look on the bringt side helps keep me feeling young… I’m 51. :-)

    Thanks for the recipe. I will say that the bread turned out very moist. The consistency was excellent. However, if I make it again I would need to double to triple the amount of lemon zest, sweetener and probably vanilla. It seemed very bland to me. I made no alterations to the recipe.

    Hi Elana,

    I am a big fan with two of your books…Thank you! I have a question about equipment, not only for this recipe, but in general. I do not own a food processor (I gave it away after not using it, ever, in 25 years). I do have a stand mixer, a hand mixer, and my mother’s old Osterizer blender which still works beautifully. Will any of these work?

    Thanks,
    Christy

      Christy, thanks for your comment! I’m so happy to hear you are enjoying my books! I would guess, because I don’t own one, that your best bet would be to experiment with a stand mixer :-)

    Made this with three modifications. I omitted the egg protein and salt all together and rather than add the vanilla stevia, I added organic vanilla extract. It was fantastic. Thank you for your inspiration and for sharing all of your wonderful recipes. You are AMAZING ?

    Hi Elana,
    I just made this. I love the flavor and everything, but mine came out so dry that I needed to grab some water to keep from getting it stuck in my throat! I baked it for the least amount of time. I wonder if there is anything I can do to make it more moist next time. Maybe try cutting down the baking time? But it did look beautiful with just slight browning on the edges. Maybe I just need to dunk it like you mentioned…?

    Elana! You are SO my hero! It pains that many of my fellow readers DON’T take the responsibility for seeking out nutritional information they desire…there are dozens of “apps” (I use “my fitness pal”) and even websites were one can input ingredients and divide by the number of servings and, viola! Your nutritional info per serving is at your fingertips! Thank you for ALL THAT you do!

    I am so happy I came across this recipe! I have been on the keto diet for almost a month now and have really started to get into cooking and baking (usually I fail though lol). Before this diet one of my favorite things were lemon blueberry muffins, and I think I can say I finally found a replacement. However, I did switch it up a bit. Instead of egg white protein powder, I used unflavored Isopure (a pretty common protein powder I love) and Swerve artificial sugar to make it a bit sweeter. With this diet I usually try to create totally new things, as imitating carb and sugar loaded foods haven’t worked out, yet this bread was fantastic! I stored it in the feezer pre-sliced and in the morning just pop it in the toaster with some cream cheese or butter. I will be making again!

    Hi Elana, This recipe looks great! I’m excited to try it. I’m a courageous one in the kitchen and plan to alter the recipe slightly with ingredients I already have on hand so have a question about the egg protein powder. What is its function in this recipe? Since the recipe also calls for eggs, I didn’t think it was for binding… I am considering trying flax meal, but wanted to double check what you are using it for first. Thanks in advance for the response! Also, salt–is your sea salt already finely ground? Or do you use the rocks and grind it into your recipes? I have several different salts on hand, but typically use table salt when baking. Just wondering the consistency of the salt you used.

    Hi there, I am so excited to try these recipes. My husband and I just started the keto diet a few weeks ago. We both have a sweet tooth and are eager to try out these recipes. Do you post the calories, carbs and proteins for each recipe somewhere?

      I made the Keto Blueberry Lemon bread. It is awesome. I didn’t have cream of tartar so substituted 2 tsp. of baking powder. I also added in about 1/4 cup lemon juice for extra lemon flavor. I used some stevia in it. I did not put in a lot as I am not a real fan of stevia. Could you please provide me the nutritional facts – i.e carbs, fat, protein for this loaf as I am just starting a keto diet again as I seem to have gone out of ketosis. Had lost 7 lb. in almost three weeks and then I must have eaten too many carbs. Not sure what happened but I need to get back on it. Thank you.
