Banana bread is a favorite comfort food, but I needed it to be low carb. You can enjoy the flavors of banana and walnuts in this low carb banana bread.
You will need two bowls, 1.5 quart loaf pan, measuring cups and spoons, mixing spatula, knife.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour the loaf pan.
Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir well. A whisk works well if there are clumps. Make a well in the center.
Stir together sugar substitute, coconut oil, and eggs. Pour into well in dry ingredients.
Stir until just moistened. If it is too dry, add extra water a tbsp at a time until you are able to stir.
Stir in bananas and nuts.
Spoon batter into loaf pan. Bake for 50 or 55 minutes. Check it during baking. If the top is getting too brown, lay a piece of aluminum foil on top.
When done, a wooden pick in the center should come out clean. Cool on a wire rack in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and continue cooling. Makes one loaf, 8 servings.
