Keto Iced Gingerbread Loaf Recipe

There are some flavors that go hand-in-hand with the holiday season, and gingerbread is one of them.

And gingerbread is one of those flavors that bring back memories of winter holidays when I was growing up. 

So, of course, I’m going to create a Keto version of one of my favorite childhood treats! And I’m happy to announce that it tastes just as good (if not better) than the gingerbread loaves that my mother used to make.

Even better, each thick slice is just 3 g net carbs, which means you can completely indulge over the holidays without any guilt.

Recipe Baking Tips and Suggestions

My Keto Iced Gingerbread Loaf is super easy to make. However, if you are new to Keto baking, it might look a bit intimidating, and I understand that!

So, here are a few baking tips to make sure your gingerbread loaf comes out perfectly. 

Be sure to sift your coconut flour before measuring. Coconut flour has a tendency to form hard lumps, which you don’t want in your baked goods. 

For the most accurate measurements, be sure to weigh your almond flour and coconut flour with a food scale instead of using measuring cups.

However, if you don’t have a food scale, use a spoon to scoop the flours into your measuring cup. 

Make sure your ghee and eggs are room temperature before using them. Typically, I take both out of my refrigerator about an hour before I start baking to let them get to room temperature.

And for a dairy-free loaf, you can use coconut oil instead of ghee. I would suggest using refined coconut oil instead of unrefined (also known as virgin) coconut oil because it has a much more mild taste.

After you bake the loaf, be sure to let it cool completely in the pan before slicing it. If you slice the loaf while it’s still warm, it’ll likely have a mushy texture.

And you can absolutely skip the icing for a less sweet loaf, but it really makes it into a decadent dessert loaf.
