Coming to terms with the fact that my body feels much better when I’m consuming grain-free foods has become more apparent the older I get. When I consume grains, processed, and sugary foods I notice immediate joint pain and stiffness. To make this lifestyle change easier I began incorporating some healthy low carb, grain-free treats to help me and anyone willing to try these recipes indulge in fluffy yumminess without health consequences. So keep reading if you want to fill your kitchen with sweet, blueberry and citrus aromas.
I’ve made these moist little loafs several times now and are an absolute go-to for a quick keto-friendly treat. Outside of the low carb benefits of just 3 net carbs, these loaves are also easy to pack and just as good cold, which is great for traveling. Now, what are you waiting for let the yummy baking session begin!

spray. Drop one scoop of batter into a loaf. Next, top the batter with a few blueberries, then spoon another scoop of batter on top. Gently push a few more blueberries on top into the batter and prepare to bake. 5. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover the pan with foil. Bake for another 15 minutes, this will allow the loaves to steam and ensure it cooks all the way through. For a little more browning, remove the foil and allow it to bake for another 5 minutes for a total of 30 minutes. Allow the loaves to completely cool before removing them from the pan, which will keep them from falling apart while transferring them.
