Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Pan: Grease a 9x5 loaf pan or line with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, granulated sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  3. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, eggs, and lemon zest. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Fold together until just combined.
  5. Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for about 50 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Cool the Bread: Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
