Now it’s no secret here that I’m a fan of keto breakfast or quick bread recipes. They obviously make for a great morning treat but they’re also amazing as an afternoon snack or even dessert.

I’ve made lots of different keto breads over the years, and they’ve really become a staple for our family.

So when I realized that I hadn’t made a raspberry keto bread, I had to get to work creating this recipe!

I knew that I wanted to have lots of raspberries and, of course, sugar-free lemon icing for the top of the bread!

There’s just something about the lemon flavor that pairs so well with tart raspberries. It really takes this to the next level.

Plus, I think a raspberry gluten-free bread isn’t complete without a little sprinkling of lemon zest on top! You’re welcome.

How To Make Keto Raspberry Bread

Making this healthy raspberry bread recipe is pretty simple and quick! You’ll begin by lining the bottom of your loaf pan with parchment paper, letting the ends extend up the sides.

This allows you to easily lift the loaf out of the pan after baking with no sticking!

Then you’ll sift the almond flour, baking powder, and salt together and set them aside in a large mixing bowl.

Next, you’ll beat the butter, cream cheese, sugar substitute, vanilla extract, and lemon extract together using an electric mixer in a separate bowl.

To these wet ingredients, you’ll add the eggs one at a time making sure to mix well after each addition.

Once you’ve incorporated all of the eggs, add all the dry ingredients you sifted together and combine them well. Lastly, you’ll mix in the raspberries and pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan.

The sugar-free raspberry bread will bake for about 40 to 50 minutes until golden brown.

You’ll need to let the keto bread cool for about 15 minutes before removing it from the pan and then let it cool completely on a baking rack before icing.

Making the sugar-free lemon icing is as easy as combining the confectioner’s sugar substitute, heavy cream, lemon juice, lemon extract, and salt in a small bowl.

If you’re icing is too thick then you can add an additional tablespoon of heavy cream until it runs smoothly. Drizzle the icing over the completely cooled bread and top with lemon zest.

This keto raspberry bread stores well in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the refrigerator or in the freezer for up to 3 weeks, although you probably won’t have any leftovers once your friends or family try it!

That’s good news if you ask me because, even if they are not on a diet where they are counting their grams of carbs, they can reap the benefits of enjoying juicy raspberries without the worry of a blood sugar rush.

Best Sugar Substitute Options 

I intentionally didn’t make this sugar-free raspberry lemon bread too sweet because the glaze adds the perfect amount of sweetness.  

When it comes to choosing your low-carb sweetener, I have several low-carb options that work well with this keto quick bread recipe.

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later!

I really like Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener because the texture is spot on and because there is barely any aftertaste.  

This is a great one, especially if you are new to sugar substitutes, because it mimics sugar the most, in my book.

I’m also partial to Swerve, an erythritol blend, although you should keep in mind that it does have a bit more of a cooling aftertaste, which some people dislike. 

Alternatively, you could also use a stevia and erythritol-based brand like Pyure. 

This is if you prefer to use stevia in your baked goods. If you go this route, you need to reduce the amount by half since it is twice as sweet. 

Lastly, if you can’t easily find a more natural sugar substitute, you can also use Splenda with great success.

I know not everyone would agree with me here, and I respect that, but in my book, it’s still better than regular sugar. 

However, when it comes to the keto lemon icing, you will have to use a confectioner’s sugar substitute. Both Lakanto and Swerve have great ones.
