The Keto Lady Cinnamon Loaf

Ingredients:

- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened protein powder (optional, for added structure)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp xanthan gum (this helps with texture)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup erythritol (or any keto-friendly sweetener)
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any keto-friendly milk substitute)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Cinnamon Swirl:
- 1/4 cup erythritol (or any keto-friendly sweetener)
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp butter, melted

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, protein powder (if using), baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Mix well.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, erythritol, eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until the batter is smooth.
5. Prepare the cinnamon swirl by mixing erythritol, ground cinnamon, and melted butter in a small bowl.
6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Drizzle half of the cinnamon swirl mixture over the batter. Pour the remaining batter on top and then drizzle the remaining cinnamon swirl on top.
7. Use a knife to swirl the cinnamon mixture into the batter, creating a marble effect.
8. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean or with just a few crumbs.
9. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your Keto Cinnamon Loaf with a cup of tea or coffee! Remember to store leftovers in an airtight container.
