I live in Washington. We have TONS of applesš
Our apple tree finally gave us apples this year! Of course my kids ate quite a few raw, but the majority were chopped up and made into sauce!
When I first thought of how to use this fresh unsweetened applesauce in my recipes I thought of bread or muffins. The bread turned out amazing! I also tried as muffins and it worked as well!
The kids and I gobbled these up fast! They were REALLY moist and melted in your mouth tender crumbā¤
I thought this time I would try out my applesauce bread recipe but make it keto!! It worked!!
So I stored it in the fridge overnight and I am making oven french toast out of it!
I figured out net carbs from the ingredients that contain them: applesauce, almond butter, and coconut flour. I did not add in the monkfruit since it is a 0 net amount.
The full recipe contains 71g net carbs. You can make this in a bread pan, as shown, cut into 10 generous pieces at 7.1g carb each.
You can also make muffins and divide accordingly.
Bake muffins at 350F for 20 min until toothpick tested clean.
I have also made jumbo muffins before baking for 35 min plus 10 min cooling time in the pan.

Notes
Can peanut butter and Stevia be used as replacements?
It may! I have not tried it though! Usually nut butters are interchangeable. On stevia, it would work. Maybe 1/4 tsp. would work!
Can this be made into muffins?
Yes! It will take about 20 to 25 minutes. You want it to spring back in the middleš
The directions are incorrect.
When do you add the applesauce and nut butter?
Oh my,so sorry about that! It should be mixed in before the dry ingredients. I have added the instruction to the recipe. Thank you for pointing that out! I would love to hear how the recipe turns out for youš Thanks for visiting my site!
The recipe was delicious!
I was concerned that there were so few “dry ingredients” but it set up well and had a very nice consistency.
Great way to use up leftover applesauce!
Oh how wonderful!! I am so excited it turned out for youšThank you for returning to give your experience with my recipeā¤
