Depending on your geographic location, certain times of the year Blueberries are plentiful and a great low carb and low-calorie snack for you are your family. They can be eaten alone as a quick snack or they can be added to all kinds of recipes that will make your family feel like they have hit the lottery. They have all kinds of great nutrients such as Fiber, Vitamin K, Vitamin C, and Manganese. They are known as a “superfood” due to their benefits in regulating blood sugar and aiding in brain and heart health.
Blueberries are plentiful where I live in the summer and a favorite family activity is to go to a blueberry farm and pick our own. The kids love it, I love it, and you get to come home with pints of plump, juicy blueberries while also connecting with nature. I think it’s important to be conscious of where your food comes from, and picking our own blueberries in the summer is just one way to do that.
There are SO many things you can make with blueberries, from snacking on fresh blueberries throughout the day to adding them to your keto pancakes or other breakfasts and, of course, desserts. Finding the best keto blueberry recipes has been one of my goals this summer and after testing several, this Keto Lemon Blueberry Bread is currently at the top of the list.
Baking this tasty Lemon Blueberry Bread treat for your family will make you the number one mom on the block but allow you the peace of mind that you are providing healthy options for your kids and yourself to “indulge” in.

I also find that dessert bread like this Keto Lemon Blueberry Bread is great for gift-giving – I often make a second loaf to gift to a neighbor, friend or family member as a “thinking of you” reminder or even to bring as a hostess gift.
